Just sold my 05wrx with vf34 for an Evo XI MR

I just sold my subie for the Evo XI MR. I used to hate Evo's because my friend has an Evo VIII and tested drive his car before and the lag was worst than my Wrx. Also the front end of the evo VIII is so ugly. After I tested drive the Evo XI MR, I was like WOW. I almost didn't feel any turbo lag at all. But the top end is not as fast as my wrx with vf34(269whp,250tq). The front end and interior looks much better than the Evo VIII. So I decided to buy the Evo XI MR. So far, I am very happy with the car. The handling is also very impressive. But I still miss my Subie a lot. I think Subies have their own character. I also think Subie forums have the coolest members not like the evo forums. I have been to couple of the Evo forums. Their members act like their cars are the fastest car in the whole world, even faster than Ferrari and handles better than Corvettes. I think they are in their own world. And I think subie members are the coolest in the forum.

I don't think I would ever sell my car. Probably because what I would get for it would be insulting.

No kidding. I will never get the amount of $$ back that has been dumped into it. Just have to drive it until it disintegrates, but it will be a blast until then!

Drive whatever makes you happy. Even if it's the futuristic EVO XI. :banana:

Did you have to add any dough? Don't the IXs go for 25ish?

Hey! Cut him some slack... he's new to the EVO game.

I got worried since I am waiting for delivery of our 1st EVO X (tomorrow), I thought they already went to the XI without even telling their dealers!!!

You did get one thing right ~ We ARE the coolest guys on the boards!
