i dont know if you got it shipped to you if you buy it online i would also suggest ebay, and if not try a trustworthy dealership =D my two cents

 

I bought my car sight unseen from an Army seargent at Fort Leonardwood. He was very honest and I have had 0 issues out of the car for a little over a year.

 

I picked up my 06 IX for 20, 600 with 33k on it...he just wanted it gone

 

The first link you posted the one I would go for. Go look at the car and test drive it if possible. But that car is gorgeous and looks unmollested.

 

i dono how i would feel about buying a evo online. little scary my opinion i would just look in your state and the states around. a lil driving never hurt anyone

 

I drove to Orlando, FL to get mine. The car was bone stock with 10,800. I have the factory waranty(60,000 bumper to bumper). I never test drove it. I talked with them for a week about the car and had him tell me everything about it. I drove down there, signed the papers and drove it home and have no regrets. If it had had more miles and it was a private sale instead of a Mitsubishi dealership I would have definitely test drove it. Maybe I should have test driven mine first but so far I'm completely happy with the car. I have worked on Evo's before and know what to look for when driving one.

 

Im buying my first evo for no more then 19k mileage doesnt matter no matter what ill change the oil on it 3 times before i even get the tag for it an the timing belt,tensioners,belts... i can all do myself. hobbies die hard. clutch job isnt something id look fwd to.
