Evo 6.5 TME's at auction

Evo 6.5 TME's at auction in Japan

Not often to see these every week, let alone two in one day. First car is lower mileage, but very modified. The other is practically bone stock, but with higher mileage.

Will try and update this thread with the hammer price.

Neither car sold last night at auction, seems that sellers are holding out for top dollar

Last week Factory red decal model went thru auction. Being the most desirable combination this car actually did sell despite being a Grade 3/C




Although this example has definitely been somebody's driver. It is cool to see these actual being driven, not being hidden away and traded like currency.

That's a bit over $70k here in the U.S. I'd probably make a poor financial decision and buy one for that if it were 100% clean.

There was an extremely clean red, striped TME here in Canada for $250,000. We're not there yet, but expect a really good red TME to be $100,000 once it's US-legal.

Would be best to hop on one now if at all, prices are only going up. I anticipate prices to double by the time they're state legal


I am setup for storage here in Canada, just an idea.

Friend of mine sent me a link for this TME for sale, thought it was reasonably priced.

For sale at a dealership in Japan, would land for approx. $50,000 CAD

i would consider getting a LHD evo 6 if one were to pop up, they're rare but not impossible to find

You would need to get one out of Europe, looking 60K plus which is 2-3 times more than RHD

RHD is the way to go
