Default But once you start adding thigns like that, you start looking for the luxurys..

then you start criticizing build quality, then you long for your Audi again...

If it's gonna be a toy, keep it that way. If it's gonna be a nice all around car, don't expect it to be a total pocket rocket.

Default About the build quality...

First off, I would not say the EVO suffers for poor build quality. I would say it suffers from inexpensive part quality. And for a reason I might as well add.

The car was bolted and welded together quite well from what I make of it. I've been all over this car too. The build quality issues people seem to be talking about are the same issues that lighten the car. I mean we both know this car is a race inspired car. A real, race inspired car, not a pseudo, watered down version either. So the ways materials are used, makes complete sense to me. I like it better that way. Saves me the hassles of trying to make the car something it not again, if you know what I mean.

Leather is blasphemous. Suede or Alcantara.

Default It's a bit odd, but should attract a few new buyers here and there. COmfortable though.

The Vinyl door inserts are horrendous though.

Default HAHA.. I'd have to agree.

I know the EVO goes quick, but did they have to make it soo ugly?


by the way, my name is eVo for other reasons, not becasue of the EVO.
