I have been used 'car shopping' for the past few weeks, and have narrowed my car choices down to a select few (350z, G35, Evo). The 350z has great handling, looks, and luxury, but lacks room. The G35 has the needed room, but loses some of that sporty feel I want. The Evo is the best of both worlds I suppose; it has more than enough room, but also has more power than I will know what to do with, the only problem is I can't find ANY dealers in my area!

We have a Mitsubishi dealership maybe twenty minutes from where I live, but they only sale NEW Evos. Anyone live in the area and know where I could go to look at USED Evos? I am looking to spend around the $25,000 range. I have searched AutoTrader/CARS.com and have only found Evo's 150+ miles away from my house...

Also, if anyone has made the switch from a 350z/G35 to an Evo (or vice versa) I would like to hear why, and if anyone would like to comment about the Evo's reliability I would appreciate it. I have searched some and have come to the conclusion it isn't going to compare to my Toyota I drive now, but for a DSM it is awesome. Can I expect to drive this car trouble-free for 3-5 years (10-15k miles a year)? I realize that's a pretty basic question, but any input would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Gary

 

This is a long thread on the 350z to Evo topic:

Good luck finding a used Evo real Close. I live in Augusta and had to drive to Atl to get mine. When I lived in Socal.. the beasts were everywhere.
