plans include

tune
better intercooler

wheels ( volk te37 matte black?)
carbon fiber side scoops

otherwise shes damn near perfect.

I don't blame ya I'm pretty sure I'm gonna e moving on soon as well and it's gotta be something extremly fun to replace even a bolt on Evo.

artsyFA5 · 12-02-2009, 07:15 PM

ndubz · 12-02-2009, 07:23 PM

From one extreme to another. That's awesome, man. Ballerstatus.

Get some.

CherryBomb · 12-02-2009, 07:28 PM

Nice pick up, man. Good choice!

tr4c3 · 12-02-2009, 07:42 PM

Nice man. Definitely post some pics up when you get it.

jjm4life · 12-02-2009, 07:52 PM

i will. hopefully i get some shots of it coming off the truck. i am having it shipped up from miami in an enclosed trailer. gonna look wicked goofy having an 18wheeler roll up to my house and spit out a toy car.

EklipzGSXkid · 12-02-2009, 08:07 PM

May I ask how much shipping costs? I were possibly going to have a car shipped from california but I do not know where or how to go about it as i've never done it before.

tcturbo91 · 12-02-2009, 08:09 PM

damn, i am having no luck selling my evo and you sold your in 6 days????? my luck suck

awesome car to move up to though... congrats!

Eclipse GSX 61 · 12-02-2009, 08:38 PM

You sir had hands down one of the cleanest all around white wingless Evo's. I always loved seeing updates of your car on various different forums that we are both part of. I think the Evo is a much more practical car than the Lotus but hell you only live once. Nice color choice on the new matchbox!

marshallpre1 · 12-02-2009, 09:15 PM

I ****in love your new car!!!

Nobody noticed the storm trooper. WIN

laser92dsm · 12-02-2009, 10:09 PM

Have Fun with It! Even though i thought your evo was one of the best looking evos that i have ever seen. But still im sure this car will make up for selling it once you have it and like people have said you only live once so enjoy it.

jjm4life · 12-02-2009, 10:11 PM

i noticed the storm trooper. thats one of my favorite exige pics hands down.

shipping from pompano beach in an enclosed trailer was 850. but thats a deceiving number as they cut me a deal. most cars this time of year are headed down to that area, so trucks are empty on their way back north. since carrying my car is better than an empty truck, they made me a deal. there are tons of websites that you can post your shipping and have 10+ carriers bid on the transport.

eclipse gsx- thanks a lot. i really appreciate that comments,. i never thought it was a standout until i saw him driving it about an hour after the deal was done. him his baby and wife got a hotel room nearby, so i saw him driving down the road. it really caught my eye. im gonna miss that car. but the exige will certianly fill that void. its totally impracticable as mentioned before, but you only live once. winter is going to be a blast....

abrok99 · 12-02-2009, 10:23 PM

nice car. where about are you in in boston?

jjm4life · 12-02-2009, 11:08 PM
