Thinking of buying this evo need help take a look at the engine bay
Get him down on the price, he is asking to high for an 03, especially if it is private owner. Make sure he has stock pipes and BOV. Other wise lookes like it was cleaned up very well. maybe some more pictures would help. and maybe a sound clip to listen how it runs. The upper pipe and that atmospheric bov isn't making any power on this setup from what I see.
He has a VTA blow off valve (it should be recirculating)
He wrapped the stock exhaust mainfold (stock mani is cast, take the wrap off and check for cracks)
Ask for all the stock parts but looks fine to me
Good Luck

Not a bad price. I just paid 19.5K for a bone stock 03 with 40k on it and it was from a dealer. If it is a private seller I think you should be able to talk him down. evoix10 has the right idea on the wrapped manifold.

If you wanna buy that EVO for 18 THOUSAND DOLLARS...<--- I have some swampland in Florida Id like to sell you for 16 STACKS then, you can save 2K and buy a 1G that should run high 12's with a datalogger and a MBC. Its a paradise.... Look what you have to look forward too!!! 
And also if you like the 2G, just like the picture shows. Never buy a 2G DSM without a 1G 6 bolt "sexual chocolate" block on 2G pistons and 1G rods. And NEVER, NEVER buy a Evo with heat tape on the damn radiator hose and that just looks like bad luck. Good luck!!

It looks like the UICP hose is frayed. Personally, I'd look for a bonestock Evo. You gamble buying someone else's (self inflicted) problems otherwise.
