New to the forum...new to Evo's
Hey everybody, I'm new to the forum and thought that I would introduce myself here. I actually have been lurking around for a few months, but finally joined the other day and I have to say that this forum has a great wealth of knowledge and resources, a tribute to the quality of members. I purchased my first evo, a 2006 SE with 24 miles on the clock about 2 days ago and what a great car! Fantastic handling, better than my old Porsche Turbo FTW! My past cars included a 1997 M3, 1987 Porsche 944 Turbo, and 1999 MB E55 AMG and I will have to say that this car tops them all, I absolutely love it. I look forward to reading future write-ups, stories and just plain random stuff and hope to contribute as well. Well, without further ado, the pics

The E55 was a great car, it really was. It had the power to move and great looks and a very nice interior, but it was just too much maintenance ($1000 for front brakes, $400 for spark plugs, etc etc.), and honestly it just wasn't sporty enough. I couldn't throw it into corners, I couldn't take it to the Auto X's which I really missed, and the auto tranny was lacking.
