Welcome to EvoM. I wrench on cars all the time too, usually its on muscle cars but I like working on Evos as well. I love the '06 body style as well. In fact its my favorite one out of all of them. I am starting to warm up to the '08's but I still like the '06 the best. Good luck on finding one.

yeah i like the front of th 08s but the back just seems like there is to much bumper......maybe its because the taillights are smaller but the backs seem wierd to me....and are the widths the same?? i think the 08s seem skinnier
