im really diggin the look of this 8

I am in the market for an EVO but the 9 is slightly out of reach, looking to sell my boosted 06 civic SI and get the 8

what am i seeing cosmetically on this 8 as far as JDM bumpers, or diff lights ect. Obviously it has aftermarket wheels and a drop...

This one has crazy high miles so i would never consider the car especially not for that price... but its close to me so maybe i could go drive it and get a feel for the car.

Stock bumpers, stock lights. Only body mod I see is the Vortex Gen. on the roof.

IC is not stock.

But tell you what I do see. A previous owner that didnt know what/how to mod.

1. VTA DV - thats a no-no
2. Tein Springs - no-no

Crazy high miles? I have 92k on my car. 61k was so 1 year ago

I personally would stay away from dealers (even Mitsu dealers). The never understand the car, often misrepresent it, and usually screw up what is on it.

I would search the for sale ads here.

I have driven my Evo up and down the East Coast, Mid-west, and soon the North. They are great cars when you take care of them.

I paid 20,600 for my 06 IX. That's WAY WAY WAY too high of a price and all the part's on it are junk.
