thinking about getting an EVO
Well needless to say i'mnot happy with teh performance of my current car (2003 tiburon) not that i dont like it, i love how it looks, but man it is really lacking in the ball$ area.
So yesterday i went looking on the net at the STI and EVO, and over all i like the styling of the EVO better and after calling around the best price on the STI i found was $32,200, and $29,300 for the EVO. So i think with the cost difference i will probably end up with an EVO if i do get a new car. But i'd like to know what ppl here who one one already think about it.. any regrets? and problems? No cw i would assume so far

The 2 biggest thing you have to worry about thus far (that all of us Evo owners have discovered anyways) is clutch and rear drivers door alignment.
To solve the clutch issue, get a stainless steel line installed. You can buy them from a few shops. Do a search to learn more.
The second problem: make sure the Evo you buy has the drivers rear door aligned like the passengers rear door. Many Evo's rear doors are misaligned, causing premature paint chips. Any dealership should be able to take care of that for you.
But other than those precautionary measures, you shan't be dissappointed!
