Spotted a black one last night in Surrey... not sure if it's someone off the board...

I usually wave so if you see a goof in a 04 RA waving it's me...

agreed, Evo IXs are so cheap nowadays with our dollar being so strong, make the effort and go pick one up.

a relatively stock GSR or MR go for about 21-22k.

watch out for the taxes though

hmmm. it depends on the kind of accident why it was written off. IMO the low price reflect the fact that you wont be able to sell it back on the market for its a rebuild car that easy. he might even let it go for less than what hes asking (17.5 to 18)...

if you import a similar car, non rebuild. you are prolly looking into spending 25k cad if your lucky, to high twenties...

also, the tein s tech springs needs to go. replace it to a better spring like swift or gtworks...

Yea, i went to take a look. He wont drop the price anymore and the car actually got into 2 accidents and there was damage on the front end and the rear. While I gotta say it was clean when I saw it. Hard to justify spending that kinda money on a rebuilt car. Also the car was "tuned" by a shop in burnaby but he has no idea what shop or who tuned it which outs me off like crazy.


oh about that cheap red evo up north I msg her too and she told me it was a red Lancer Evolution thats automatic and has a H8 for a engine. Also that she has moved to England and that the car is in possesion on eBay which will ship the car when I pay.... yea okay

Guess the search goes on
