umm, color is silver and im getting quite a good deal over there. how this is relevant i dont know but i see you are from michigan and i cant go there to buy a car. plus i dont want one on the lot. im guaranteed 2-3 miles on mine and im getting a call the second its off the truck. just want to know how timely they have been getting them to the lots when they say 1-2 weeks.

I was there Saturday and they had 2 Evos there - Red and Black. I didn't buy from them cuz both Evos didn't have the CF wing so I went to Max Madsen in Aurora and bought my Rally Red Evo there. MSRP baby! It was just a baby when I got it! 22 miles! Been driving mine since!

Lemme see...

...smoked a M3 in first...

...killed a Corvette in third...

...smothered an SRT-4 in first...

...the kills just keep coming...

why did your car have so many miles on it. should only have between 4-8 miles on it.

I wondered about the mileage too, but 22 miles isn't anything serious. If it had like 100 miles I'd be somewhat skeptical, but nonetheless the car runs great. Plus, I figured the Evo that I got was probably ordered from another dealer so they had to drive it out there or something. I'm not complaining though. I have my Evo and that is what matters to me at all right now.

my car was brought in from across the country. they gave me a maximum delivery time of 1 month and it only took 2 weeks.

My car had 8 K on it when I got it. The guys went to put a full tank of gas in it for me.
