Default No more mustang...

Whats up guys, this may sound extremely random because it pretty much is but I sold my mustang today. The other day while I was at work I just kept thinking about how much longer this car would last because there are just a bunch of little problems with my car that I know will turn into bigger ones sometime down the road that I don't want to have to deal with.
That was on Saturday and the car is already sold as of today. I am going to miss it a lot but I felt like it was time for me to move on to something better with less mileage.
My plan now is to get a mid mileage Evo 8 that has been mildly modded because I don't really feel like spending the money to mod a car again right now. I have a lot of friends with Evo's and I love the way they feel and they handle so well, much better than my Mustang. I also love the turbo power curve much more than the Vortech.
So I have found one that seems promising already with 350AWHP that I am strongly considering at the moment.
Ill still love mustangs and i'm sure ill have another one at some point but AWD seems so much better to me right now and I can't wait to never have traction problems in 1st gear and be able to get around in the snow.
I'm sure ill stick around here still for awhile but I'm excited to get an evo.
Here are some pics of the one i'm looking at!

Love evos. Very respectable choice. I've often thought of doubt this, but I enjoy the mustang community that comes with mustangs much more than the import scene. You thought ricers tried to race you all the time in the mustang, just you wait. Lol

But that car looks sick man. Best of luck! Let us know when you turn that thing into a monster!

Congrats...I get confused when people mod their DD with a supercharger and spend all that money and then complain about things going wrong and about getting around in the snow...didn't you think about that in the beginning? You kinda shot yourself in the foot if you didn't have another car for the winter.

I'd love to S/C my mach, but the time, money and the fact I have to drive in snow limits that. If my mach wasnt my DD, I'd strongly look into L/T's cams and gears.


Goodluck with it, Ive never been in an Evo. Slick looking cars. Post up if yoi get it.
