It's official... sharky's car is gone...

Well out of my puny 2 car garage anyways. I'm gonna be leaving it here at Akkurat (I've got a sleeping bag there now) since we've got some fun stuff planned for it:


So I kicked out the black car and got a white car instead car instead. I need more groceries....



I'm nut sure which carbon fiber wing is bigger. ****ty pix but I was in a hurry. Other than it being my birthday yesterday (thanks Orli!) it's my 4th anniversary today too so gonna go out with the wifey for a bit. No time for bling bling pix

Thanks to all of you that I asked about daily D's. I looked at the Cooper S, EVO, STi, 350Z, Cayenne, S4 other Porsches and so on... I loved 'em all but this one seemed to fit me best. I love how it handles out of the box and I'm loving the manual:P

It's in my blood dammit I can't help it. I need two big CF wings

It is a lot of fun (except when I stall it lol) and the missus was happy to meet you too. She went off in a blaze of glory doing AutoX in the parking lot by Albertson's, I kid you not. She likes it!

Nice...

I heard that the Evo has a worse turning radius than a Toyota Camry... does it feel this way?

you ricer :P


I love the evo, we just finished doing the AEM EMS and a cam swap on my buddies along w/ just basic bolt ons. The car pulls SOOOO hard, it's definately a high 11 second ride. Took more then some time to work out the bugs though. Car has the Tein Flex suspension :drool: and Volk SF Winnings in Gold




enjoy, i'm gonna be selling my car around the start of summer next year and i'm stuck between the evo and the dodge magnum RT


When it comes time to modifying it, i've got a guy down here that does unreal things. I'll also get you some pics of my buddies car since it's white

Alex, considering the EVO VIII does the slalom @ 74.x mph, the (stock) Porsche turbo @ 69.x mph can do nothing but sit back and watch. The EVO out-handles just about anything (stock) on the road today.

Great purchase. You will love the 4G63 engine. Come talk to me if you want some modding advice.
It seems like it's on rails. It's funny but very well balanced. I like it. A bit of understeer but that can be fixed....

I think the engine is great. What a 4 banger it is... I will be talking to you soon man
