I personally plan on keeping my evo. once it's paid off, i can do what i want to do and set it as the weekend show car for the summer.

OR

What car did you chose after your EVO? Why?

I can keep it as a daily and buy the following:

97Acura NSX
98Toyota Supra
05Lotus Elise
06G35
06m35x
09Audi A4


I know it's personal preference but persuade me which one you would but and which ones you wouldn't.

I torn between all. I would obviously look into making sure the older models have been well taken care of.




ONLY ADULTS with an answer please answer. I don't want to hear this or that.

I would say NSX just on the look factor and how rare you see those on the road. Not the fastest car, but it'll get you *****es.

Audi or supra would be my choice. I've had an itch to mess with another good platform, since I've been in the 4g63 for almost 10 years.

Why would you say audi then?

Not to feed into the stereotypical "Audi sucks" category, but... They're not exactly a "good" platform.

Unless you are into things such as:
Numb steering
Expensive parts
Retardly hard to work on (IE: having to drop the sub frame to get the turbos out)
+ numerous other "Fun" things

Audi's are nice dailies though. I would never mod one again in my life.

Perhaps I should of said "different" rather than good.

dropping the subframe for the turbos was only on the older 2.7t s4 and a6's

**krist0kes also on this site is one of Audi's gawds and a very good friend so I don't think messing with an Audi wouldn't be a bad platform for myself since he can fine tune it for me with ease. only 5 minute drive.


i like the rare factors of the nsx, lotus and supra.

I don't think much mods need to be done for a weekend car unless i want to keep the evo as the weekend car.

the other three would be good or decent candidates for daily drivers and more "family" oriented.

I have two kids and a wife.


i have the evo and the minivan so i don't think the wife would complain too much if i chose the rare three.




**has anyone moved on from the evo?

If I choose from your list I'd have to say the Supra, if it's TT that is.

Why, my father had a '93 Supra TT when I was younger. I loved that car especially after driving it many times and did something stupid. He sold it before I turned 16

Hopefully I would like to purchase one in the future.

Sold my Evo last year and purchased a Supra TT.

Very very different cars.


The comparison between the two has been made on these forums.


Don't regret selling the Evo, but would love to be able to get another to park next to the Supra.


Unfortunately picked up a 2010 Toyota Venza to park alongside the Supra .

I would probably get a 4 door awd turbo BMW 335Xi with a 6 spd. Mod it and keep everything under warranty if anything goes wrong. Helps since I am a BMW tech.

I'd go with a 2011 CTS-V Coupe. Classy, comfortable, power and RWD

I'm thinking of picking up a Miata next Spring and/or (maybe) a Boss 302 a year later. I also want to have a look at an Abarth Fiat 500 when it comes stateside. A Corvette Grand Sport is interesting, as well, but it doesn't really juice my lizard. Its steering needs work, but it kind of is an option. I really like the Boxter Spyder, but DI scares the crap out of me and I'm not ready to sink this kind of cash into a car whose motor may have issues down the line. So, essentially, we're down to the Miata as the only semi-sure thing.

I havent come to that point yet. Im still paying the Evo off, but next year I will look into a new car to buy.
But question for you is do you really need your second car to be rocky like your evo. Why dont you go for an BMW or Mercedes. You already have a weekend car that you can hook up and make it faster then NSXs and Supras, but during the week you want something comfortable to drive. Im looking into Jaguar XF or Ranger Rover. I think it will be Jagur XF.

popdakebin

lol, this is exactly what my co-worker did, but he didn't have an evo before. He picked up a convertible supra a long time ago and then bought a venza when he needed a second car. So all you supra people, you'll end up buying a venza. fyi.
