How much did you get it for? Looks great!

**Asharus** · 03-21-2011 01:50 PM

Grats dude, picked the right color too!

**Erikjenkins11876** · 03-21-2011 02:22 PM

Thanks dudes! Both my cars are white (my wife and I also own a 2008 Honda Civic EX-L sedan). I ended up getting it for around 30K which was 500 over invoice, I had to have car shipped from another dealer so I split the shipping cost for the over invoice. It came factory/port with the SPT exhaust, which is far louder than I expected.

A little info about me...

Have some mechanical knowledge but this is my first turbo'd car. I used to have a 2000 Mitsubishi Eclipse V-6 that was a little modded (intake, exhaust, suspension), best drag racing time was a 14.68@94.5MPH. At the time I also had a 98 Ford ZX2 that was pretty modded up and I entered into a few car shows, that car had every bolt-on imaginable and was still slow at 15.0@91MPH. I then had a 2004 Ford Focus SVT that I did absolutely nada to, that car handled VERY well, I auto crossed it few times for fun. Most recently I had a 2004 Mitsubishi Endeavor that died in a pretty bad crash involving my wife and a hairy corner, rolled it three times and she walked away with a few bumps and scratches. Plans for this one are as follows: #1 SUSPENSION. This car needs a bit of help here, and I plan on doing it right! I will most likely start with a drop in filter(dry of course), sways, end links, bushings, subframe work, and a short throw shifter (god does this need one). Then on to an Access port, DP, shiny bits etc etc. Nothing too wild with the engine mods because this will be my daily driver for now and I play drums and occasionally move them with this little guy.

congrats

Damn, glad to hear she did fine... that's insane.

**Erikjenkins11876** · 03-21-2011 05:17 PM

Yeah she was fine, it really was due to the Mitsubishi holding up so well in the accident. I know it's a Subie site and we all take our shots at Mitsubishi, but that truck saved her life so I will always respect that car brand. It also reinforced my decision to buy a car that had or has a factory rally program. It teaches the manufacturer so much about how to make a durable accident prone car. Man that truck was trashed! The whole rear door split like a banana peal and two of the axles were in the back trunk when we went to clean it out.
