To me not really, to put it in perspective i bought my 1 owner stock and clean carfax/autocheck evo 9 se a year ago with 19,500 miles for $20,750 OTD. It's all up to what you think is worth what.

"No photos are currently available for this vehicle." Ok, be sure you analyze every aspect of the car before buying it. This includes checking under the carpet in the trunk of the car. I bought an Evo from a used car lot and they too, said it was clean, like new etc. etc. my VIII had 29K miles for $20,500 out the door...I looked at it and it seemed OK to me at the time, test drove it and it ran fine...Needless to say, a few months later, the transmission dies as well as the clutch.

If you don't know a lot about cars, take a mechanic with you and have them analyze the car for you...Don't get screwed over like I did.

Just my opinion....For what it's worth. Good luck.

that is a crazy price for a 4 years old car, even an Evo. Whether it is low milage or what not these cars were like 33-34 brand new.

Thanks Maryland.
Ive been looking at this car for about 2 days now inside and out. It seems really great. Under the hood is clean nothing leaking. The price does sound pretty high. I will see if i can talk them down.

Congratulations! Not a lot of cars like your left. Don't screw it up and make it into another chopped-up Evo. Good luck.
