Smile Back in an Evo again

I will try to make this short. Back in 2003 and 2004 I had a yellow 03 Evo. For 2005 I switched to a red 05 Mustang GT. Always missed the Evo. January 2006 I totaled the Mustang (someone pulled out from a side road in front of me). Now I have a new 06 Evo MR. Just wanted to tell everyone, it is good to be back!

Welcome back and stay back!

By the way, how was it switching from evo to mustang. Not that I want to, but there are a ton of people that are thinking of switching from an evo to a domestic, and it would be good to let them know if they are making a big mistake (which I think it is).

I stand corrected. Just looked at the window sticker laying here, it says Graphite Gray. Maybe the accident shook me up more than I thought. The doctor just told me I could start back driving last Monday, so I went out and bought it. Thanks for the correcton.

The 05 Mustang was fun with the zex nitrous an a couple of other mods on it, but you can put the same money into mods for an Evo and it will pull harder. Unfortunately with my new Evo MR, I don't really know yet how good it is going to run. The doctor said I can drive, but I still have to be careful with my broken back (wearing a back brace for now).

I hope you get better soon to enjoy that MR. BTW, do you know how capable these engines are when it comes to modding? With the new IXs, they say that a flash, exhaust, intake, and mbc will get you over 300 whp.

I have read some of the reviews with only minor mods. Can't wait to get started.
