buying a used evo, what do ya think?
Hey guys, im new here. Im trading in my srt4 on this http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.js...r=&cardist=143 , and just wanted to know if this is a good price? Im getting it for my car on trade (14,500 ouch) and this out the door for the 28500. Im getting preapproval as we speak. I really want a e-blue 05, but jeez, this has got allot going for it allready. Hopfully my next post will be about modding this car.
thanx billy
guy says he has a list of stuff from the previous owner. Not sure how he came up with 15k tho. anyway from the looks of the car its in great shape. Im going to go look at it on friday if the preapproval goes through.

I'd be curious what the $15K in upgrades are. Make sure you have it thoroughly checked out by a mechanic that has experience with EVOs.

I would never buy someone else's modified car. Buy a used, unmolested Evo and build on top of that. If you want to save money, buy the parts used. Even then you have to know what you're buying and what they're worth.

I'd be highly suspicious of a car w/tons of mods that's on sale. You might end up w/someone elses problem. If I were searching for a used car I'd prefer it to be unmodified. Besides Im sure you can fin an 03 in the 22k-24k range.
Do Not Buy
PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS,
Go find a stock used Evo, save you tons of money
$22k-$24k should be good.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
See, a 5000 miles evo for $24k
