Exactly why evo owners have a bad name.

Maybe you should look into getting a bus pass.

I love (loved) that car
lol sorry I haven't kept up with the resale value on Evos. I was just be optimistic since I also own an 03. Damn highschool kids can afford Evos since they're so cheap now.

sounds like at least 15k worth of damage....and to figure out the totaled situation...which i think it is already. look up the blue book trade in value for your car and subtract 2k and if the damage exceeds that amount then it is definitely totaled. sorry to hear

You are part of the reason why insurance rates are so high.

Sorry to hear about the car.

From the sounds of it you came out of the accident physically OK, which is the most important thing.


I just hope you weren't on the stock Advans considering the mileage (36,000) on your car.

Please people if live in an area that gets freezing weather and drive your Evo in this weather, please invest in a set of winter tires or good all-seasons.

DO NOT drive on summer tires.
