Arrow This EVO 9

I've been looking around a lot for an evo and none quite compare to this one. I'm about ready to buy it but I want some opinions. Also I saw a car just like this bone stock with 66k miles for 3k less, wow?
anyways... here's the linkhttp://www.chicagomotorcars.com/web/...Evolution%20IX

make sure you click the "description" for list of upgrades etc..

Most people try and buy bone stock because the car is less likely to have been beat on and have less wear on all the components

be careful

The only way I would buy that car is if you were buying it from the person that owned it when all those mods were done to it. Talking with them will give you a good sense on if they are a total douche and you can't believe them or if there is a chance they are straight up. I bought a car that was modified to hilt and taken brought back to stock. I still decided to buy it since he was putting it back to stock and bought parts of my own to put on it since he was putting it back together.

cause it was stripped out to be a track only car and they needed to put rear seats in it to sell it. Evo 8 rear seats are much cheaper and easier to find so that is what they put in it.

I'm sure that car has been beat on, driven HARD and put up wet many times. But it might have been done right, you never know. Just the risk you take.
