the majority of this board needs to return all their mods and use all that money to attend HPDE's....i promise they will be driving their stock Evo's a lot faster then their heavily modded evo's.

I'm still convinced I got my money's worth in purchasing an Evo. Brembo brakes that'll cut speed quickly, Recaro seats that are really supportive even with my small frame, lightweight forged BBS wheels, aerodynamically designed (for stability, not for high speed), great suspension, AWD, so on and so forth. Even the Brembo calipers change colors to a pink to make the car look different over time, j/k. I also like the fact I don't see 10 Evos every single day like I did with my RSX. It bugged the hell out of me whenever I saw some old lady in a RSX doing 50mph on the freeway because she's going through a midlife crisis and I have to suffer the embarrassment of driving the same car as a result.

I do have rattles in the interior but this is something I expected. Yes the interior isn't the nicest in the price range but if I wanted a nice interior, I would've purchased a different car.

You can't beat an Evo for the "bang for the buck" element with the exception of the WRX an d STi.
