Maybe he likes them more? Because of the color and such.

I have seen evos before, 9's, where people but the blue seats in becuse they were nicer looking.
My friend told me to take the seats from my VIII MR and put them into my IX, but I didnt like the blue, but he said it would look nice.


With 9000 Miles, even if it was built before it had the 1 mile on it, your not going to get a broken down piece of crap even if he beat on it hard.
Its a basically new car..

Price is steep as Ive seen more modified for cheaper.. but eh, do as your please.
Take it for a test drive and see, and if they wont let you, find something else.

well, my guess is they wont let you drive it, being the car it is, and the mods it has.... there insurance probably wont let YOU drive it, but they will let one of there associates drive it... i think for what it has price is pretty good... you can probably talk them down a little but just think of it like this... built engine 10000 that turbo kit... 6000 ems 2000 tuned, intake mani 800, seats short shifter.... WAY over 20000 in mods making almost 600 horse with 9000 miles good price!!

yup!, actually my dad's dealing w/ the guy now. we're trading our 2001 plymouth prowler for it. I think we might get it. so it wont cost me a dime. and he likes the car too.

Yeah letting you test drive a 600whp is a pretty high liability on there part lol that's a lot of power for any car..9000 miles isn't bad but it's all about how well it runs..which I'm sure is fine with that low mileage but you never know how the owner treated it..

lol yeah they will tell you that no matter what (personally if you did buy it I would get that in writing just in case)

Personally (if it were me) I would find an evo as close to stock as possible and build it up myself IMO it's more rewarding that way

agreed! but to build up my engine like this one would cost me SO MUCH. And I don't have that much money to spare. If i were to spend that much money i'd just get a sport/luxury car.

Thats a lot of power for a stock rod evo, don't get me wrong, it can be done and is done all the time. How much boost is it tuned at?

He means that the internals of the engine should be built.

I think it's built but doesn't say. I HOPE for your sake the engine is built with some VERY tough connecting rods. Also that transmission better be built too. That thing will make 900WHP on race gas for sure.

Also consider getting rid of that turbo. A GT42R is extremely laggy. Go with an HTA86 or a RED and it'll be much, much, much funner to drive on the streets.
