Hi All!

Yesterday was partly a sad day but also a very exciting day aswell.

I said good buy to my CTR that I have had for five years, which was running at 230BHP. It was an exceptionally fun car to drive and I think that I suprised alot of people. Eitherway whoever buys it is going to have a great car.

Heres it is:






Any who, I decided to part with this and replace with an EVO 9 FQ 360 (Number FQ 027). Picked it up yesterday, with 34000 miles. It has been remapped to 395Bhp and apart from that it is standard. The car is immaculate!!!

I have only driven it around 30 mile so far, but what a 30mile it has been :)

Here's a few snaps.














All in all, im am quite privileged to own such a machine. Maybe within the near future I will start to look at possible modifications, but the jump in power from the CTR is enough to keep me happy for the time being.

Thanks for looking!!

Thanks guys!! :)

I am tempted to change the wheels, potentially black or gunmetal. Maybe look at getting some Advan RS's.

Keeping black cars clean is a nightmare!!

With regards to cleaning do you have any recommndations as to what to use.

I have heard the DoDo Juice Lime Prime and Blue Velevet are a good combination?

The CTR I had was a immaculate as well. I think the the 5 years I had it i must of only covered no more than 8000 mile. It would of been nice to be able to keep that as well as have the EVO but couldn't justify having both :sad:
