My opinion.

Don't sell a high performance vehicle that you are not confident will survive a high performance enviroment.

And to think that the EVO (especially the RS and MR versions) and the STI are ANYTHING but high performance vehicles that ARE marketed to those interested in a high performance vehicle is insane.


Racing is racing. But with a proper maintenence schedule their is no reason why a car would need anything considered substantial warranty claims work because of autoxing it.


Karens 961LE has well over 200,000 miles and a TON of autoxing.
