Default Said goodbye to my car

Well, Friday night I had the goodbye talk with my S2000. I picked up an 2005 Evo 8 MR edition. I was sad to see the Honda go, but I have sweated the Evo MR ever since the first time I played Gran Turismo, so I decided to get one. So if anyone knows of someone looking for a nice S, my old one is at D' Ambrosio Mitsubishi in Downingtown.

P.S. Maybe Brad will still let me go for valley "cruises" with him...

Maybe if we all ignore him the non-owner will go away.

Absolutely... I'd like to smack you around in that Evo! JK! I actually have been sweatin that car too! I wanna see it! Just in time for the summer too

I wanted to ask you too... I was cruising on Owls Nest road the other day and started hanging with this guy in a debadged Yellow Porsche. The license plate said "Euro RS" Speaking of smacking people around, he was doing a fair bit of it to me... I almost hit him at one point cuz he braked so hard... I thought our brakes were good but that dude went from 90 to 0 mph in what seemed like 100 feet! I felt a few clicks of my ABS and then I started choking cuz I thought I was gonna hit him....

That car was a F'n Beast! You know him? He turned into Centerville Reserve and gave me a wave.

Hey, thanks for all your wishes of good luck. So... how do I like the Evo??? Honestly, I have never loved driving a car so much. Some of you may know that I am a Porsche tech, so I am priviledged enough to get to drive some of the most highly regarded sports cars in the world, but, the Evo is way more fun than them. I absolutely love it. Before owning my two S2000s, I had a '01 Audi S4, it was fast but didn't handle that well, to me the Evo is like the best parts of the S4 and the S2000 put together, an incredible machine.

Brad, I think I may know who that is, but not sure. Was it an older car, or newer?

I still have no clue how to post pics on here, so sorry...
