edit - new pics

hey yall i put all that work into my gangsta *** ep3 headlights then i go and trade it for a Evo8 wtf? lol. got it on sunday - its freakin tight. i just keep staring it at and smiling (i try to avoid lookin at the alteeza tailights). handling, ergonomics and feeling are tops. the feeling is edgey like the Type-R- no compromises. interior is plain - but what do u expect from mitsubishi.....acceleration wise i was expecting something faster - feeels realllly choked up.... nothing an external wastegate + 3'' exh. from the turbo back couldnt fix !

that is very nice dude. congrat on your new car.
one dealer here told me kid in fl got one, so i guess that is you.

 

You dont have those dope EP headlights by any chance do you! Those are so piump i want them!!!!!!

 

I wish I had money

 

you bastard dont complain I want a Black Evo VIII if only I could sell my damn hybrid!

 

Looks nice.... have fun with it.

 

congat buddy, nice car,
I'm jealous!!!
don't be a dick, breack it in properly, you'll be payed in the long run for doing it properly!! other than that, EXPLOIT it. !!!

see ya
Kranked

 

they are quick according to what i read in one of the mag's last week- like 13.xx in teh 1/4 stock--it's just that launch that's hard to get down. give us a follow up once you figure out how to launch that beast

 

 

dont worry im breakin it in properly - so properly that i left it at home for the week to let my dad break it in for me. i live at school 4.5 hours away from home and you know ur not supposed to do any steady high way driving. the car hasnt been over 4200 rpm yet. and it was never test driven, got it with 4 miles has around 180 miles now, pops is enjoying every minute of breaking it in. damn i wanna go home! pops is enjoying it so much he might trade his S2000 in for one

ill have mpegs of 1/4 runs, random driving and mpegs of an april 6 autocross event!!!!! hopefully ill get a full 3 inch exhaust turbo back within the next 2 weeks!!! booooooooost is backkkkkkkkk

 

congrats man! whats msrp on that ***? it seems like u already have license plates too??

very nice dude

 

i was gonna get an EVO 6, but couldnt find one in my area so i got a CTR

 

??????

 

look at his avatar, before he got the evo8 he did DIY CTR lights on his EP3, thats what hes talking about

 

Yea, those evo8's look bad ***...I checked one out yesterday at the dealership. msrp was like..30,xxx.xx My buddy is going to pick it up, another question, Do you think you can fit the lancer taillights in the evo8? To get rid of the "altezzas"

 

the lancer tails are a completely different shape. I saw a post somewhere someone took the tails off a JDM EVO 7 which is basically like the US evo8 only instead of having the chrome inner housing its all red, so it blends in better looks more like a normal tail and less like an altezza.

 

spray paint those tails

 

congrats- looks nice in Black-
I test drove a red one this past weekend.
Dealer made me watch a damned video and pass a written quiz on it first!
Couldn't rev it over 5500 (well, 6000) but could feel some good power out of the car. Brakes needed to be heated up a bit to bite at all, but the handling seems really nice.
Not a bad looking car, either. It's amazing what a nice set of wheels, a new hood, and some side skirts will do to a Lancer.

 

It just seems weird to me that you would go from a Civic Si to a Evo 8. Such a stark contrast in price, why did you go with the Si in the first place if you can afford such an expensive ride?

Nitpicking aside, congrats on the purchase of an awesome, unique, fast-as-**** ride!

And you already bought APC's.

These lights are stock... Not APC's...

 

He knows, hence the and "j/k"...

 

Nice ride...
