Thinking of getting back into an Evo (#4 is a charm?)

Well long story short I have had a void in my life since I sold off my Evo(s). I replaced it with a few S2000s, an E46 M3 and a few others. Nothing was like it.Looking to get into another IX and happen to find a IX SE on my coast. However the non negociable price is kinda on the high side? 25k mi $25kfirm. Needs tires (stock advans made it that long) No accidents, 1 owner. Just need someone to slap me and say your crazy go for it. The car will be stored in winter and strictly an autox/ weekend car.

1st Evo. 06 GG MR



2ND 03 GSR



3RD 04 GSR


4TH...Soon to be 06 GSR SE

That is a good price if it has been untouched.

The IX is the last of a classic look IMO. The X is whole new car and some may some say not as true to the breed as the others. To each their own, I say go for the IX!

i went from an X to an viii ACD. driving experience totally different. you're gonna put a multifunctional display on it, seats, rims, suspension etc, why pay for an X? ppl say the interior of the viii/ix is not as nice as the X? since when the hail is the interior of the X nice anyway?!.

these ppl I LOL at them.

you're gonna replace everything and tear out the carpet anyway. why bother paying for it.

so basically, performance is #1 priority. so therefore ... eyah.

I paid much less than that for my 28k mile SE

if it's an auto-x weekend car, why do you want a new low mile one? save $6-8k and buy an 03-04 viii that hasn't been abused
