For the one or two of you that haven't heard, I've traded in my Tibby for a brand new 2006 Evo IX MR Special Edition. It was a tough choice, but had I possessed the information I have now before I bought the turbo I would have probably taken this route anyway. Ah well, live and learn.

These are just pathetic garage shots, which are one step BELOW driveway shots, but better pics will follow. For now, a teaser.

Why are all the fast sport compacts so f'n ugly? No offense, I definitely wouldn't want to run against you at the track, but why can't any car manufacturer make a good looking 2-door coupe with balls? It's either one or the other. *sigh*

Nice, but I'd rather have the fastest version of the USDM model, the RS.

I can only think of one car that would have the whole package...and I think it would be considered a sport compact...Supra MKIV...hot looks, lots of go...the whole shabam

if a tib came turbo?
If a tib came turbo it would spin out all over the road lol even though I love em :)

I'm throwing in the 350z.

As for color...graphite gray would be my best bet lol

My vote is for the new 07 WRX STI Limited.....They ditched the huge wing, added carbon splitters to the front and rear, leathered out the interior, sunroof, *****in tunes, and it still has 300BHP. Plain sexy.

amazing car... I actually love the simple/plain interior, with the carbon fiber panels and the guages... so nice. I personally think the Evo IX is hot as hell... i like it better than the STi, though that new STi limited is looking really nice too. Still, the Evo is amazing.... congrats. Oh, and the dark silver/ graphite color is the BEST!!

I too used to love the STi, until I realized it was the wannabe evo. Plus, the front of the new STi's just looks wrong...it's like I should give it a tissue lol
