Hard time finding evo 8's let alone an evo.
 

I live in utah and im in a serious hunt for an EVO 8. all the ones here are either at over 100k or have poorly maintained engines and low end poorly installed mods. Any tips on where i could find a decent stock 8?

search on here...your probably going to have to take a drive since you know what you want good luck

Yeah, forget local.

Plan to fly to California then drive back over a few days. Should be a helluva experience.

Gotta keep looking. Nothing you're saying is out of the ordinary per se. You're buying a used car, that was in high demand and had a limited run.

lots of great evos here {thumbup}

My friend is selling a very nice white Evo 8 here in NJ...

See a good amount here in Nor Cal as well. :)

Ya forget local. I picked mine up local by luck only 20 minutes away. Never seen the car before and since then I have only met one local owner and that was just last night at a meet, but I suspect he hasn't been around long as his tags were still from illinois. I don't think its the fact people don't own them around here but the fact they aren't for sale or driven alot. Prob the same in ur area.

Hey,

I know this isn't the right forum/spot - but I'll be posting this up shortly in the marketplace here. I'm the original owner, moderate mods all done by Dynocomp in town.

i drove to Minnesota from IL to pickup my evo. if it's the right car, the drive shouldn't matter. i rented a ford focus for the day (awesome gas mileage) and took a road trip to pick her up. used nearly half a roll of blue painters tape and drove her back. when you find the right car you'll know and don't settle for someone else's mess.

I'd get one in SoCal. Car will at least not have rust! There are a lot of 8's and 9's here. I've seen some pics of Evos from the mid west and they really take a beating on the underside.

plenty of good evos on this form just take alook at the for sale section

My car has been driven in winter all it's life and the underside isn't bad when you look at it. It's more about how many bolts you can break off of the car because it was seized that matters most.... Sadly, I learned that the hard way... Impact guns are your friends. :D

I have an VIII. That being said go buy a IX.

like ferno said, be prepared to travel all over the US for a decent evo 8. If you want something specific as for miles/color/gsr or RS just be ready to scower state to state.
