good luck. hope you like it. the only thing is that on the rear bumper there is a scuff on the driver side corner. that was the only "major" thing i noticed. its really not that bad tho...interior was pretty good. each rim had like one tiny thing wrong with it. no bad curb rash tho...i am just a picky ***** haha. but nothign major with that car. if you are willing to pay 25470 for that car, it is definitely worth it with the milage and all the options. just wasnt willing to put out that kinda cash right now. plus i wanted GG. good luck. let me know what happens

I really appreciate the heads up. I will definitely look up this scuff as I am kinda **** myself. I ran the VIN on it and it has ZERO warranty work done to it so that makes me happy as every EVO I came across in the last month has had something in warranty claims. I am mainly looking out for tranny issues. I am a bit older so I really like the SSL package and I love silver. I have gone back and forth on the price and I am only about $500 bux off what you were quoted. Honestly I am ok with 25,500 so thats really my goal to get them to and anymore will be a bonus. I have a certified check on hand so thats my bargaining tool as I don't need to deal with their finance department. I am gonna take a loss on my STi but its ok since I only had it for a little over a year and I financed it straight out. I am really looking forward to owning an EVO IX as the X still has yet to grow on me and really this one will be a keeper until the next EVO or STi is released sometime in 2010 or 2011. I already have a list of mods(mainly cosmetic and suspension/wheels) and I can't wait. Congrats again on your car and I will throw up a thread myself when I pick up mine next week.

cool cool, yea i mean 25470 really isnt a bad deal for that car at all. the miles are really low, and it is pretty clean other than a few minor details. hope you love the car. it did drive very nicely. i think you will like it. good luck with it.

my plans are two big steps at once.

Step 1: Intake, Exhaust, Fuel Pump, Boost Controller, IC pipes, Cams, and a tune.

Step 2: Build Trans/transfer case, clutch, big turbo/all supporting mods

visual mods probably mixed in between

When I bought my X, the dealership told me that most of their customers who buy EVOs are in that age range. I was shocked as hell when they told me.
