You know you drive an evo when people forget its a sedan with 4 doors.
Or when your buddies get in the car and ask "why is there a childs car seat back here?" followed by "You let your SON ride IN THIS EVO?!!??"

But I wouldn't be allowed to do that at a Union building. Not because someone would vandalize the car...the first few rows are "Ford Only" parking or you get towed.

I guess it's their property so their rules but the few times I had to visit Union buildings it was annoying to find an open spot right up front that I couldn't use.

I haven't heard anything about vandalism though from Ford Plants. Those were a bunch of hard working guys who actually showed interest in a serious purpose built machine. All the respect and more for those guys and the jobs they do.

Chevy tried hard with the turbo Cobalt. The car handles very well, it's still the fastest "production" fwd car around the ring. Those guys are breaking 400wtq on the stock turbo, which is smaller than a 9 turbo. The only thing that is holding that car back is FWD. Not bad at all for a car that stickered for $25k, and many people got new for less than $20k. It's the fastest sport compact GM has ever made.

Haha. I am suprised by all the comments this stirred up. Maybe I am just hated. But I moved to MI about 6 months ago and get yelled at all the time because of my car.

I never really had that before in vegas. But there most people buy imports and steer away from domestics. They are just happy here in MI with thier "American cars"

When you drive to go see a car show, but when they see you roll up, they ask you to enter the show.

When the only question people ask you is "Is your evo fixed yet?"

When your evo is on jackstands more then it is its own 4 wheels...
