Hey guys, ap2 s2000 driver and long time EVO fanboy

I've wanted a WW IX MR for a while now and the time to pick one up is finally just around the corner (graduating in May starting work is July!). However, I've been pretty discouraged about the lack of stock (or near stock) MRs available on the market. I've mainly searched the forums here, autotrader, local craigslist. Getting pretty discouraged about ever finding a stock IX MR.

For those of you who that have a clean stock (near stock) IX MR post up some pics Need some motivation to keep looking haha. Or if you have any suggestions s to where else I should be looking let me know as well

I'll start by sharing some pics of my car !

 

keep looking i am sure you will find one, also try looking out of state too. When you say stock what you mean? because it will be very hard to find a BONE stock evo, everyone likes to put an exhaust and intake and a cpl of gauges, which i think dont hurt the value of the car. the car is still considered stock to me IMO

 

Try checking out www.carmax.com, sometimes you get lucky there, search on eBay.

 

I've expanded to a pretty big radius (500miles), I'm not worried about buying a car out-of-state just don't wanna have to go to west coast haha. It doesn't have to be bone stock. Intake, exhaust is fine. Pretty much anything that is reversible. I just don't want anything with crazy tunes and upgraded clutch...etc.

I'm just one of those ppl that likes their car to start out as a blank canvas...err if that makes sense.

@ 06MRV8Killer,
good idea, haven't looked on ebay yet.

 

i know you said you want to avoid going to the westcoast, but sam at southcoast mitsubishi has/had 4 brand spanking new 06 mr's in stock that he's selling. i'm sure he'd hook you up and he'll ship it to you...gl

 

Mine is 100% stock minus the JDM bumper. I prefer to keep my 10yr/100,000 warranty.

 

thats good if you dont care about exhaust, intake and little things like these, i am sure you will find one.

btw a good tip when looking at the car also look at the radiator fins and make sure they are not bent, which means thee have messed with the turbo, because there is people that will swap turbos(from big gt35r to 16g) to sell the car as "stock"

 

Thats a good tip. I'll keep that in mind.

 

Beautiful! The exact color I want too lol.

 

Looks very good sir. And I admire your will power not to upgrade. Because when you start that's when you can't finish. never ending battle I tell you.
