Drive Safe Guys
Just passing this along.
One of my best friends just wrecked his 9 MR recently.
The day AFTER getting it back from the paint shop... he was doing some spirited driving, came up on a hard turn and lost it.
Literally a day after he got it back from the paint shop.
It's pretty heartbreaking because he's been a huge enthusiast and owned the car for almost 4 years.
But at the end of the day he came out with no injurys.

Its good he is ok, unfortunate for the car. I found the evo is a bit like when I was riding bikes, it tempts you to go a little harder to see what you got. Tracking helps to know how far to the edge you can go too.

Happens a lot in our world. So sad. I remind myself from time to time that I'm driving a precious car and if I want to do anything stupid, do it in a go-kart.
I truly hope he improves from this and this becomes his last crash.

Yeah, it's a shame. Just going to help him fight and get what it's worth so he can move on to another one.
This really opened his eyes that **** can go downhill pretty quickly, and that it's not always worth it.
At the end of the day he came out perfectly fine.
Hopefully someone in here sees this and takes an extra second to be careful 👍.
Thanks for reading.

Well, insurance ended up totaling the car out and gave him 14k (...way too low imo)
But he's came to terms with it. If any of you are in Cali keep a look out for it. It should be in the San Bernardino area.
He decided not to buy it back and is just letting it go.
It's an 06 MR.
Full bolt-ons.
272s
Full exhaust
MR interior (good shape)
Stock suspension
Stock internals/valve train
New 5 speed
Freshly powdercoated Brembos (cusco blue)
Aem gauges (afr, oil, boost)
Greddy profec
Stock turbo.
That's all the notable stuff off the top of my head if someone tries to buy it up.
