Checking out evos, ran into a rusty one.
Checking out evos, ran into a rusty one.
So I'm currently in the market for an evo 9 and I've been checking out some evos around my area/ looking at ads, very typical stuff and I ran across this ad on autotrader.
Used Apex Silver 2006 with only 27,032 miles for $26,888. So I thought it might be worth a look, though 26,888 did sound a bit high when compared to the evo worth mega thread. It was looking good till I saw this pic
Carfax says that its was sold in Sac, and made it's way down to the Bay Area but seriously what would cause that kind of rust? I'm checking the car a few others out later this week and I'm hoping its just the cover but I doubt it. Have any of you guys seen this before?

That is what you'd expect on the exhaust manifold heatshield when there is a gaping hole in the hood for venting hot air. When it rains/washing car, that is the result. Mine is rusty as well although not as bad.

yea, unfortunately it was sold and i believe that it jacked up the price because it was a SSL. im going to look at another one today but i have suspicions of a repaint. I've searched but does anyone remember all the vin locations from the top of their head or any other used car tips? i could use them.
