Trading in My Evo 8 MR for MS3 2nd Gen

[siredline09]

I bought My Evo 8 MR last year for $23,000 I had many problems with it for example SLOW 0-60 in 8 sec Needed new clutch new tires new radiator new inter-cooler new starter new hoses boost leak trunk is rusting inside been in 2 accidents valve cover is loose needs spark plugs needed fuel pressure regulator need new rotors missing a nut on one of the coil overs a lot more but look at the pic should i get rid of it for new MS3 I was thinking of lowering it putting on the autoEXE front bumper exhaust intake downpipe race pipe and use the EP-c piggyback ECU

o yea don't hate I work for UPS as a driver in midtown manhattan and I make $29 an hour I earned my evo

 

[Kingof3rdinput]

Who was going to hate?

 

[MonkeyBone]

Change it ASAP

(popcorn)

 

[MakeMeGoFast]

I think more people will hate that you just had to mention that you make 29/hr. lol

 

[nastynogales]

i'm going to hate

i hate that u use no punctuation

 

[Mzd_Spd_3]

Most UPS drivers don't make that. Maybe because its in
Manhattan. But overall they still make good money around
here.

I don't mean to be an ass, but it looks like you've beat the car to s*** since you've had it. What you do with your $29/hour is your choice, but if I were in your shoes, I'd go to the Skip Barber driving school and learn how to drive the beast of a car I had.

8 sec 0-60?

I think he means about all the issues he's had with the car.

The EVO will definitely be faster than the Speed and AWD is always nice, but once you get past that the Speed is a great little car.

Oh, and isn't 29/hr in Manhattan not a whole lot? Not trying to talk down to you, I mean. I haven't been to New York but I always hear the cost of living there is astronomical especially compared to a place like SC where i live.

There's no way this guy is for real.

Trunk rusted on the inside?? Been in two car accidents. Can we say salvage title. YIKES

well if thats the case any used car is going to have issues and they are going to have more issues when you throw in its used turbo car and thats not even counting the fact of what it is.

Everyone has worked around the question in the OP. So my .02 are that you should dump the heap and get a 2010 MS3 and enjoy the better gas milage and reliability. It wont be as fast as an EVO. But apparently it will be faster than the one you have. So its a win win situation.

You're telling me. I went used car shopping for a baby-hauler with my wife for the past month or so. It's amazing how terrible of condition a lot of used cars are in even though they're only two years old.

OP, get the Speed3.

 

[coololddude]

Get the MS3 and be HAPPY!

 

[siredline09]

I treat my cars with care the car I had bought it from a korean shop in queens which suckered me i ended up falling in love with it without even second quessing as to make sure its not a lemon the owner before me must of been a kid with money because the motor and body was modified you can tell and by the way i got a liquid silver ms3 last week omg i love her
