Going to get an Evo X. Dunno what I'm getting myself into, honestly!

Hey all,

First of all, let me make one thing clear: I don't know much about cars. Lol..

I'm going to college soon, and since I live up north I've been looking into getting an AWD car. I hate SUVs, love turning heads, and to be frank, the Evo X's design KILLED it for me

So, I was wondering... is an Evo X just too much of a car for me? I'll be parking it a lot in the schools parking lots, and when at home I'll have a garage, but I'm wondering if TOO MUCH attention could be.. a bad thing? Will the car force my attention its way too much? Also how many of you guys use your Evo X on a daily basis, for regular, ordinary things (like going grocery shopping, or something - lol).

I already know I can afford one, I just don't know what to expect or even what kind of trim to get. Many people are telling me that the MR Touring isn't worth it for the price, but I'm loving the interior (heated seats too!) + no giant spoiler.. Also, was wondering, if I remove the spoiler on a MR, would the car still run nicely?

Thanks for your time guys. I'm definitely a noob in need of help!!!

I don't have one yet, But have test driven one before, & you do get a lot of attention it's a big head turner, I don't think you'll get bad attention unless you drive bad which makes sense, & no taking the wing of won't make the car run any worse, You could go ahead and get the MR - Touring; It comes with sunroof, small lip spoiler on the trunk, heated all leather seats. Just check out the Mitsubishi site and build your own and see the specifications in each Evolution model, it's your best bet at understanding everything, Good luck!

I have, and I'm just really wondering if an evo would be too much for a college-kid's lifestyle.. but i'm starting to think that i should just go BIG or go home and get the damn thing. lol.
