Found 05 EVO 8

Hey guys today i went in to Savannah mitsu to get some parts and they have on a trade in a 2005 EVO8. Its in what looks good shape but the cool part is it is fully loaded with an hks gt ii 760 turbo kit, with titanium exhaust, invidia O2 housing, AMS racing intercooler, upper and lower intercooler pipes, The engine ran good idled good, the clutch feels light but it sounds like it has a exedy twin because it has the same rattle mine. The inside looked all good no nrips no tears, smelled like it sat for awhile. The dealer said a soldier from ft riley traded it in on an EVO X. It is silver with a good paint, the brembos look ok, it also had some coilovers all the way around. It had 80000 miles on it.

This is not mine or do i know anything else just thought i would let you guys know about it.

Good looking out! If everything is in good condition I'm sure it will sell fast

He said $18000 but you and I know he probably only got 13000 for it so I bet they would take 15000 or so. It also needs new tires the tires were mismatched and bald.

^^^cause I dont believe in "returning back to stock" besides it means someone else can be part of the evo community, plus parts are only that parts I gained tons of experience working on it and am proud to say that its a very good car and I will miss it.
