if you consider yourself lucky, take it for a spin, in my case I wouldn't touch it, with my luck I get hit by a dude in a wheelchair.

what would you do if he took your car out for a spin with out asking. Your car maybe slower then his and you may ask why would he ever take my car out.


Any car is fun to drive when taking out trash cans, mail boxes, running down a dirt road seeing how high he can get the tires off the ground. You can see were someone might be motivated to take your car out. You wouldnt like that would you?


Not saying you would do that, just pointing out that why you might want to ask him first before taking it out.

dude..let me tell you somethin...if hes leaving the keys with you...first of all he trusts you enough with your car that even if you did take it out you could come up with a good enough excuse....like i ran to the store caus my car was out of gas...but if i were you i would take apart the dash and disconect the gauge cluster so it doesn't read mileage...he def. check that before he left to make sure you not just out joyridin...but a couple times around the block and around town im sure he wouldnt mind...just fill it up with gas....have some fun and dont sweat it....go take it out and have fun...ITS AN EVO DUDE!!! GO NOW

a) evos arent all that and a bundle of cakes

b) don't disrespect a friend by going behind his back and joy riding in his car

c) obey the rules, Would you like him in turn while your gone to take your stuff?

d) If you wana drive an evo so bad go to a dealership, or ask him to take you out when he gets back

IT'S YOUR FREAKIN HOUSE!! and besides, a car has to be started and driven otherwise it could grow crusty and stale and cause problems.

You're doing him a FAVOR by ensuring proper maintenance of his car by pushin 140's.

So just send him a text message after you get back to let him know that your helpin him out, and that his car has been in good hands

Simply just ask him before he leaves, just say "hey, would you mind if I took your car for a spin around the block?" more than likely he will say yes and accompany you. Worst comes to worst he says "maybe when I get back" and you continue your life like normal.


p.s.
if you do take other peoples advice, make sure you bring your digital camera along and take a pic of the speedo and tack maxed out.

1. ask him if you can take it out.
2. evo9's are fast. Especially lightly modded. The grip and power that car has in 1st and 2nd gear is insane. My buddy has one, and even on the highway hes always inching away from me. With exhaust/boost controller and a tune, those cars can run high 11s.
3. Be careful. Most (not all) evo owners are dusche bags.

You have GOT to be kidding me. You talk big, but I bet you wouldn't even THINK of trying that if say, DEATH was to park his car at your house for a week while he was out of town (assuming he'd be dumb enough to leave you the keys, which I HIGHLY doubt). You'd be a quivering little boy before you even admitted to thinking about it out loud.

FCUK THAT!! If Death left his car in my garage for a week, I'd owe him $400 for new tires when he got back He know's i would too, It's a given. Besides, he's drove mine before Fair is Fair

But he'd never have to do that, besides, he's pretty strict about his car... I don't believe his girl of several years has ever driven it either. At my B-Day BB-Q a few weeks ago, those two were asking me to make Death's margarita's "Pass-out-Strong" so she couldn't drive home, and his chick would FINALLY get to (not that it did anything other than make them taste better ) the two of us don't easily get drunk Witch is actually a bad thing more expensive (BTW: that was half a bottle tequlia, and a half bottle triplesec just in the 3 rita's split by you me and your chick Now you know my secret recipe, 90% alc)

yeah, don't do it. if he never let you drive it with him then don't even think about it without him.

not 1 other soul has driven my car since the build. i'd be pissed if someone took it for a joy ride.
my friends don't even ask anymore, to me its like them asking if they can **** my girlfriend.
wait, worse than that.

x1000 some things wash off - the taint of someone having driven my baby will never go away. Plus, look at it this way - If it were my car and you took her out and wrecked her [you not being used to the power etc etc] I would hunt you down, torture then kill you. Not a joke, not a threat. I value 3 things in my life: My car, my kids and my girl. If you test drive any of them you will pay.
D-man knows what's up [and dude i don't even remember those drinks - glad I waited to sober up before driving]
great - I'm gonna have Bone Thugs stuck in my head the rest of the day Pop pop, pop pop, pop pop...

Once my friend left his car at my house with his keys and he was a close buddy if mine, I didnt touch his car knowing that even if I did he wouldnt say anything. I guess if you're really into cars (maybe its more like common sense) you wouldnt touch other people car no matter how tempted you are, I think that its just the respect that we, car enthusiasts have for each others.


Oh and my buddy's car is an bright yellow EVO X.

See? You just contradicted yourself. You're already quivering and cowering. Anyway bfd he drove your car. I'm sure he had your permission. That's kinda the point here - PERMISSION. Ya just don't mess with other people's sh1t w/out permission. Ya might as WELL test drive the g/f!

Speaking of which, itchy, what does your g/f look like? LOL

You are a sick, sick woman

Permission is the key i suppose, but anyone leaves their car in my position with the keys is basically giving me permission. And how am i cowering? I'll be a Death's place on Friday and we'll be having a good laugh about this

But for the sake of argument on the thread, daazndood, just go test drive one at a dealership, then call you buddy and tell him how great (another) 06 lan evo IX handles (thats like banging his girlfriends sister in some peoples terminology )

I don't even know yet. I know she'll be a bitch though.
I'm single

Working on it though, met a nice girl in NYC who's a aspiring model but well see how far it goes.
