Got a new EVO.

Well its an 03 but new to me. I sold my previous white EVO to go on tour with my friends band. After I got back, I resumed my job and started looking for one. I found an EVO on Ebay, and went to check it out. It was a theft recovery vehicle, and they got there hands on it with the interrior completely stripped. They started putting it back together, and lost intrest. I made an EXTREMELY resonable offer, and ended up buying it after some negotiation. I ended up paying right around 10,000 for it, and considering what it needs to be completed, Id say i got a deal.

Its keyed all the way around the car. every panel except the front and rear bumper. Though it has no body damage. My family also owns a body shop so this will be taken care of easily. I have the pictures from the auction, so you can see what its missing.







All it needs is an airbag, front half of the center consle, spoiler, new seats, (it has es lancer seats in it ) and the window switches in the rear door. Thats it.

So I'm extremely happy to be back with a new EVO.

D*mn. Awesome deal.

OT but how do you know where police auctions are held? Is there a website that tells you when they have them?
