If you look around you can find low mileage evos. I have 61k and the only thing I have had to replace was a clutch.

nope just people drive them alot and also the more miles it has the cheaper it can go. There are plenty of evos way under that amount for sale right now. If your so worried about it drop a fully built long block in there and problem solved LOL.

*edit* you should do a fluid change and timing belt headgasket, waterpump and possible clutch job to it to ensure everything is ok. Just putting that out there LOL

Possibly bad maintenance from the prior owner(s).

A taken-care of Evo does not have many problems.
