Hey everyone tell me what you think about this evo. Do you think miles were pulled back on it. Im kind of suspicious just because it's an 03 with hardly any miles on it.

16000 miles and for $23,000 ? It looks suspicious to me man.. Then on the other hand, I wouldn't really buy an Evo second hand because you'll never know what the previous owner has done to it. Even if they babied it like crazy, you'd never know what small things happen.

But if you look past that, it does seem like a good deal for this kind of evo. It's your decision, but if I were you, I'd buy a IX.

It's not suspicious. My '03 only has 7500 miles on it and if I were to sell it, that'd be around what I'd look for.

If you were really concerned, then do a carfax on it. You would never know, maybe the owner barely drove the car. Just dig deeper into your pockets and get an 05 or 06.

The thing is that 05 and 06 are hard to find around unless they are new.That's too expensive. There is also no one selling one around my area they are all far.

Looks legit to me. A lot of people keep thier evo's with relatively low miles.

As far as mileage I can tell you mine with 29k is still valued at $23,900 Kelly Blue Book Value and it's an 03. So sounds like a good deal it it's not been ragged on.

My 04 has only 16k on it. Unfortunately you can never tell if the car is "good" or "bad" until you buy it.

It's just my personal preference, I wouldn't buy an evo second hand.. I don't know why, I just don't like the feeling of being a second owner.
