is this evo a good deal?

this isnt for me its for a friend and the evo in question if from one of my other friends i know how the car was treated and all that.. so i dont need the answers of well the car was probly raced and beat up and what ever it was well taken care of and is in 100% perfect shape well here are the specs

2003 spex silver evo 8
12,600 miles

EVO VIII Silver,Front canard kit ,GREDDY TT, HKS SSQBOV, HKS Grounding Kit ,HKS EIDS System, SS Clutch line, 3" HELIX Down Pipe, 3" HKS
Carbon ti catback exhaust, Vishnu X-FLASH, Greddy Profec B, Greddy Boost, EGT, Oil Press 60mm Gauges , HKS RS Intake Kit , Rallie Art
radiator shroud, stock wheels brand new with new tires he had volks on from about day one , TEIN S-tech springs, CUSCO front strut tower bar, INVIDA test
pipe, walbro 255 lph fuel pump, Evo 7 tails, 300$ panasonic deck, weighted momo shift knob, Oil catch can, tint, clear bra, Tuned and dynoed 337 AWHP/ 344 AWTQ

well anyways buddy asked me to post this and see some responses on if it seems like an ok deal he was sketch about it becuase he looked up blue book and it was like 27,000

my buddy wants 30,900 for the evo only reason he is asking this is becuase its exactly what he ows on the car just wants to pay it off.

personally i dont think its 2 bad of a deal only thing that struck me was u could possibly pull out a new 05 gsr for about that price but this does have a lot of nice little work on it and its mainly the annoying bolt ons so.... yeah

What kind of finance rate did he get for the car? How can he owe so much? Good luck if your friend can get anywhere near that price

Really? Guess my window sticker lied to me then?

As for the price: He'll be lucky to get Blue Book for it.

330 even 340 whp is consistently possible with those mods. A full exhaust, a boost controller and a good Flash is 330-340 all day!!!! Add cams and an intake and 350-360 whp is all yours!
