How much did you pay for your Evo?

Former & current Evo owners share what you paid and when. I feel like I've seen similar thread(s) but couldn't find one after searching. Anyhow, just trying to get an idea of what you paid for your Evo and when you bought it. I have noticed the pricing has changed over the last few years and has increased. I am currently looking around for another Evo X, something I can enjoy with my kids more now that they are older and hold on to it.

When I got my first Evo in 2011 I bought a 2008 GSR Apex Silver just under 30k miles with some mods for about $23k.
In 2014 I bought a 2008 GSR in Graphite Grey modded with around 70k miles for about $22k.
In 2018 I bought a 2008 GSR again in Apex Silver modded with around 140k miles for about $18k.

It is a blast to drive. My daily is a 5sp so it's a nice refresher. I also haven't driven a gsr so I can't really compare. But I will say folks who say it aint a real evo have either never driven an evo or never driven an x. I did just put brand new re71rs tires on it and it feels so different already vs. the worn out indy firehawks.

I bought my '14 MR in 2018 with 18k miles for $29k with fees and shipping, cross-country and sight unseen lol. The paint and bodywork was a lot rougher than I expected, but the mechanical stuff and drivetrain was pretty immaculate.

Not a bad deal considering the low miles and I dislike paint and bodywork surprises.

I panicked a ton in the beginning, because I thought I got screwed, but now that it's been almost 5 years since then, the paint hasn't really gotten worse, and I didn't really mind it as much anymore. Also took a huge edge off of driving the car to school, through winters, and so on.

Just a hair over 28k miles now.

I am in Orlando. About 20 mins away from where MOM will be held. Unfortunately I will be on vacation at that time out of state. If that changes then I plan to go to MOM and we can meet up for sure.
