    Has anyone gone over 300k? I successfully finished a long trip from Atlanta to New York last week and now my milage meter shows 312k. It is an amazing result in my opinion as I have never had to invest a single dollar in this car. I am not a car connoisseur all I did was change the fluids a little earlier than the factory recommendations. I am now considering buying the new evo model as my son has finally got his driver's license and I intend my old car to be his first one. Are the new models at least as good as the old ones?

    I took EVO 9 from Japan, I wanted to have an Evo for the city, because I had an Evo 6 for training. I waited a long time for a car with mechanics + gray or black color to appear at auctions, and finally, the dream came true and after 2 months I had the car.
    First impressions are fire, handsome!
    Very hard because of 18 disks, the previous owner - the Japanese loved the low profile very much (by the way, because of this, I changed 3 hubs at once, buzzed, then after a couple of years and the 4th one too, by the way, it would be better to change it right away).
    Now the mileage is 320k and nothing, while it is driving, although there are some nuances, the clutch began to slip, I want to change the EVO to chevrolet latest models , it is more comfortable and more suitable for long car trips.

    You'll miss the Evo, I'm telling you.

    Niiiiiice these are some good numbers

    I have got 46.000 miles on my 2006 evo IX! My dad bought it in 2006, brand new from the dealership. Later, when I truned 18 years old, he gave it to me, as a a gift for passing the exams. I am driving it only during the weekends, and I guess, my EVO is spending more time in the detailing shops and tuning shops, than on the roads. I just love this car really much. I have been facing a stupid problem with it actually, I could not find the best coolant for this car! Recently, I have found this article https://cararac.com/coolant/, I am going to get the coolant recommended by them.

    One thing I learned on having Evos in the past and try not to put a lot on miles on them.....

    Drive it as much as you can as life is short.... either your life or the Evo's life...... enjoy it.

    I would drive it more often, but between work and kids, the CRV gets the most attention. We don’t have employee parking at work, so we just park in the surrounding neighborhood. Don’t trust the R or Evo there lol.

    2006 Electric Blue Pearl Evo IX, bought back in 2006. 67K miles, Garaged 95% of its life. I've probably spent more time detailing it the last 10 years than driving it.

    If I do drive it, you can catch me driving down PCH through Orange County.
