So im just going to ask. Ive never moded a car before , ive worked on some but nothing special. This is going to be my life basically. i am buying an evo. price range up to $25,000 cant have more than 20,000 miles, whats the best year to get? besides the newest? what would you guys recommend ive read up alot about the MR's and SSL's , RS's etc... which is going to give me the best bang for my buck? i dont know how much power im goin to put into it. its going to be my daily driver but im goin to race it as well. ive done too much reading , Im not able to comprehend any thing i read anymore. there is just way too much to handle.

 

i can send the links to the ones ive been looking at if someone can help me. use lamens terms please. explain in detail.

Your sn says...06 evo mr, why not get that or at lest get an 05 evo mr


IMO, if i can turn back time...i would get an 06 evo 9 RS

 

2006 evo IX gsr..i agree with philevo

 

06 IX RS, MR, or SE

 

does that have the 6 speed though from what ive read they have problems?

this is a nice one i found. think its a good buy?

 

Get a IX. If you can get an SE, great! If you can get a 5spd "standard" Evo, great! SSL is overrated unless you really need the sunroof. HIDs can be had for alot less using aftermarket kits. About the RS, you might grow out of it pretty quick if you DD it. Lack of power windows and sound-deadening can wear on you. Also inside the trunk looks like cr@p. The wingless look will get you less attention from ricers and cops. Good Luck on your purchase. Any Evo is an awesome car!

 

but on the pictures it doesnt have the fog lights like the rest is that an option?

read that , thats mainly the reason im asking. it about fried me. ive been up all night looking up stuff on this car. i cant take anymore massive amounts of reading.

 

should i get a 2006 Lancer Evolution MR SSL? do they have the SSL on MR's?

 

Ok - what racing are you going to do? How much are you going to race?

Lots of AX, Track, Drag - RS
Some AX, Track, Drag - GSR or MR or RS
Little (mostly daily) - MR or GSR or RS

In the end it doesnt really matter if you are going to mod the car. I wouldnt get the MR if I was going to track or drag a lot. But that OE susp on the street or AX is nice -- but the susp can be changed on the other models.

Just my .02
