well
its such a waste
i admit that its valuable and probably one of the few that have such low mileage
but
its not like you are a car collector
you are pretty rich yourself judging from the car you have
might as well just enjoy the process
life is short, enjoy while you can

Thank you everyone for all your reply's
But make the story short, i am not driving this one, i have drove and rocked all my previous cars and project cars that i have owed and time came that i have decided to purchase this brand new evo and just leave it there. And for all of you who keep saying to drive it, i am in a look out for a used evo that i would like to use daily and enjoy it.
Take care everyone, will hopefully have some pics up soon.

^ Don't drive it. Take good care of it. The Evo has a hardcore reputation in motorsports. It's been completely dominant in time attack, and the fastest Tuskuba lap time is held by an Evo.
Don't forget, not too many were made.
When we are old men, the last few Evos are going to be worth a lot of money.

I would say, drive it once a week .. keep it in good condition. Out of your "other" cars, which do you drive most often? Is it more awesome than the evo?
I would have to drive the Evo everyday .. if i didnt have an Evo, that drive to work every morning would be even worse .. I could be in the worst mood possible and see my evo or sit in it and it all goes away .. the car makes the day.

Okay- I also bought my evo new in 05, I said to myself I will never mod her, only drive her on rare occasions etc. I kept my promise for 4 whole years, she was actually boring me and I was actually thinking of selling her several times. Then on her 4th aniversary I changed my mind and started the mod process. Till this day I regret not modding her from day one, I just can't believe how fast and good she drives compared to stock, four ****ing years stock and I regret it 100%.
Do yourself a favor and just do some minor mods, nothing major maybe around 350whp range. At this level your evo will be in supercar performance mode.
Your evo is not special, if it had 0 miles then yes don't do anything, but your evo is considered used and with low miles.
Go and do some small mods, you will thank everyone after.

gl whatever u do

Lets take another example. Integra Type R...yes it has held SOME value, but nowhere near the 28k price tag that it started at. But just that BS plain jane Evo 8?? You're high if you really think that it will be worth "a lot of money" lol
