whats up,
Ive been saving over 6 years to purchase an evo and finally have the money to pay for the car, mods, insurance and gas. however, this will be my first car, not the first car ive driven (driven beamer,cadillac, kia etc.) but it will be my first owned car.
Please dont nag me about me crashing, or being irresponsible, etc. because in the end i will still purchase the evo.

If you have any helpful advice on it being a first car and if it is hard to maintain (monthly maintenance fees, etc) that would be awesome. evo ix or viii???

also, if you have any knowledge the cheapest places to purchase an evo (provinces in canada or states in the US) that would be great too.

my first post,
thanks

 

Most people will say evo 9. IMO if you find either in good condition for the right price i would jump on it. These cars are cheap but the maintenance can be expensive and repairs are just painful. What ever budget you have for mods you should just hang on to for the first 6 months or so just incase any big repairs/maintenance costs do come up. Do you plan on working on the car yourself, or by a shop? If its a shop do alot of homework on tracking down a good, reputable shop that has experience with these cars.

 

I plan to work on it myself but also shops for bigger mods.
and yea thanks for the info and the maintenace. i plan to not do anything to the car for about 4-8 months.
