06 Evo MR opinions (pics inside)
It has SSL leather seats. Both headlights are the same. The fan up front is probably OEM, but just painted red. Just looking at these pics you shared, I'd say it's probably a fair deal at $16k. I've seen salvage IX's with higher mileage listed for close to that and more sometimes. If you aren't mechanically inclined, have a friend who is go check it out with you, or maybe take it to AWD for an inspection or a similar shop for peace of mind.
One thing with red is to have someone look at the paint closely. Red is very hard to match, so if it's been wrecked, someone with a trained eye should be able to tell. Also check all VINs on it- rad support, hood, fenders, doors, rear bumper and trunk. Check the engine VIN too while you're at it.

Ive seen on orlando craigslist, if i were you i would saved a bit more and try to look for a better one. I have seen good deals on the ix with around 50k miles for 20k lately.

Is anyone going to point out the fact its a rally red IX MR? Which is pretty rare! It does scare me that it doesn't have the original MR seats, but maybe the owner just liked leather better. I wouldn't count this vehicle out if the seller is willing to go lower on the price & provide maintenance records.
dont jump on this right away i would look around first i almost garuntee u can find a better deal. the price is pretty high for my taste but can be argued with what u get and it being an MR, everyone on here is right about their input but just ask urself 130k? yeah its nice and all that but these cars are beat on no what anyone sais hes gunna say anything to make you fork over 16k. i know i beat the **** out of mine lol so just think thats 130 k miles worth high rpm revving, maybe a few launches, basically very spirited driving. in my opinion a evo with that high of mileage is just gunna turn into a money pit. good luck and i hope im wrong if u end up buying it
ya it's kinda weird. you Gota enter the vin in the URL after the = Like this:
