I'm willing to drive up to 600mi .. there is actually a white MR I found .. it's an 05 w/ 23k asking 29. I think 29 is a bit high although they're trying to say that the sound system (which is NICE) makes it worth extra and the fact that there are a lot of parts. I'm going to try to talk em down to 26 and trade em mine to see what kind of deal i can get. Although it seems a bit odd they're running a 3065 and only making 375whp. Not sure if it's mustang or dyno jet numbers, even on a mustang that seems a bit low.. I'm going to call tomorrow to see what's up.

ya 375hp is a lot low for that size turbo. i know at least 3 people with that same size turbo running at least 458hp on a mustang dyno. find out what gas they are running and boost level.

I had been searching for over 6 months and finally a local Mitsubishi dealership got the exact one that I wanted. I still feel lucky.

Private sale is your best bet. Dealers mark up for more profit. Then, you pay more.

I bought my 04 STI (flew to KC, KS to get it) and my 06 Evo IX (flew to PHX, AZ to get it) from posters on this site. Just be patient. There are some real amazing Evos that come up for cheap periodically. There are some really nice ones.
