Transmission fluid, Rear Differential and transfer case fluids changed every 10-15k using only GMS & Mitsubishi Diaqueen. The car was waxed a minimum of once a month. Complete timing belt maintenance along with serpentine belt was done at 67,000 miles. Brakes were done at 50,000 miles. NEW Pirelli tires have only 3000 miles on them and cost over $800! I have a notebook with logs of all maintenance done with mileage/dates performed.

Inspection is good to 2009!

I am selling because I no longer have the time to enjoy it anymore and I am trying to increase my savings to buy a house in the near future. The car has high mileage especially for a 2005, however, over 30k of it is from commuting to college. The car has been babied in terms of maintenance and modifications. The paint looks astounding for the mileage. I would like $23,000 for the car. I think that is fair considering the care, mods, mileage and other local EVOs for sale. The car needs nothing except a good owner. EMAIL ME with inquiries only. Thanks ElectricEVO@gmail.com

Its ok. Yeah man, anyone who knows me knows what a fanatic I am about EVOs, mine in paticular. All of my friends are shocked and thought I was kidding about selling it. Its just one of those decisions that I had to make in order to really make my financial future come together quicker. I will be able to pay off my credit card debt 2 years quicker and be able to start saving immediately. It is just a smart financial move for me. With that said, I dont have to sell it, I would just rather sell it and get it over with and then be upset, as Im trying not to think about life without the EVO

I technically do not know. I was on the dyno at 1320 Motorsports but had some issues that day and it made 442whp/440wtq@29psi (tapering to 26psi). We then added some timing and leaned it out a tad, but my LICP clamp came loose and had to take it off the dyno to fix it. This was in 90* heat and after 13 dynos pulls. The car was extremely hot as the facility was quite sub-par. Never had it back on the dyno since.

BTW, once you buy a house you can throw away that financial freedom part for
the next 15 or 30 years.


Good luck.

That is one beautiful evo! Puts my '05 to shame (with only 25k miles). Good luck with the sale. IMHO, that price is a steal.
