Just bought my first Evo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

after all the cars i have had, i finally get into an Evo. i have wanted one for awhile, but this one was WAY overpriced. so it sat on the dealers lot for 6-7 months. finally i go back to see if they have decided to let the price drop, and they did!!!!!

got it for $24500. i think its a pretty good deal, considering its in flawless shape!!! there is 1 scuff mark on the lip, and 1 little ding in the hood. other than that, its pretty much perfect. it has the leather, sunroof, and hid's as well! its an 05 with 27k miles on it!




it had the lowering springs on it already, but i knew who the old owner was, so he gave me all the extra parts he had. came with an intake as well as a lightened flywheel and new clutch.

i am so stoked on the purchase! i have a few ideas for it to gain a little nut, but it wont be like my other car.
plans thus far-
TBE- not sure on brand. want quiet, but power as well
hks 264 or s1 cams
fmic upgrade
walbro
injectors
flash
put on ro_ja wheels off my old car

and then just drive it as my DD!
that should be enough modding to get me into high 11's like it did to a buddies EVO. and if i race someone, and they beat me, then ill go home and get my 97 240sx with a 2jz in it!!!!!


what you guys think of the new baby?

Quiet but power, go with Cobb's TBE. You also may want to consider a MBC to your mod list.

+1 on the 240 pics
Grats on the purchase man. I've been looking for a decent deal around town to trade my car in now that I have some credit to back me up but everyone dealer still wants 29-33k for a used 03 Used Evo's in this town are sky rocketing in price because no one will buy the X's. I've only seen 1 X driven on the street in Vegas and I believe it was a Robi spec one too. The EB's are so pretty in the sun

Such a beautiful car. The way the paint shines in the light is so gorgeous. Great choice on the car. Hopefully soon enough I'll have my own just like this one

So pretty, one last thing to add to your mod list...replace altezza with VII, IX or MR tail lights.
