Hey I just bought a 2005 Evo VIII. Its my first Evo, i bought it for 19,975. Its got 31k miles on it. The car is 100% stock which is what i was really looking for. The paint is in good shape except for a few rock chips on the hood.

Clean ride. good price. rock chips on front bumper/hood are normal.

thanks everyone. i love the color too that was one of the biggest buying points for me. i plan on putting on a tbe, intercooler piping, boost guage, turbo timer, ebc, and getting it tuned. im sure im forgetting a few things but thats all i can think of at the moment. the exhaust and intake have to be post-poned for the time being just because of the money issue at the moment so those will most likely be done end of next winter or so just so i can get a little more money back into the bank. but the turbo timer boost guage and tune will hopefully be done in a few months. jw what people are getting for gas mileage im getting around 22 in city wondering if that is normal?

don't waste your money on a turbo timer, just drive it easy before you shut it off.
