Sup guys,
I currently drive an s2000, but I'm thinking about selling that and getting an Evo if I can find a deal for one. What sort of things should I watch out for when buying a used evo? Any help would help. Thanks in advance.

 

The best advice i can give is, if one little thing doesnt look right....walkaway. you dont wanna buy someone elses headache

 

Anything specific that tends to go bad on the evos?

 

clutch is number one.. but you can never know what will go next if the person before you beat the car to ****...

 

there isnt a whole lot to check for unless you have a mechanic check it out. but clutch is definitely the first thing. try searching a little bit and you will find out everything.

 

if you get a used car, expect the wear and tear items to be done first. tires, brakes, clutch. other than that it is a solid four banger with a turbo. alot of kids who buy these things complain about the wear and tear stuff and the minor things like paint or something. definately a keeper!

 

I think the most important thing to look for is the clutch. I would highly suggest you find one with most/all service records. Best advice I can really give.

 

yep, wen i bought mine, guy gave me all service record, even the price tag thing on the window that is on the car wen it was brand new

 

well if it is used and you are going through a dealer then i would just take it to a reputable mechanic for an inspection... that prolly would be your best option...
