I'm looking for a unicorn, can you help me?
there are unicorns out there... it will take patience on your part and timing when someone decides to sell theirs. Lots of people that sell them eventually grow out of them or they just become garage queens and no longer want them just sitting around and others sell them for financial reasons due to changes in their lives...
again patience is key. Just be ready to pull the trigger when one comes up. The advantage to buying these older Evos with low mileage is that most younger folks cannot afford them because they cannot get loans for them as they are older than 5 years so you have to pay cash.
I will eventually be in the market for another CT9A and will also be looking for a clean one. I think its all about timing and patience... and like other people said... get the color you want.. I've had 3 Evos and was always sure about buying each one. First one I sold as I was buying a house, 2nd one I regretted selling and the X I have now is not what I expected after owning it for a year... so I am ready for another CT9A.
Good luck on your search.

Really? It seems like it's always overseas buyers. But that just sounds odd to me though. Why turn down $90k if they sold one a couple years back for $50k? That's almost triple the original sticker price and an even bigger return than before. Is there really a market out there where people are willing to pay $100k for an untitled 10 year-old Evo?

BAHAHAHAA
LOL, there was a similar one on here a few months ago "bone stock VIRGIN" except for cams, exhaust, injectors, fuel pump, tune...LOL
Any idiot can kill a clutch in an Evo in very short order. That wouldn't bother me.
