This Evo makes me sad, how badly it was put back together

 

Whats the story on it for those of us unfamiliar cuz it looks like a clean Evo.

 

them wheels are hideous/ rice

other then that, the car is clean

 

^^ It is having and Evo 8/9 identity crisis. Notice the seats, tails/heads, etc..

 

Its an Evo IX. Lets see if ppl can name everything wrong with it!

 

lol, i say we all call his #: 407-699-5055 And tell him how big of a deushebag he is for selling such a poorly parted together car like that. Oh and asking 22500 for it! Ridiculous!!!!!

 

Too far away from me, and the mileage is to high (for me)for a used evo. But I thought the car was in better shape than you guys say.

What's the story on this one I'd like to know? Just curious...

 

Besides the 8/9 identity crisis, did anyone esle notice that the "good condition" Recaro seats look like they've been sat in by a 500 lbs man for 30 years?

 

is that evo 8 seats with evo 8 door panels, evo 8 head lights and evo 8 tail lights?

is that a big hole in the intercooler?

it is set on gravel???

63k is the guage cluster from a 05 evo 8?

what a mess!!!!

STevo

 

So I guess they didn't sell this confused IX last time they had it on ebay...

I might give 'em a call and just mess with them.

 

wow its pretty lame im down to call him lolz

 

Looks like he traded all of the good stuff to a VIII owner before selling it.

 

Haha, So i called and gave him $h1t. Here was a rundown of the conversation:

Me: Do you have a black Evo IX for sale?
Him: Yes
Me: What kind of condition is it in?
Him: Its in very good condtion, only 60 some thousand miles.
Me: How many owners?
Him: Just 1
Me: Has anything been done to it?
Him: Nope, its stock. Oh umm the clutch was replaced with a stage 2 or 3.. oh and he took off the airbox
Me: Well what happened to the Leather Seats that come in all IXs?
Him: I dont know it just came like that, maybe he just special ordered it that way.
Me: lol
Me: Well, what about the headlights, tailights, wheels, and door panels? Did he special order all 8 parts for those too?
Him: Im not sure, probably..
Me: lol
Him: Have a nice day {click}

Here is what I'm betting happened.

Case A: The car was in some type of accident, the owner cheaped out, bought the crappiest parts he could find and traded it or sold it to the dealer.

Case B: The owner stripped the IX parts off, sold them, replaced with junkyard 8 parts, and sold it / traded it to the dealer.

Case C: The dealership got it as a totaled car, rebuilt it (poorly), and is selling.

Either way, dont buy this car. If the airbox was completely removed, the turbo is dusted. And who knows what else is wrong or going on under the hood.

 

Did you tell him you were trying to help him sell the car on evom?

 

Can someone please explain to me how a dealer doing sketchy shizzle is news?
