This makes me miss my old EP3.
I wonder if I saw that car at any EP meets. I got rid of the EP for the WRX. I had a 02 Silver. |

Yeah, I'll detail any car that's paying! The owner of this car is having me come back in 2 weeks and I'm doing a wash/wax/spot buff of his sister's Lancer. He lived in Arizona until last year and now is in IL. He's on MWIR and JDMChicago, that's where I know him from. He took it to the IllGarage BBQ this past weekend. |

That's definitely NOT a Type-R.

Man I remember when I used to drive my old EP3. Makes me sad I sold it sometimes.

Looks good, and I rarely say that about Hondas.
I spot a Lancer in the 2nd to last pic. |
