Ideally, Id want a pair of Bride Gias recliners with the carbon kevlar back...but that stuff is too baller. But yeah, i just want ONE quality seat for me.
eventually... but i'm going performance first then looks..

start off with some intakes, exhaust, all the pipes, fmic, etc.. then suspension/brakes.. then maybe mess with some meth injections and stuff...

but ya, I'm on Evom and socalevo... I'll check for any seats for sale. Personally, I'd look for seats from previous Evos... X came with crappy seats compared to IX

The quality of X seats went down dramatically... the holder for belt strap is crap... that thing is half loose and fake carbon fiber... I also heard a few cases of the seat tearing up already from the back. Dealer is covering the problem, but still... tearing seats???

Man... sometimes I just want to pick up an automatic luxury car. Like a IS350...

I really need to stop buying first generation cars... It's like.. if I'm one of the first, then it's cool cause I can get some cheap sponsored ****... I always buy them at the end of the first year... so I'm still stuck with the problematic car, but no sponsorships.

well I'm down for whatever! Cris is good at fishing so I'm sure he'll know spots. I love fishing, just never caught anything... except for those man made pounds in China that's the size of a swimming pool and has 10000 fish inside...

damn really that bad huh? i hear about the problems the evo x has, but i never though they were that serious. but i guess that's pretty damn bad if it grinds 2nd and 3rd gear. gimme a ride in your evo next time. i considered getting the exactly same car as you, even the color, but it was a little more expensive and i had stuff to save up for to pay.
