I have a feeling Matty is going to like this car more than he thinks. I remember driving a evo 9 brand new when they came out and it was such a pleasure for what it was. I’ve owned my car for 13 years now and wish I could go back to when I got it and just keep the basic mods like you guys are doing. Living my dreams over by watching these videos now

[@Deagles456]

The banter between these 3 is just golden

[@dino-335]

Always good seeing this duo wrench and banter. Can’t wait for the next episode, love to see Matt grinning ear to ear driving around.

[@Yesitsqk]

Part 4 is gonna be my favorite…I can’t wait to see Matt’s reaction with the first drive, although the car with a tune and more power will be the icing on the cake

[@JC-tm6wh]

Mike F got me pumped about the giveaway, reminded me I need to hurry up and enter before its too late.

[@burgos227]

This is such a cool video. I like how everything is coming together. Evolution looks sweet.. can’t wait for the end results 👌

[@BuddyBoud]

8:48 is where Matt demonstrates his love of being one of the worlds foremost shopping 🛍️ 🛒 experts

[@timbrown9731]

Not too many people get to buy a car like this and do all the mods all at once, however I'd like for Matt to experience the upgrades to OEM+ (before and after)... Matt that's totally my opinion, you own the thing do what you want. Heck do everything at once ....

[@Dillonpickle]

Awesome build series more relatable for most of us. Entertaining slander 😉 great to see matty driving something next episode 👌

[@BarbWaltersMusic]

If you ever stop and think about this, Matt is like the Santa of all us car guys and gals. He can just buy all gifts (mods) we always wanted and make it Christmas any day of the year.

[@Desert_Spec]

What? I don't know if you're trying to suck up to him or...? He's successful and does what he likes which I respect, but you know he makes money off the fools that think they'll win these giveaway cars right? Doesn't sound anything like the idea of Santa.

[@no_lft_shft]

God I couldn't imagine winning that. I just couldn't wrap my head around what that moment would be like for someone. I do need some iron remover though lol. So I guess now would be the time to buy!

[@ObsessedGarage]

Yup. Gonna be pretty insane.

[@danielnguyen1327]

Are those green pads project mu? I stopped watching Matts videos for a bit but this new evo content got me coming back. Matt is different than most youtubers, I love hows he willing to spend the little extra for the best platform to start a profect.

[@dave3952]

Loving this “Beater” content!

[@ChristianA328]

I'm glad to know this will inevitably become a giveaway car.

[@macantonioc]

Mitsubishi also makes great gas turbines. Went to see one being built in Savannah, Georgia recently.

[@ErnstDetailing]

Why is this content so soothing to me?

[@Miikkastierusoff]

It feels like chilling with your homies in the garage tbh

[@WilliamJones-ru9xd]

LOL.....Grown up sippy cup. You guys had me laughing so hard, I almost peed myself. :)

[@jensduhem8904]

You needed to go endless brakes on it they are top of the bill

[@ianpreston1400]

Think about a car winning the owner lottery

[@chasenewberry6866]

Mitsubishi still makes the eclipse cross and the outlander. They also make really good mini splits

[@lbonken]

The stock brakes are fine for occasional track days, they will turn brown though are too much track heat. Those pads are not, you'll want something better like Dixcel Z Type or PMu HC or Endless MX72 for pads that will track and street.

[@Jballzx]

Mitsubish Starion!!! @MikeFigueira-OG

[@Deagles456]

That’s a great looking Mitsushino! 😂😂😂

[@Gregor.Forsyth]

My experience is that the sound of a new exhaust changes significantly over the first few 1000 miles as they coke up on the inside. Seems odd that you junk exhaust based in the first start and a few burns down the road.

[@RCDR1000]

Will this evo be for sale after the whole build? I’m interested if it is

[@ObsessedGarage]

Not planning on it.

[@bluevo8xx]

Loving the "beater" content. Watched this episode closely and did'nt see the spacers being fitted. What brand of spacer is being used and size please. Looking at adding spacers to my stock enkei's soon. Cheers👌Also the stock wheel nuts are called shank style or mag seat with washer.

[@JR-ho5qm]

Sorry pal! I commented once thinking that your car may have been painted. Lol! I knew in the next video it was a optical illusion because it looked fine. I’m a automotive painter of 21 years so I should have known better lol! I’m sure you know what your looking at. 👍🏻

[@Mr7O5]

Great video

[@FelixMorariu]

good stuff

[@Mike-ph1xy]

I wanna see the touring first drive. Summer is almost over Matty.

[@Carlos.Rivera]

In Florida is always summer. Maybe in December they got ton of rains.

[@timbrown9731]

Mike might be right on the timing belt it really has no heat cycling but....what the heck ..just checking is a start.

[@keithcee6378]

Darn after hearing all the “not liking” the Tomei, exhaust….Did I miss the reasoning? I was just about to order one for my 06 IX, now you have me on the fence lol

[@civic1285]

Og sippy cup Xmas 23

[@blahbergerpoke]

If you do an intake would you be willing to donate or sell the stock intake parts including the duct?

