How much are you paying for this car?

I think you can afford the $50 for an AutoCheck 1-month subscription or a CarFax 5-pack of reports

Make up a B.S. eBay sale for a random car. Price it at $1 mil or so (so no one buys it), get the vin off that car and use it. In like 5 mins you should be able to get the autocheck off the listing for free.

STOP PM'ING ME FOR CARFAX'S, I ONLY HAD THIS ONE LEFT

4 accidents. 2 previous owners. Carfax says it worth $1,660 less than book value. When I get home from work I can post screen shots of the report. No wonder its cheap...

Carfax emailed a link, here's the URL.

Stay away.

It's a normal Evo but with manual windows. Car has a wing, has a stereo, etc., etc.

Unless you're getting it just for a track car, then you might not care about previous accidents. But it's been beat on if it's been in 4 accidents.

^Car is an RS.

Red really sucks to paint match. It's probably easier to walk on water.

I'm aware. What I mean was the features and draw of the RS was a track-ready car. This car has had a bunch of those features "added back". Trunk has a wing and means it's drilled (and also VERY likely not the stock trunk, considering how many accidents the car has been in). Car has a stereo and speakers and all that jazz in it.

Either way, every corner of the car has been repaired. You'd better hope the shops who did the work are damn good if that much of the car has been touched

You should talk your friend into a normal evo as a daily. RS lacks AC, power windows, a stereo, and sound-deadening. Not the nicest car to daily
