New to the Evo world!

Whats going on guys? Just purchased my first Evo on sunday. Ive been stalking the forum for the past 3 months while on the hunt for the closest to perfect evo I can find. After searching all over the tri-state and even considering flying down south to pick up a car, I found a pretty mint condition 06 TB MR SE with 72K miles. All stock except for a 3in Perrin exhaust and a set of enkei rpf1s wrapped in bridgestone potenza RE760s & a jdm back bumper. Paint is in excellent condition. Interior is next to mint with very little wear. Tranny shifts as smooth as it gets from what my mechanic tells me (Coming from a 135i) and Im super excited to see where she takes me. The plan is to get to know the car and keep doing my research. Most likely FBO and a tune before summer. Oh, and a set of oem evo 8 wheels for the winter.

-Will post better pictures this weekend when I get a chance to detail

Welcome, and congrats!

Once you start throwing on some bolt-ons and a good tune, it will transform the car.

Congratulations on your purchase! I actually looked at this car as well and talked to the previous owner (he's on here) so I know quite a bit about this car. Let me know if you have any questions
