Don't have an evo yet(hopefully within a month or two) but I do all of these things to my gsx. Wash at least once a week, wax, spray detailer in between. At school in the parking garage there are 2 corner spots next to the elevator with "lined" spacing. I park over onto the lines about a foot and a half and that puts me almost 2'-3' from the line of the adjacent parking spot. I go to school at 8am just for that. And like some one else said. I ALWAYS look back at it, whether it be in my garage, parking space etc. I also get the gf "you care about your car more than me" comment.

The evo will see the same treatment.

I take off at least once a day as fast as possible without dropping the clutch. I am pretty easy on the brakes, but I take curves, corners and on/off ramps as fast as possible. I wash it when it gets dirty, but one of the cool things about a yellow car is that I can go 3-4 days longer between washes than if I had a red car. I've had my car since 2003 and it has seen every winter. Anybody who doesn't let their Evo see snow is crazy.
