Opinions: Is this a good deal
 
Im a previous EVO 8,9 owner and thinking about a Ralliart. I saw this one on ebay and with the mods it seems like a great deal. Just looking for opinions.....

HA!! That's hilarious.

If I didn't already have a Ralliart and wanted a Sportback, I think this would be a great deal!

its a good deal..considering the mods and the mileage....If I wanted a sportback I would look into how feasable it is to buy a car in VA. Where at in KS are you?

Its a WONDERFUL deal. If I didnt have my car I'd buy it. That thing will spank the crap out of a stock EvoX or even a tuned one at that.

Pffft.....that car is ok but this one is much better :lol:

It's a pretty much brand new car with over $6k in quality aftermarket parts and for less than stock blue book value. I'd say it's an amazing deal that you will not come across ever again.

Its also a brand new car with no powertrain warranty. No offense to RideSober, but buying a car thats been heavily modified is a huge risk. If the seller cut corners or otherwise damaged the car when they put the mods on, you could be buying a lemon. With the expense of transmissions, center diffs, and other components these days, that great deal could turn into a huge money pit.

Now, before I get slammed, I'm not saying any of this pertains to RideSober. I'm sure he modded his car with the utmost care and did everything properly. It looks like he used all high-quality components. I'm just saying, in general, buying a used vehicle that's been modded and priced really cheap is a very risky situation.

But then again, if you were gonna do that anyways...yeah then worth it. And you even have a pretty good history of what the car has been through from this site. But yeah I do agree, it's a huge risk...but it's a huge risk if you do this to a new car anyways as well...at least this way, you save several grand up front.
