Moostafa29's New Ride
 

Hey everyone. As some of you may know, I recently traded in the 8 for an Evo X. Here are a few pics. I already have full bolt ons ordered, and on the way!

Nice ride! It even has a similarity with the 8.....the side vents. Good luck with it!

Great choice in color. White is definitally the best color the Evo X comes in. The front looks more agressive than the IX, but I don't like the side profile as much, it just looks too plain and boxy to me. I looked at a white one at the dealership the other day, it's a pretty big car. I plan on driving one just to see what it is like. Give a write up on how it is compaired to the 8. Power, throttle response, handeling, brakeing...etc..

congrats man. Good choice.

But I have to remind you that you also gave up too soon on the turbo rx8. I am using your greddy kit and my rx8 makes more power than your new ride :) Ah well, you now have a warranty :)

I couldn't trade beauty for speed.... but enjoy anyways...!

Looks a little like a boat with wheels...

Nice, but please remove that hideous wing!

Congrats on the new car Moostafa. It's definitely nicer than the past generation Evo.

Keep us updated on how you like the car. I'd would like to know. We're all car enthusiasts here....well most of us.

Cheers.

theres still 5 speed in 2008??????

congrats man

mazsports beefier tranny for the rx8 is a 5 speed.

looks good moose.

Did you get the 5 speed or the DSG type tranny

I saw this in person, really clean. First Evo X I've seen in person, perfect choice in color.

Awesome car, nice choice.

Is it FWD, I don't know much about them.

^^ thier AWD...

and does anyone know if the Evo front bumper will fit the regular lancers?

or are the fenders wider?

fugly... just fugly... hahaha, i'm just kidding moo moo!!!! awesome, looks clean! enjoy your new ride! we got to meet up some day again!

I can't believe I asked that, sorry. :)

Friend of mine just got the exact same car... they're very cool. He's already got a boost controller and down pipe. Runs good.

One tiny gripe... I cannot believe how cheap that shift knob looks and feels. I'd have to trash that thing immediately. It's the same one from the regular Lancer.

sweet, its no 8 but it is still a very nice ride and handles very well.

Looks good. I think it would look even better if the black part of the front grill was painted white. How much are the Evo X's these days?

nice car man!

Moo, you let me down. WHITE?! yuck.
Take some pics of the interior. Does it look as cheap as the old interior or did they finally get that straightened out?

Should be a fun drive.

Nice car.. I usually like the STi better, but with the new body styles, i'd go with the Evo. Never been a wagon/hatchback fan

Siiiiiick!! nice ride.

Lovely!! Congrats!

nice moos moos...very nice!!!

its SST.

Nice ride!

Nice, congrats on the purchase.

ALot of guys are getting great HP gains from just a tune, seems to run rich just like the last model. Keep us updated with the mods you get as well.

Congrats. Looks great. Nice color choice. Keep us posted on the bolt-ons.

i like the front but the side and the rear isent my style. none the less, its a sick car. ever seen that blueish purple one? i like that color

Nice ride... +1 on the white... i've checked the evo out when my 8's in for maintenance service (dealer is a Mazda/Mitsu/Suzuki) ... i think they've improved the interior a lot... and the whole car looks a lot more agressive. Enjoy it!






...maybe you can use strakes from the 8 on it! :naughty: j/k... :lol2:

Give me a few days Jason. I have a couple goodies on the way to fix that problem

Its the 5 speed. The MR with the SST tranny isn't out yet. I do miss the 6th gear though.

heh. I wouldn't have considered a warranty a problem, but ...

Going over 340 whp?

It comes with the SSS package. I am actually getting used to it.

Not sure yet. I bought some bolt ons that should put me in the 320whp range. I may get a tune in the next few months that would put me over 350whp, and hopefully get my freeway mileage in the 30mpg range. With bolt ons, the AFR is still between 9-10.

congrats on the ride, mike. i'm sure it's a blast to drive.

gorgeous car, i hope they keep the manual trans on the next few generations. I want 1 of these to be my next car =-)

Nice. I want to go driving in one.

Don't forget to come see us at Seven Stock.

don't get any tickets!

nice ride congrats man. my cousin has an evo 8 the thing is fast as hell. enjoy it

Im seriously considering to turbo my 8, screw the warranty crap.

I got a FIT for MPG ... with premium going 4.09 per gallon. lol

Who knwos, I might get a STi just to piss u guys off hahahaha

Cant wait to see what Moose does this car. his 8 was nice looking.

with the ugly looking 08 model you might be pissing yourself off while people laugh. hahaha im jk. everyones got their own taste.

i went to the dealer to test drive and get a trade in quote for the exact same thing moostafa. they were going to give it to me for 35k - 25k for the rx8. test drove it for shits and giggles...... but it wasn't even funny how well this car performs stock.
