Rep Power: 301 Civic was gonna be impounded because of the amount of mods (over 20k, and over half not street legal)...
Evo was great but I bought a house in FL that'll be done this May. There's no way I can have both and have any money left.
The Scion was a great compomise, and even cops love my car. Not in a bad way, they ask q's about it and give me nods, no more dirty looks like what I got in the Civic.
The tC will be a lot faster than my civic ever could, and to me look a lil nice. It's all a matter of taste, What's best, is that I'll still have cash left to go out as I please and enjoy other things in life.

Rep Power: 301 thanks guys and lol at the comment on the evo 8.
the evo 8 is a great car to drive, just for the expenses i see, i'd rather still enjoy life and hav e money to drive something good, rather than drive aimlessly...
plus, this may sound dumb, but i think i met the girl of my dreams last night... we're meeting up next weekend. she's friggin gorgeous and has the brains to boot, so i guess i'll be droppin some mula on her now lol...

anyways, Jen most definitely LOVES the Evo and she definitely gets a double look. a, that shes driving the car she does and b, cuz shes a chick. i hated it really and truly when i was with her partly cuz i was jealous. but i also felt so inadequate @ times with my lowly lil Civic. anyways, here's what she's got done so far...ALL GIFTS:
TurboXS Manual Boost Controller (brother)
Aftermarket Steel-braided Clutch Line (brother)
GReddy Type-S BOV (free from me)
OEM wiring harness for her Kenwood 911 headunit (LOTS of features on this lil foldout) (me for bday)
Nitrous Express N-tercooler Sprayer Kit (ex BF cuz he owes her $4K)
Eibach Pro-Kit Lowering Springs (dad for xmas)
GReddy counter-weight shift **** (me for bday)
Autometer ylw/blk/cf 30psi max Boost Gauge (me for bday)
Autometer 3-pod A-Pillar Gauge Mount (me for xmas)
not bad for a seven month old car and no money put into it 'cept for gas and insurance and payments huh?
now shes off in Gainesville getting ready to move on in life and go to school and leaving me behind.
but anyways, back on topic...i wouldnt think i could go from Civic, to Evo, back down to tC...but hey, whatever floats your boat.
i wanna EvoMR myself.

Rep Power: 301 btw... I just installed MyFi XM system, and bought the Apexi RSM GP with mounting bracket.
That should be in soon. I should be boosted with 18s within 3 months.
