Looking for my first EVO.

Name is Garrek currently own a fully built STI and I am looking to trade it in for a EVO for a change.

I have been looking for a little while now and its really hard to find one in my area (Spokane WA). Im looking for 2006 model with ok milage, all stock and to spend no more than 22k. I have come across a couple with about 100k miles which is a lot in my opinion. I was wondering if I should even bother looking at them

Here is a listing for example:

Thank you.

106 thousand is no problem, especially if you go over the car with a fine tooth comb before buying.

If they won't let you take it to an independent mechanic and have it inspected, then yeah I would steer clear.

Also, you might have to travel to get the right deal.

I found this one but its a 03. Any input on this one? Looks really clean and STOCK for a 2003 with 70k miles. If I do go look at it what do you think I should offer them price wise?
