Who's EVO is this?

My boyfriend is evo shopping and we found this one at the don herring dealership in Irving. Saw the sticker for NTEC and figured I'd see if the owner is on here and could tell us more about the car!

Guy in the pic is the sales person

couple of observations:
1) headlight has be modded
2) looks like the front bumper has been removed b4. might have had an aftermarket ic and now its removed.
3) wheels are gsr se wheels and not gsr ssl.

Front bumper needs to be removed in order to remove the headlights so don't get too far ahead of yourself until we know actual details on the car.

That is Chris' old car, he treated it right and took care of it as far as I can recall. I don't think that it has ever been tracked, maybe a street race or two though. I think that it would be a good car to take a chance on. I was up there on Tuesday and it looks really nice.

I think that this is it: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/6758148-post18.html

Yup that's chris's old Evo, he took care of it. No big mods just exhaust, intake and tune. I think he autocrossed it acouple of times. If u don't buy it my friEnd is going up there this weekend to trade in his car for it.

Good to know guys. Thanks. I actually found Chris earlier before I posted this and sent him a message to see if it was his or not.

I don't think my bf is looking to buy right away so your friend is probably ok. He's going to go look at a yellow EVO in Lawton, OK on Saturday.

He's gotta see what financing he can get, and what he might get for his trade in (2006 Cobalt SS/SC) Said he might wait until tax time so he has a bigger down payment to put down.

Thanks for all the info though!

Lawton = gonna be ragged to hell. It's a military base town and honestly soldiers tend to not take care of their cars and abuse them.

Whatever he ends up doing, make sure you guys make it out to the NTEC meets after he has his Evo. The more the merrier!

I have probably seen you around and just not noticed. I live near O'Connor & 183...so not too far from you guys! If you can see my signature, I have a small picture of my car there. Basically: Blue Evo X with a carbon fiber vortex generator.

Nah. I know a lot more military people with blown motors than IT people

As well, Lawton is in poorsville Oklahoma with no real support for Evos and **** gas. Trust me, 90% of Evos there are abused. Ask Kevin
