[omllenado]

wow that's one mean vr4, btw how much did u sell it?, was looking for one
back then in california but this audi gave me away.
was it a 4g63 turbo engine?, I'm excited that mitsubishi will be bringing
its Evolution VII to the u.s. well subaru got here first, but these are mean
machines I dunno about the riding comfort if they mach against audi. i love
this car.
