Is it worth it?

I found an evo on ebay with 50000 miles on it.The owner is a member on here. What I am trying to say is, is it worth 19000?

I'm almost positive that every Evo was driven hard just because of the fact that they are performance cars...theres not much you can do about it. You'll find out once things start to break. When it comes to performance cars...i believe your best bet is to save up and buy a new ix, therefore you will be worry free as to how the car was driven. Also..50k miles and a 03 (no 10 yr 100k mile warranty on 03s) ..not much left on the warranty....but i must include..the 4g63 is known for performance and reliability. Its all about how bad you want the car for a price you can afford...But id still go with a new evo ix.

It gorgeous, it's definately worth it, especially with the mods in it. Since there are not really any heavy performance mod = less harsh on the car, could be just my guess. I say if you are close by, you should take a look at it and decide for yourself.

Used cars are a gamble. Especially used sports cars. Worth is relative. It all depends on if you are willing to take the plunge and are able to put the money into it if and when it needs maintenance or breaks. BTW It's gonna need a new timing belt soon.
