try to look for an 05 or 06 evo...i suggest the evo IX...u can probably find one with 15 to 20k miles for like 26 to 28 and it well be worth every penny!

Seems you're not inclined to the Evo's core interest since you're considering a car of such a different class.. You'll be disapointed by the trim, the luxury and the ride, amongst many others, of the Evo compared to the IS250...

It depends if you want to just cruise around or get around.Of course my choice would be an EVO.You can find some good deals on used EVO's.Just look for the obvious signs of prior mods and ask the dealer some questions about the person that traded it in.Good luck!

You might want to drop a big DP and get decent monthly payments. That's the best suggestion.


As for the 250, totally different class. I would put it next to a G35, before an evo.

i'd say stick with the corolla and save your money...there's no way you can afford an evo and eat 3 square meals a day...get a civic
