+1 Give it a once over about ten times and then a couple more after that.

Depends on your budget and what youre after. If you already have an evo and you want a second one to use as a dd, why not. If $14000 is your max u can afford, Id rather buy that evo than a kia

I can see what your going for, but if your looking to get an evo for cheap thats a little ****ed up, look for one that has been well taken care of, but just got into an accident. I have seen clean evo's (engine/interior) that got into accidents and selling for cheap. Keep looking and find something you trust. Too many problems with the car just by looking at it (I can see a few grand of money needed right off the bad) and who knows what the engine/clutch/tranny look like after 60,000 miles of that ****. Keep looking you'll find what you need!!! GL

The damage that I can see does not add up to the car being totaled/salvaged, obviously there had/has to be more of a problem then can be seen that gave it that salvaged title. I say........ No

Car looks very sketchy. I guess its worth a look, but as anyone else will tell you be very cautious and look at things carefully. Who knows how much of that 67K was spent kicking the **** out of the car. See if they are flexible on the price as well. If not spend a little more money and buy something without a salvage title.

I say PASS..
I wouldn't buy that thing for even 5k..
Well maybe 5k and make it a full track car, - maybe..
Salvaged title is asking for many problems..

imho, keep looking and find one "at least" thats not salvaged.

Thanks for the info. I will NOT be looking further into it, but I still have my eyes open for one.
