I'm in Forest Hills, Queens....

I think I am the only LY EVO around here....

On summer days you'll see me cruising up and down Cross Bay Blvd, Woodhaven Blvd frequently, and also out to LI on the GCP, Northern State

Most likely it was me... I drive up and down Woodhaven all the time in my beater and in my EVO and never really seen another LY EVO.

I have seen silver, black, and white EVO's on woodhaven, either being driven by Asian or older males with gray hair...but they were pretty much either stock or just have BPU's (basic performance upgrades)

As far as shops go I have gone to TurboTrix, I wont go to anyone else, as they have always treated my EVO right and have never done me wrong.

For minor work here and there I take my EVO to my brothers BMW dealership in NJ... he is a BMW tech, and we use the dealerships equipment, lifts, alignment rack etc etc... and work on my car together on weekends here on his off time.

I know there are plenty of us here in queens, but I feel special as I havent seen many LY's in the Queens area.... especially since I have an 05 LY makes me feel more unique

yeah I'm home and in my jammies.... I'm not going back out in the cold...

It wont be a lemon. It was probably abused a little and not mainained. Now that its in your hands, Im sure you'll take good care of it.

I got a WW IX with a cf hood and yellow lights, live in Fresh Meadows. The only evo i see around my way besides my friends, is this blue X and thats about it. As for the shop i would recommend Top Level Performance on exit 32 of the Southern State.
