been out of contact for a while. I'm not even going to try and get caught up on the multipal pages I've missed. just dropping in to let ya'll know that baby boy Lincoln Cantor was born this morning @ 11:17am, tipping the scales @ 8.5lbs and measuring 21". Mom and baby are doing fine... daddy is tired from being up since sometime around 6am monday 
still planning to make the holbert this weekend, atleast one day if I can.

As the car sits anything over $16k would a great price for you. If you took the car back to or closer to stock you would hope to get $13-15k plus whatever you can get out of your ohlins, wheels, etc.
If your content with the VIII, don't do it unless he is seriosly overpaying you. If your looking for an excuse to get into a X, sell it!!!

Glad to hear everyone is doing well.Congrats homie!
On another note...what would you guys be willing to pay for my car if you were looking for an Evo. In all seriousness. You guys know my car, so I'd like to hear some opinions. A friend of mine said someone was interested, and if the offer is right, I may just sell it!

You may want to think about cleaning up that interior before he looks at it...
You want me to hit it with some Ajax?

chu, i'll give you $15500 including the ohlins.
what color and options do you want in your X? it would be interesting to see what you'd do with one.
i got to say, modding the car is the fun part. i wouldn't want to buy something like jim's car or the sandbox. they're fast but what else is there to do? taking it from 275hp at the crank to 5XX at the wheels is the joy.

thanks everyone!
Chu, I think you're crazy to sell unless you are either getting overpaid for the car, I mean really overpaid, or you know exactly what you want to get after this.
still though, I think it will be hard to find another car that can do what the ct9a does. I've thrown the idea around quite a bit in the last 6 years of ownership and it always comes back to the same thing... I don't think there is another car out there, for the money, that has the same level of performance/proven realiability/fun factor or versatility as an EVO VIII/IX.

you have the above and then you have people like pete tiebout standing in my driveway saying "nothing goes around a corner faster than a X."
this is just a comment. i am not trying to start a huge debate.
You guys are right, it is really hard to beat these cars for what they are. I really wouldn't know what else to get besides another lower mileage one, or a X. I've tossed the idea over and over, but who knows. I'm sure if I'm overpaid, I would do it. Oddly enough, I'm still putting money into the car. Just installed Ti strut tower braces in the front and rear!
