Hello guys, well after a long debate over the 350z, and evo. I finally decide on test drive on both vihecles. The Evo is the Winner.
Got it yesterday...already put 250 miles in it..and my brother have been trying to pry me out from the recaro since.
washed, waxed..and went for a lil photo taking.
PS: it has ZERO mods 55k..the only thing after market in the car is 1 piece of vac line that has been t'd off for a boost guage. ( ofcourse I didn't get the boost guage, any body has a nice one for sale?). hope u guys like it. C

$19,500. it got some miles in it 55k to be exact. but paint is perfect ( minor rock chips on the bumper but no sign of paint or body work carfax came back clean), no peeling on the wing. no funny noises..just a lil whine on the 1st gear ( which is very weak or I still have to get used to driving the EVO ( turbo 240sx and IS300 is my previous ride)
the previous owner was a smoker and left me tons of ashes in the car..vacumed it today and will shampoo the interior next week to rid the smoker smell.
the clutch is holding up great not sure if its stock or after market, but its still holding up great and thats all that matters for now.
here's another one.

No performance is my #1 priority. but black housing headlights, red tails, and front lip will be done for sure...
but Ic pipings, exhaust, and reflash will be done before anything else ( well i say before anything else..but I'm paint the grill and cleaning the FMIC today. C
