Back in a evolution again

To be more exact. I bought this car off the showroom floor in May of 2004. I traded it in and hated myself for doing so in 2007. Recently I saw an ad locally for an evo with same VIN and looked just my car back in the day. After running carfax I easily found out it was my car!
Long story short.. I bought my 2004 AS Evolution GSR today.

It must be weird seeing the car with so much age on it now lol. Why would someone ditch the buddy club 272's for the HKS 272's... Wouldn't that be a downgrade? lol
