i’ve been thinking about getting a lancer evo 6.5, but i’d actually be using it as a daily and not just a weekend car.

my usual driving is around 30km total per day, mostly normal road use with some traffic. i know these cars are old now and obviously not exactly built to be cheap commuters, so i’m trying to be realistic before getting too attached to the idea lol.

for anyone who owns or has daily driven an evo 6 or 6.5, how manageable is it for that kind of mileage? more worried about maintenance, reliability, parts availability, fuel consumption, and whether daily use starts getting annoying after a while.

would you trust one for regular 30km daily driving if it’s been maintained properly, or is it better kept as a second car?
