Hope I didn't pull a newb and post up in wrong forum, but trying to figure out if anyone knows who used to ownt he Evo I bought today, or if anyone knows anything about it.

2005, Yellow, "Had" Greddy reflective stickers on back side glass... had black momo stickers on fender skirts, powered by greddy and Evolution on Hood. Car is from Indianapolis and was traded in at Ray Skillman Kia on Shadeland Ave.

Just trying to see if any of the locals know about it or if the person who used to own its on here.

Appreciate any help and Love the forums... tons of knowledge base on here.

Thanks in Advance

I thought you were asking about an EVO 1 (I), Its what it looked like to me in your topic

Pics would probably help people recognize it.

 

pics would help alot

 

Well, I had some pics but need to get them from office tomorrow when I get there... Figured a pretty plain Yellow 8 with 2 stickers on the hood and side skirts someone would know it or not hehe. I mean, without the stickers it looks like any other stock 8. I'll slap em on here tomorrow at work and hopefully someone can tell me about the thing so I can see what if anything besides exhaust, stickers and TT has been done.

Thanks Guys

 

Here is a picture...

 

this wouldve been a helpful post before you bought the car(facepalm) whats the info....mods... milage. price. ect... did u even check the carfax?

 

You might want to try your regional forum too.

 

..

 

Picture links to the ad... shows alot of the molestation or mods depending on your view. price, etc is all there.

 

Thanks man.... thought about linking that last night but figured they would take the ad down from Skillman and didn't want a dead picture sitting on here.

HAHA

 

Mods seem pretty basic in my opinion. A bad tune on any engine could make it go boom, though. 380 at the wheels sounds really high for the mods listed. Especially at a claimed 20psi.

And yes, these are the things you ask before you buy.

 

As far as mods or molestation... not sure what all is done thats why I came here to see if anyone knows the car. I came from a 1g dsm background and as far as I can tell this thing just had a lot of stickers and crap on it, no "Real" mods were done in the gofast department to my knowledge but I could be mistaken.

 

Well, either way, after I bought or not, would be good to get some info on it. I had a very short time frame on the purchase there was literally another man standing there with cash if I dropped off the deal. I did run the carfax it was clean, I did the basic checks under the hood coming from a 1g back ground I can spot most mods. I very seriously doubt this car lays down any where near 380 hp. Thats prolly some bull**** the guy trading in laid ont he sales manager to make the car look totally awesome.

 

so dealer got asking price? since they staged a second person interested to close the deal? (seen it done before at dealerships, alot of theater goes on there)

 

I never said dealer got asking price... if you are asking if I paid what was listed I did not. The second gentleman came along after price was negotiated down on it. I checked my blue book values and it was showing 21500 for the car and miles so what I paid was about 5.5k less than that taxes included so I felt it was a good deal either way. I can guarantee that car doesn't have half the **** listed. If it does I will be surprised.... Runs and drives great IMO
