I did have a cop stop in the showroom last night to check it out. He pulled someone over infront of my dealership and mine sitting outside caught his eye. He thought it rocked.

Another side note:
I wonder if www.bangevo.com is taken.

cops floowing me is almost a daily occurence in my S2000; it's prety rare where i live so cops think i'm an easy target... too bad for them i rarely speed on local roads.. I'm hoping to avoid alot of the ricer rev contests at stop lights in the evo but looks like i bought the wrong car to avoid attention. oh well i love laughing at people reving their engines at me. can't say i'm any better, i drive a '86 Camry in the winter time with a huge whole in the exhaust, i turn more heads in that thing then the S. not to mention i have yet to win a drag race with my 95hp beast

Well I must admit that it's mostly the way that people present themselves.. If you look like a thug, you'll most likely get treated like one... I personnaly could care less cause I don't usually judge people by the way they look... "good up-bringing I guess" But co-workers are really into that.. Rookies.. Anyways, there's no way to hide when you drive such a nice ride like the EVO... Good luck....

Unreal.
My roommate says it's a POS and would never buy one. I obviously don't care what he thinks. I did tell him to put his V6 Camaro on the line and we'll see who's drivin the POS. HAHAHA
One thing I did notice is excessive diff noise, or is it trany. Give it gas in 4th and let off and listen as the RPS decrease. It sounds a bit crunchy.
