    Well if you had asked me a few months ago if would ever trade my truck in the answer would have been HELL NO! However being stationed in the bay area with a lifted tacoma has not been very practical. I WILL GET A TACOMA AGAIN SOMEDAY! Until then Im gonna be driving my new EVOLUTION MR!

    Why the Evo over an Sti? I'm just curious, I was going to buy another vehicle and was debating between the two, don't want to start an Evo vs Sti thread. Looks clean though.

    I believe a better move would have been to relocate from the "bay area" :D

    looks like a nice car. is the wing a little large? is it really necessary?

    I know they're faster and all, but I wouldn't buy a sports car with paddle shifters, It just isn't my thing.

    Nice, but you'll be back to a truck soon..... My ISF has paddle shifters and they are way faster than any manual I've ever driven and will hold a gear until you make it shift.
