wow good for you, youre so cool. Do you feel better about yourself now?

Why do ricers always seek approval and respect for their rides?

just like the other rediculously powered imports, there's probably 5 max in the country that make this type of power.

it's not like they are going to the store and picking up a 900hp evo.

they started with whatever a stock *** evo starts with.

wasnt looking for resepect or a home or approval. not even my car. i was just reading a bunch of posts on how evos are over priced/over rated ricer pieces of ****. thought i might give the evo owners on here a hand. dont get so worked up about it. dont watch it if you dont like the cars. thought maybe that someone would say, "wow, a fast import. who would of thought. maybe ill be a little more open minded instead of getting mad about watching it win a race." ya know

yea your right, there arent to many but i think its cool to see a completely streetable 40 psi evo out on the street having fun and not in some rich guys garage waiting for the track to open. tho there are quite a few low ten high nine street evos out there.

If you wanna give them a hand, go do it somewhere else. It would be a different story if your thread title was something not so cocky like "EVO vs whatever" but instead your title is "why all the evo hate" and them post a few vids and afterward say "let the arguements and hating begin". Just post your kill and leave the stupid inciting comments out of it.

The are pretty nice cars, I like them, and yeah theyre pretty quick. I wouldnt mind having one myself.

imports are always seeking approval from everyone else. just today i was sitting at mcdonalds, eating some food in the parking lot. and some kid in a honda with his girl in the car rolls next to me and revs the **** out of his little engine. then he tried to break 'em loose out of the lot but he failed and just shot into opposing traffic. then, about 10 minutes later, i get another honda rev up next to me, but this time park next to me and almost ding my door upon exiting his car... he thought he was all cool and everything... ugh imports...

wasnt being cocky....well wasnt trying to be anyway. but like i said i dont own ams's evo/evos. and the why all the evo hate question was a serious question, and the let the arguing and hating begin was a joke. I sincerely appologize if i hurt everyones feelings with this post.

600 whp is fast no matter what you own.
that 67 camaro on there is HOT.
