Will used EVO's 8 & 9's price drop???

I'm looking into buying a used Evo and right now I'm saving on a down payment so I can get a low monthly payment at the the end. Most of the cars I been looking at are above $20K and some cars have more than 40K miles on them! This is how things usually go, if newer model of a car comes out (Evo X), usually they drop the prices of the previous years so they can start getting rid of the previous stock. When the release of the new Evo comes out, will prices of the EVO 8 and 9's drop? If so, I can spend the rest of the money I save on mods!

It could always go the opposite way.... If the X isnt a "hit" The 8&9 will hold its value even more because they wont be in production.

Exactly. So no one knows for sure what is going to happen.

I don't think the resale of the VIII or IX will be affected.

my car is like new, it has 6500 miles on it, I took care of it really good... im losing lots of money on it... take a look at the website, the site is with the deal....

this is what i was asking,29,500 dollars O/B but i just dropped the price... 6,500 miles on the car
car runs strong like new, lots and lots of money invested, never been in an accident, never been to the dealer, i do oil changes every 1k miles... PRICE DROP 29,500 dollars O/B takes it... lots of money put in to the car all new parts. had the car for 6 month and drove it on the weekends only. WORRENTY IS STILL GOOD, NEVER BEEN TO THE DEALER. AND CAN BE PUT BACK TO STOCK VERY EASILY..

Below you will find every Modification that has been done including the date of install

if your going to buy a new evo and do everything i did to the car, you will spend over 10k dollars on top of the price of the car.... save your money and buy this car.
