Is this evo 9 worth it ?

I found an Evo 9 MR with 47k and i got the seller down to 24500 is it worth it, i will be going to look on it if my loan is approved.

The only thing on it is an exhaust and coilers, only had 2 owners, is 24500 too high ?

ask him to make a video walk around of the car, a drive in and a drive by. the guy that sold me my evo did that and I was happy he did it. I found that it was a helpful tool with my decision into flying to Minneapolis, and confident in driving it home. But, when you get a chance to drive it, test the clutch. that's the only thing I didn't test because I was excited... 8 hours into the drive home, the clutch started to slip :P Also, bring a magnet

I'm sorry but with that sort of a description, no one will be able to tell you if they think it is worth it.

Ad without pics

2006 EVO IX (9) ...MR - RS SERIES 6 SPEED , 47K This car is the real deal ,2nd owner car the first owner was a 55 yr old man , and then me 53 yo.

It is UNMOLESTED by kids. Original with the exception of very good coil overs and exhaust. NO crazy gauges, timers,turbos inktakes or headers.... The thing runs like BRAND new tight tight tight.
Straight as a arrow in and out.

If you want a 100% solid car this is it .If you want one to build from a original platform this is it.

If you want to go for a ride , or low ball to some stupid number this is not it .

Look around to find pristine 06 evo 9 MR -RS with 47 k .............. then email me if you are interested 25900.00 OBO
Thanks

Looks like it's got an intake, uicp, and a bushur heat shield, and a carbon fiber front lip.

Car looks clean, I'm also confused about the MR-RS nomenclature.

I second the recommendation about having the owner make a video for you.