[@asphaltspecialties]

Haha I have split lots of wood never worn safety glasses

[@kore996]

We were contemplating on trading of our 2016 Toyota 4Runner, trail edition and getting the 2023 TRD Pro in solar octane but they did under coding for rust protection on it and I absolutely hate dealership under coatings. That and a couple other oddities is why we walked away from it but these people could care less when they were spraying it, it was all over the suspension and break components. Like, how can you do that to a vehicle and absolutely not give a crap… It makes me so mad.

[@tastysti]

Like and comment. For the algorithm

[@seanclark5670]

Beater if u mean a super mint car lol

[@WexWerxScott]

Man... I'd love to win the gt3... I'd totally keep the car for a while... Would basically pay for my pole barn house though

[@muradomar5649]

MURAD form Toronto 🇨🇦👋👌🤘🏻

[@kimnewling5728]

Fun.

[@tedwhite5197]

Matt is a spoiled Rich Kid ;-)

[@NeilIreland]

Are the discs fitted the wrong way round? Would have thought the slots should face the opposite way.

[@ObsessedGarage]

Nope they came marked, we double checked.

[@NeilIreland]

@@ObsessedGarage 👍 😊

[@benbirch2393]

I split 50cm x 15cm oak with a good mallet and a kindling splitter without issue....

[@burgos227]

Mitsubishi 👌

[@SuperJustin1001]

Idk if it’s me or just a bad angle, but that driver side fender looks lighter in color compared to the door and bumper

[@SuperJustin1001]

Okay got the explanation at the end of the video😂

[@timnewbury1792]

Please please Matt Bronze wheels It looks far toooooo Plain Tim Also ocd with my cars 😊😊😊😊

[@DLamb1984]

🔥 🔥

[@OscarM.94]

@6:04🤣🤣

[@taylorj959a]

the question everyone wants to know is, will the upgrades come close to what you spent on the Porsche? when I say upgrades I mean the "final" upgrades as we all know there will be a stage 2, 3 and 4! ;-) second question, is there ANYTHING Mike can't do?

[@vongdong10]

Nah, I doubt it. I bet he'll spend about 1/2 of what he did with the porsche.

[@taylorj959a]

@@vongdong10 I see new rims, which will mean another set of tires, $6k stereo, upgrade to ceramic brakes, motor upgrades, PPF and etc.

[@vongdong10]

@taylorj959a I dont think he'll do that much with the motor. PPF though, depends he much of the car he's covering. Was carbon ceramics mentioned in this video? I can see the total being closer to 2/3 of the porsche now as I forgot about the ppf

[@Riverguide33]

👍

[@NoHandleAT]

I can't wait for the First Drive disappointment... I predict: 1st drive... 1 week later "Next Give Away car"

[@beauhenderson4959]

They’re great cars I don’t think he will be disappointed

[@beauhenderson4959]

The first drive video is up

[@NoHandleAT]

@@beauhenderson4959 I will give it to you it wasn't a complete disappointment, but I don't know man... I think that reaction at 31:34 (that shoulder raise, look at the camera and "its ok") that to me is a "meh...".

[@weSteh]

Australian viewer here, what's Mike specifically mean by taxes? In Australia you pay once, stamp duty, then it's just yearly vehicle registration and insurance. What's the deal with the continual ongoing gov theft tax?

[@derekhead7068]

In the U.S. winning something like this giveaway or the lottery, it is looked at by the government as income. So if the resale value of the GT3 RS is $300k, you have to pay the government roughly 25% of that ($75,000). You then have to pay your State government tax on $300k which is different state-by-state, but is usually 10% or less ($30,000). So, if you win you would have to pay 25-30% of the total value of the giveaway when your taxes are due. If there is cash included in the giveaway that would be added on top of $300k. Then you would have your yearly registration fees which is determined by the year/value of the car and then your monthly car insurance to be rod legal.

[@mmaiolo]

In the US, the winner has to declare the value of the car as income and pay their % of income tax.

[@blake8297]

We pay taxes for everything. Already paid taxes? Do it again.

[@weSteh]

@@derekhead7068 wow, what a rip off. This is socialism.

[@weSteh]

@@mmaiolo thanks

[@dannyl3858]

I would just live in the gt3 rs. Sell the wife

[@AlexJH1]

It's not really a beater is it?.. Is it because it isn't a high-end Porsche or BMW?..

[@MartynFlowers]

He had planned to buy a ‘beater’, then found this and couldn’t resist!

[@MrXyemoe]

Bro, stop calling it Beater 😂 lol

[@jyoung3801]

The good old days… of suicidal pilots. Yikes.

[@pace628]

Sorry Matt, you are slowly poisening yourself with that sugar/candy/carb stuff. Half of it is fructose that only the liver can convert into fat and the fructose will eventually cause Fatty Liver Disease. No wonder you sleep badly and get tired quickly. Get a grip on this!
