hi everybody can i get some advice..

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...046218276&rd=1

im gonna take the 11 hour drive down to tennesee for this bad boy.. im new here and its my first evo. hopefully only evo. just want some advice on it, what to look for, etc.. its a one owner with no mods so im expecting it to not be beat on at all(hopefully the tranny will be alright, ive heard stories about the 03s). Can i swap on a normal evo spoiler no problem? Is this an "SSL" package?

thanks alot guys, just give me as much advice as possible

Hard to tell if it boost or not there's some kind of gauge stuck in the cubby hole,why it's there i don't know you can't see it at all.

I dont see anywhere that they say it is an SSL...

SSL is the sun sound and light package or something like that...It would mean that it has HID's (which I think that all 03's have iirc even though it says halogen lights), leather seats, a sun roof, and an infinity sound system.

Its def not an SSL though

My thoughts exactly. If you do decide to buy it, I hope it wasn't abused....

You can clearly see a sun roof in the first couple of pics..... maybe its a SSL with swapped interior?

It's not an SSL, because SSL wasn't a package until later years. That's why you guys are confused.

What I don't understand is how you said it's a one owner with no mods, yet we all can clearly see the mods, and you don't seem to greatly alarmed. I'd bet $100 you are going to get pwnt by this thing about a month after you buy it. Any takers?
