How many original owners are left?

bought an 06 TB IX GSR w 3 miles on it in August of 2006 from the Mitsu dealer in town.... 3 months ago, I bought a WW IX MR w/ 22k miles on the clock and sold the GSR.
bough mine in january 17, 2007 evo ix mr se in tarmac black. original owner still finally paid for paid over $50k for it and over $30k in mods which makes me shake my head at times. current miles 63,xxx
I've owned my '03 Evo for (a few days) more than 10 years.
Picked it up April 17th 2003 when I lived in Central Pennsylvania. Paid a little less than sticker.
Will pass 137k miles tomorrow...still on original clutch.

I love the "OG" phrase. I'm surprised there are still so many 1 owner Evos out there. lot of you guys have low mileage examples too.

06 IX 9 MR bought in April 07 from Beaverton Mitsubishi. Paid the msrp of 37k for it. There were only 3 left on the lot after I got it. Didn't take long for them to sell those soon after that. Photos of the X were just starting to come out. Got lifetime oil changes but didn't take much advantage of that due to the dealership going out of business about a year or so after I bought the car. Losing that doesn't bother me though. 16k miles on it now. Love the car just not much time to drive it.
Re:original
Bought the first 03, apex silver out from under another party from Biggers Mitsubishi. In Elgin Il. Traded it for my2006 IX MR in graphite grey. Still drive it and has about 65k on it.
I've owned my 2006 IX SE since new in Sept 2006. I got the Mitsubishi "MMNA VIP" pricing on it. IIRC, it was around $28,000 + TTL. I had wanted an Evo since they came out in 2003, but I'm very glad I waited for the end-of-the-model IX SE. It had everything I wanted (except Bilsteins) and nothing I didn't want. I have 25,500 miles on it now.
Still have another 3.5 years and 75,000mi worth of factory powertrain warranty left! Not that I think I'd need it... Other than a heat shield on the cat that literally rusted off, it's the most reliable vehicle I've ever owned.

wasn't gsr msrp 31k in 06? add the se package and its about right... dont feel to bad...
for what its worth i bought mine under msrp as far as i know but it was supposed to be loaded.... they got me for the se lip, rear strut tower bar, car cover, cargo net and something else... i was just to excited and didnt think to check... you live you learn...
its all good because other then the se lip which i picked up from rexpeed none of that would be near the car these days.... In essence i paid 36.4k for an RS with a radio.... none of the oem MR package remains except the battery voltage gauge....
