I was doing the same thing when looking for mine dude. I waited patiently for the perfect Evo. I think I searched for nearly 2 years until i ended up with the one i have now. During those 2 years there were a couple times where I almost pulled the trigger on a 8, two different 9's, and a X; but something told me there was a better Evo out there. Plus I really wanted a Evo 9. Ultimately I ended up with a Tarmac Black Evo 9 SE that was a one owner (a 40 yeard old guy owned it), bone stock (even the tires were original), only had 40,000 miles, and was never tracked. Needless to say I found the perfect car. Best of luck to you man. I know you'll find one

I'm not the biggest fan of California, and you just added another reason to my list

No problem! To be honest, putting coilovers on my last car is what got me into doing my own work. It's one of those mods that makes a big difference in the way the car behaves, and helps build some confidence in doing things for yourself.
