Sold My Evo In March. Looking to get this one. Opinions?

Car is still on stock clutch. Everything aftermarket was done by roadrace engineering. What are your guys's thoughts on price, parts, etc?

I sold this car back on march 23rd:

It looks like a good buy. Id just be worried about how much life the stock clutch has left. Any idea of how much power its putting down? Says it has a 35R installed.

its beautiful but find out why he is selling exactly because ii had a guy trying to sell me his for $20,000 and it was because his clutch was going and he had a blown head gasket and a couple more faults but the car looks great just look it over

I would be all over that if I were in the market for an EVO 9. Depending on how it is driven, the clutch may have some life left, but honestly, I would upgrade the clutch right away because all the power would be worthless without a strong enough clutch to transfer that power to the ground.

The guy is selling it because he's moving. I don't know how long I would be able to drive on stock clutch.

I have an EVO VIII if you are interested. It is completely stock and is my daily driver.
Check this link out if interested.

Ahh should have never sold that gorgeous WW. I feel like i've seen this car for sale before, witht he exact price, on this site. But I guess it's possible to have a TB IX with the JDM rear and powdercoated BBS's just the same. Was for sale for 25k too..

Clutches are consumable. If you like the car, buy it.

Replace clutch as needed.

Lol at the "perfect first car" down on the bottom of that listing, I dont think Evo's are perfect first cars for the majority of kids
