Not sure where to post

Hi I finally have enough to afford an evo 9, and I found a really solid looking one with low mileage, but I’m wondering if you guys think it’s too good to be true.


The dealer has provided a clean carfax with detailed pictures.

Unfortunately I’m thousands of miles away so I can’t just go take a look at it.

so my question is, do you guys think it looks clean enough to take the flight? I REALLY want one but I don’t wanna be dissapointed to find a bad car when I land there

Actually looks pretty darn nice & low miles (under 60K). It certainly appears like a real MR EvO.

If you could get a pre-buy inspection done that would be great. Checking things like engine compression & a leak down test might give you an idea to the engines health

Its looks very stock but wonder what mods were done & maybe removed? @Cvrlos22

He showed me pics of the engine bay... everything looked original. Unfortunately they could not approve a loan for me, so i have to keep shopping around.

Can't see the vehicle history report itself, so I just checked VIN with an alternative. Vehicle records seem clean.
