well actualy, my friend. I have a friend who is interested in maybe getting an evo. I say once he test drives one, he'll fall in love. He was thinking about something AWD and turbo. he wanted auto because of rough commutes to DC. been testing S4s and others, but he said he could get a manual if the car is right.

so anywhere he can test drive one like it's meant to be driven? or can anyone in NOVA give him a ride he'll never forget?

 

I've heard that Junon is selling a really nice EVO at a great price. Slightly used,but in great condition. You should check it out.

 

just go to the dealership, rag it out, then say you dont want it

 

Yea I would definately go with an older S4 way before I went with an Evo

 

pm me if your friend is looking for a test drive.

 

Why?
I wouldn't take something old and not that reliable, and expensive to repair over a much newer evo. Unless interiors are your thing.

 

its 2.7L vs 2.0L, it has a nice interior, and can be had for as cheap, if not cheaper than an evo. Evo's arent THAT cheap to repair, they are still a hyped car, not quite like a DSM would be.

 

well since you have to take the whole front end off a s4 to replace the timing belt its not cheap either. Its 2000bux at most dealers, at least thats why currys charges because of the intensive labor. Also they tend to leak oil on the gaskets which requires pulling the front end again since there is noway yer going to touch the engine with out doing so.

 

i have a friend in carmax and she hooks me up with the dealer that knows my deal....the deal to test drive cars for fun, i usually go there once a month and test drive 3 cars....one of them is always an Evo, as much of a dubber as i am....i have never felt such a thrill and rush slamming the pedal and redlining in one of those mitsubishis. Best way to do it is really just go to a dealer and pretend to be serious and dont lie....lieing is bad and then go drive one. I guess pretend and lie would be the same thing in that situation.....just dont lie to much.

Through my experiences with friends going to carmax...i have to say i hate the rx8, love the evo, enjoy the g35 but that was kind of a waste considering my bro owns one, gti r32 is interesting...although i prefer the standard gti, and the volvo s60r is fun.

 

Don't you own one (or 2?)
