My friends clutch didn't even last him a month and he wasn't crazy on it. Also it was gonna cost a nut to have the Mitsubishi do it so he did it himself

I heard mitsu surfs evo boards and voids waranties based on posts on them. So dont put a pic of you next to your car on their board. Personally keep the civic and buy an ariel atom. If you want the fun its the way to go. you could show up to auto x events with an atom and be the rookie of the year and driver of the year. Based on that top gear segment I would never buy a new evo. At the end of the day I want a car that makes driving to work east not difficult.

spudracer326 wasn't talking modded, he was talking stock... so I don't think, I know. Modded is a whole different story.

The Evo isn't gonna be my daily driver it's gonna be my spring, summer, and fun car even though it is AWD and can easily take on the snow. Thats why I said my civic might possibly be traded in other why's it's gonna be my daily driver still.

hey i would test drive one and make sure its the car for you. i know alot of people that had one and ether had crank walk or a the clutch went out very fast. the 4G63 just isnt the best motor for boost, bad crank walk problems. just make sure its the car for you that before you buy it.

First off, you heard a rumor, an old rumor... nothing of the sort has ever happen.

That was a 400hp evo, what would you expect? Driving a evo is fun, but since you never driven one, you have no idea. There are plenty former 7thgen owners on evo forums, who have no complaints about leaving there honda.
