First decent shots of the new car

Well, I got tired of waiting for the weather to be nice to take some pics with my new wheels, so I found the first lit parking lot and snapped some shots. Not great but it'll do for now.

Looks like hell, especially in blue. That lame blue (some blues are not lame) makes it look like a Matchbox toy. Didn't you use to make fun of ricers?

It's alright TyrellCorpNexus8 (among other alias) I don't expect everyone to like it, you'll be banned soon anyhow.

You gotta get some pics during the day when the weather is clear Ike! "Blue By You" is one of my favorite colors on the Evo...there is just something about the carbon fiber on the wing and that Blue!

btw...what model year is that?

I don't like it either. You should have stuck with the scooby. Go visit the evo-forum and maybe someone there will dig it.

Didn't you post this a few weeks ago?

By the way, I didn't say it was rice.... you did.

Not being a smartass, but what made you switch to Mitsu? By the way I have my eyes set on the Evo XO, which I might get. The only thing that scares it Mitsu itself.

Posted it but they were even worse shots while it was in the garage. Don't worry I'll punish you with even more shots once it's a sunny day Why do you think I should have stuck with the Scooby, because that's what you like better looks wise? Performance wise they just don't compare. I can run 12 sec 1/4 miles (we'll see for sure when it warms up ), drive it in the snow, do track days, and I still have a warranty; I'm happy!

I'm not sure I understand... so this is a RX8 forum, and you harp about how superior a WRX is to the world and then you get a Mistu. Then when someone disagrees with you, you want them banned?

How old are you 12?

Go to an EVO forum and get the ego swell you are looking for, you just won’t get it here.



Oh ya and to stay on topic… the blue looks like ***.

See my above post... I'm not much of a Mitsubishi fan myself, they're a pretty pitiful car company that manages to make one brilliant car. I'm lucky enough to have a very mod friendly dealer, they even installed the TBE, intake, and some other mods. I wanted over 300whp from my daily driver, and that wasn't happening from the WRX unless I upgraded a lot of things, with the Evo it's cheap and easy. Even with an STI I would have had to worry about things like upgrading the fuel, turbo, and intercooler once I got to a little over 300whp. Lastly, the handling on the Evo is just a little better and sharper than the STI.

Like I always say with these type of posts, show me where I've said once the Subaru was such a superior car, especially in relation to an Evo.

I don't want Sportura banned because of anything he has said in this thread, in fact I could care less if he's banned. However it will most likely happen sooner or later since he's already been banned with at least two other user names (Tyrellcorp, Reactionary). Take a look at some of his posts over the last month and you'll realize why I said he would be banned soon, I'm shocked a mod hasn't banned him already.

I'm not looking for an "ego swell", just sharing my car with a community that I like and have been a part of for a long time, far longer than yourself in fact. Other members asked for more pics, so I put some up. I'll be putting more up on this thread in the future, so if you don't want to see my ugly blue car don't continue to open this thread.

No offense, but those black rims are not doing it for me. It looks like it the car's hubcaps fell off.

Maybe a polished lip on black wheels?
