Very nice! I had no respect for the Evos or wrx's untill I got a ride. They just fight for traction and keep on pulling. Thats about as good as a daily driver gets.

Nice ride, I almost bought one last fall but I got such a good deal on my 03 navigator that i couldnt pass it up. I had a deposite on an 05 evo rs, brand new, 25K. Still kinda wish I got it though, although I dunno how I would have dealt with no power windows, locks, etc haha.

Hey Steve, sweet car. You know that Jon and Alex came by to work here? Pretty funny, you should stop by when you get a chance with the new car.
