So its been roughly two years with my Evo. But it was finally time to let it go. Traded her in last week. you will be missed.

:o

 

What did you replace it with? So many people have new cars in the last two weeks I can't keep track without a spreadsheet.

 

lol at not telling us what it was replaced with.

 

I think he was looking at MDXs a couple weeks ago.

 

What's Jesal driving today?

 

At least this isn't another NSX thread. When you say its been a rough two years, what do you mean by that? I was under the impression that you really liked the Evo.

 

roughly two years...

 

Correct, roughly not rough. But the car wasnt the most reliable thing.

I replaced it with the black MDX in another thread i made.

2004 MDX Touring with Navi and RES.
I love it!

 

It has the RES?

 

Yea, its pretty neat. Or are you being sarcastic

 

Cool. Congrats on the sale and good luck with the MDX.

 

Thanks man. Man i missed Acura comfort.

 

Must have missed that. Congrats.

 

Here is what replaced it:

 

Your Ego was nicely built. Should have sold it to me.

 

 

Nah he called it the first time I think

 

What A Downgrade..

 

only 2nd gen cl owners will understand this post

 

 

Its spelled that way on purpose.

All the guys I know with Evos seem to have one.

 

I thought it was a nice little upgrade.

 

Reliability and Mitsubishi are not exactly synonymous.

Nice replacement vehicle though.

 

 

Definitely a huge adjustment given you're going from a gocart-like car to an SUV. Oh well...congrats on the new vehicle!

 

It's not a downgrade at all. If anything it's an upgrade in reliablilty and comfort. A downgrade would be getting an RSX-S, or Civic SI to compare with an EVO.

His needs/lifestyle/wallet needed something more practical. The MDX is a very nice SUV.

Goodluck and congrats with the MDX

 

downgrade is a rather simplistic way of looking at the situation. it fits his current needs more than the evo did so it's an upgrade for him.

 

Talk about apples to oranges.

Congrats

 

so just wondering..........how much did you get for trade in?

 

The Evo is a subcompact on steroids whereas the MDX is a luxury SUV. Downgrade? NOT!!

 

RES???

um... acronym sounds substantial

 

why?????????

evo for mdx???? not understanding....you starting a family or just want a bigger vehicle??

 

Rear entertainment system (DVD)

 

This is as loony as trading in a s2000 for a Mazda3

 

Nice pickup! Congrats!

 

congrats.

 

Thanks guys. I know i went from apples to oranges. Everyone is saying that. But i just got sick of apples and how i always had to take care of them and worry about it. Oranges are a lot more comfortable and a lot less of a worry free. I would like to pick up an NSX as a second vehicle. The Evo just wasnt my type of daily driver.

 

Don't let them get you down. I traded my Sti for a Pacifica and never looked back. We picked up a Cayman 2 years later though. I have my eyes on a 95 911 Carerra these days. Love the old school look and resale value. If I could only get the dealer down to $24k it would be a done deal.

That vintage is perfect. It's like everything I wish was a little better about my dad's 87 Targa but still minimalist ... Good luck man!

 

What got me really into it is the carfax report- http://www.carfax.com/cfm/ccc_Displa...AA299XSS320951

You can tell it was maintained fairly decently. The only drawback are the miles but with proper maintenance that makes it a moot point for me but hope to use it as leverage on the negotiations. Another drawback is when I asked to get a pre-purchase inspection from Porsche NA the dealer said that they give a 48 hour buy back program where I can get it inspected after purchase and if it is not up to snuff can return it. For some reason I don't think this would work out in my benefit.
