What did you drive before your EVO?

2001 slow [email protected]@ Ford, no power widows, no power door locks, hell i didn't even have a tape deck....Focus.........i was smart when i was younger and if i wouldn't have bought the EVO i would NO car payments.....

had a 94 jetta all motor but the suspension got killed right away,costly to mod also since its always special tools just to change parts

2004 acura tl had to many lil problems and the dealers that i went to service the car at did not know how to work on the car.

I got the EVO because I loved the "sleeper" effect of my Galant VR-4 and wanted to have that again. I have removed the giant CF wing and switched to JDM EVO7 red tail lights to make the car more of a sleeper.

I came from a 97 :dsm: Eclipse GS-T that i love and miss very much. It was modded and tuned just right. I had that thing pulling like a raped ape. Man I love that car! I had to sell it though to make room for the Evo, but for a period of two months I was in :dsm: heaven driving both every other day.

That's all I've ever owned.

Bought my first car in '99 when I moved out here, a '99 Civic sedan (Value Package) :yawn:. Paid it off 2 years later, decided I was bored with it, sold it and bought an '01 Eclipse GT. I was pretty happy with that until I started autocrossing when I found out that the 3G Eclipse, well, sucked. Luckily around the same time the Evo had hit the market and I traded in the Eclipse. Don't think I'll ever sell my Evo though; eventually it will end its days as a track-only or rally car; I'm already starting to think as to what I'll want as a daily driver a couple years from now.
