Good deal or not?

HI all. ive been creeping on this forum for some time (was considering buying an evo but funds werent there) but now it seems like i may have the opportunity to buy one. Its pretty slim pickins out here in oklahoma, but i found a 2010 GSR for just under 30k. it has about 13,700 miles on it, and some mods. is this a decent deal? the link is attached. any input, preferably what a "good deal" would be, would be helpful. thanks in advance.

From the looks of it, its rocking cobb hardpipe kit (LICP + UICP) with the cobb intake on it as well as the AMS IC. It looks in good shape, i'd test drive it and see but has a bit too many miles for that price. If they drop the price about 2k (28 max) I would say its a good deal. I am just saying that because it will save some money for you as you will be getting those mods if you are going to get modded anyhow.

Its not a bad deal but its not the greatest either. Like T6 said it has some mods plus it has the Sight and Sound Package ($2000) on it too.

Ask for a list of aftermarket parts that are on the car. Also ask if it was tuned or not. Look at the dyno sheet if they have it. It looks like someone bought the car and can't afford it so they are selling it.

As for the price, it's not the best deal, but definitely worth looking into.

I would venture to gues that since a bmw dealership is seling it, the previous owner traded that evo in for an m3 most likely, but maybe i am wrong. If i am right tho, that car would be in great condition, tuned and moded tastefully.

For 6k more you can get a brand new one with the SS package. Up to you though, it looks clean
