So this is really about being bored with yoru current ride and wanting a car that you think you can make faster than your current ride without much cash out-lay, and all the other stuff is what you are telling the rational side of your brain and others to convince you/them of the responsibility of this purchase.

Just reading between the lines.

The EVO10 is supposedly faster than the EVO8, but both are pretty slow unless from a dig or modded.

Vegitto-kun

been reading around and seems the 0-60 is around 4.9.

370 is like 5.0-5.2. not that much faster.

also you talked about the cost of the tickets you get, good job getting a "quicker" car then.

CrownR426

Hmm why do people get the GSR?
I thought the MR was best?

Sounds like a very bad decision for you to change.

Who cares about what others say when it is your money. When they QQ at your 2 seater just tell them to walk. I did exactly that when my aunt complained about a 2 seater. I told her to walk. Not only that, it is your money in the end.

Everything else is just you. Change your driving habit to get better gas mileage and to stop attracting cops. Cleaning and maintenance, well that goes with all cars and with a turbo car, expect quicker oil changes and just as bad gas mileage if you have a heavy foot.

Something isn't right here.

OP wants a faster, different car, and is rationalizing it poorly. What's wrong?

He's 21 and if he can afford it, I think he should do it. Either he will love it and be happy, or hate it and learn a life-lesson that noone could teach him. I am only 25 and am still learning those kinds of lessons. As long as noone is maimed, it's a good thing.

You got me...
I miss driving in the snow rofl!
Im in North Jersey and it snows too much for winter.
I can't afford a beater unless I wait for my parents to get home from work...
Can't do that all the time...

Depends on how shitty you want to go for your DD. There are $300 options out there. I remember on the corvette-forum a while back one of the saddest stories about a beater I ever saw.

IT is such a hardcore story that I googled for the last 5 minutes to bring it to you:

smart move sell your Z lose alot of money and possibly have to pay extra on your evo instead of just buying a 500-1000 dollar snow DD jesus christ isnt america the country where you can buy cars dirt cheap.

you get the evo you are all hooray snow driving then its summer and your like ... I miss the Z

ImportConvert

Buy a DD for that muck and keep the Z for nice weather or...

DD the evo and drive it on the snowed/salted roads.

Mr.Squeeze

This right here tells it all its more than just your friends parents ETC.You can get a beater for very cheap to drive on those snow days.
