Hey everyone I'm new on the forum I've found an 03 Evo With about 40xxx miles on it the dealership is asking about 18k for it. Would you consider this a fair price? It looks prett well stock from what little I know about these beauties. heres the url feedback would be greatly appreciated! thanks http://mobile.carsforsale.com/photos.aspx?vid=177575431

 

if it was bone stock i would say yes, but 18K is still reasonable

 

Ever consider a (properly) modded Evo..?

In the NW, too! English Racing did basically everything to it, it's very well put together.

I could be interested. the only reason I would want it stock is so that I can get a feel for how the car drives and what it's capable of before I start dumping money into it. I don't have cash in hand lol and I don't want to finance anything more that 20k

 

Oh yeah that's understandable....luckily these cars aren't the hardest to learn on, my car is (I think) a good balance so it's not hard to drive, but it's not slow! My old Evo RS was around 450 whp and that was a tad overwhelming for the street in some cases. But 350'ish WHP in these cars is quite nice, you can use it on the road pretty well! Feel free to PM me if you wanna take a closer look, it'll save you the $$ you'll use for mods later!

 

I'd say both are decently priced...Trevor's MR is tempting though. English does good work, they've done all the work on my RS. Guess it comes down to what you plan on doing to the car as well, you want to keep it stock or mod it?

 

I really don't want to do much to it as far as power mods. Maybe lower it possibly an after market exhaust system to make it a lil louder haha
