Fair price?

2005 Evo8 RS, 24k for $21k from a reputable dealership. Haven't gone to look at it yet, but I assume it is stock or has a few mods. Are RS worth significantly less/more/the same, as the Evo8?(Can't compare to the MR )

Am I missing something critical that Evo owners want in their cars?:

Manual windows
No wing, stereo, trunk liner, no HID
Aluminum roof

None of these are really an issue to me other than the manual windows, but i'm sure I can find a way to install them using OEM equipment. I just want a clean Evo in my range, which this one seems to be.....

Thats seems like a decent price. The mileage is low. To add to your list Rs's dont come with ABS which might or might not be a big deal to you.

Ah yes, forgot about that too. Eh, it would be nice, I drove my 350z last winter ABSless and I managed ok. I'm a chicagoian, I've seen snow one or twice.

Seems like a good deal....if you end up not buying it, please PM me with the details on where I can get in touch with the seller. I'm looking to build up a hillclimb car and am having trouble finding a suitable car to start with.

Thanks,

Dave
