1) The car makes you want to drive it at all times.
2) Great cornering ability. Can surprise the unsuspecting Porche and BMW owners at will.
3) Exhilarating acceleration.
Dislikes
1) The wing blocks the rear view. But I'd rather have it.
2) Can not think of any thing else.
3) I am still trying hard.......but can not think of another dislike.
Would I buy it again after 10 months & 8,000 miles of the EVO? .....Only one difficult decision to be made here. ....Which color?

I agree the SS clutch line is a great first mod. It's cheap and it completely fixed the one bad thing I would have had to say about my black Evo. This is a required mod IMO.
BTW I love the fact that I have a low spoiler. No view obstruction, and no unwanted attention/harassing.

I've tried to restrict this to things that woudn't hurt the experience if they were fixed. (I think it's silly to complain about the ride of the Evo, for example).
You've gotta love the Evo, but here's my list anyway:
1) big turning circle (and I own a Suburban, so I don't make this comment lightly)
2) optical quality of the side and rearview mirrors (I really want to know who is behind me)
3) turn signals often don't self cancel (they obviously didn't redesign this to take the faster ratio into account)
4) lack of cruise control (on decent interstates, this isn't a bad cruiser when you need to make a long run)
5) fuel capacity (when I'm in the boost a lot, it feels like I am always stopping)
6) noise (yeah, it's stiff, but they could still do better - particularly the rear window noise in cold weather)

Gas Tank too small (fill up every 4 days)

On a side note, does anyone know of a good dealer in AZ to buy an EVO. I am looking at Spring 2005 (After I get married) on possibly getting one. I see that Mark Mitsubishi is on the black-list... thanks!

1) The handling
2) Its looks
3) The bang for the buck/value for money
I don't have any dislikes - however, these can be improved:
1) the stereo - would be great to have 6 disc changer as stock
2) Clearer mirrors
3) better quality control i.e. the rattles and squeaks
