Buying a evo need help

Hey everyone Im new to this forum and very close to buying a 06 evo mr for $34,700 from a dealer in NJ. The car is mint it only has 845miles on it its GG. I already put a down payment on it and will pick it up sat if all goes well. do you guys think its worth it??? I dont think im going to find another evo with only 800 miles on it and this will not be my DD.

I would say thats on the high side but I know that low mileage Evo IX's are going for high prices since people are still trying to find them that don't like the X. Considering the last 2 Evos I saw for sale was an MR that was $40,000 and the SE that I own which was $38,700 and I got that reduced to $35,500 with 107 miles on it. I would say for that mileage its not unreasonable. Good luck with it.

If it was me i'd get a slightly used (20k miles) evo for $7-8k less but if you want one with super low miles then go for it!

Either way im sure you'll be happy!

Find out where the 800 miles came from. What it the beat-on tester than all the salesmen got to try out? Price seems way too high for a demo'd car.

I hope it's not the one in the showroom where everyone goes in and dry shifts the crap out of it.

yeah sounds like a possible demo car? also is this the mr that I believe an Acura dealer is selling? I remember seeing a very low low mileage Mr on autotrader but upon further review, it was actually a 05 Mr not 06 Mr although it was listed as an 06

most likely those miles were beat. That is way to high for a IX MR, you can find them for 28 29k, keep looking..
