Anyone looking for a new Evo...

They're doing 0-down and 0% financing on all evo VIII's now. I guess they're making room for the Evo IX. My buddy just traded his 03 in over at Mark Mitsu. for a new one. They're even giving him the parts he wants back(GSC cams, apexi avcr, downpipe, exhaust, injectors, rail, apexi power FC).

if insurance wouldnt rip me a new *******, Id be getting one. oh well, when Im 25, ill be able to get whatever. Im looking at G35s right now, but again, insurance will probably suck, not as bad as an Evo id imagine.

Whats a good car for 25-30, and has some power. Im thinking about getting a Mazda6, I love the look, but its definately not fast enough.

apparently they wont be out for........ever. Since mazda is delaying again...and again....and again. By october they should be out, but I dunno. If its out by then, no question, thats my car. EXACTLY what I want, no other car would keep me happier (other than the EVO hehe)

the mazda6 3.0 has 220hp anyways though, thats somewhat enough to keep me happy. Intake and chip (under 500) gaines 20 ft/lb, haha. This car is gonna be so f**kin sweet. Im going all motor (possibly nitrous) with this car for reliability. Nitrous or turbo would be later on. Motor will be completely built, other than pistons, than I will drop it down and boost with the hiboost kit more than likely, but possibly nitrous.

The HiBoost kit needs NO TUNING. You get everything you need to boost reliably, and it tunes according to temp/altitude, like a stock turbo'd car. That will be freakin sweet, and its not much more than any other basic kits.

So lets do the math. If I put $6k down on an EVO at 0% what are my payments?

****, Im putting at least 10-12 down on my new car. Im gonna have 2-250/mo payments. I also need at least a grand to mod my new car.

Im thinking the new Impala SS - 340hp, haha. sweet and its only 25K starting. So I could get away a little under that.

I still really like that mazda6 though. the ms miata is sick, too, but only 2 seats. I usually hate miatas.

How do the G35s hold up? I think a His/Hers G35 for me and lizzie would be nice. I really dont know what i want. I want class though, and the impala doesnt do it, nor do many american cars, IMO.

Theres a 853hp supra for sell. but its got 70,000 miles, and I know thats beat down/unreliable.

If you get a G35, I want to ride in that badboy. I love G35's. EVO's and G35's are my favorite. I would have to get an EVO, though, cuz the G35's are way to classy for me

I need class, which is sort of why I got chrome on my vic, lol. Im getting some hi gloss black 18s on this car with a polished lip. Much nicer rims.

How does the G35 respond to bolt-on mods? hopefully better than the vic? 10hp-intake is way better than we get, so that would be alright. id like a little more.
