'05 Evo in tacoma

sorry to ask for help again, but can someone in tacoma check out this evo for me? i will actually be in washington, north of seattle, on monday. if you could like test drive it and give it a once over to make sure everything looks, runs, and sounds good. i would like someone knowledgeable to check it out please. if everything looks good, i will cancel my flight tickets and instead be driving up from oklahoma city to trade in my current vehicle.

i really hope this is the right one. i want to get an evo bad, but the selection here where im currently stationed is slim to none.

oh yeah, i'll buy a case of for anyone that's willing to help! as long as you're of age haha!

I might leave with it if I test drive it..

It has a cold air intake? Huh, talk about stealth, it looks exactly like stock! And leather seats?


:edit: ^ beat me to it.

Looks like they got their pictures fixed finally, their photobucket had no bandwidth for awhile.

Without looking at it, I can say that the car is probably no good based off of the type of dealership its sitting at, but who knows.

salvage title, but personally have seen the car. runs perfect. looks great.

btw. shaved lip means they blended the lip and bumper together. so basically its one piece... no aftermarket lips possible on here unless you get a new bumper or splitter. BUT like someone has already said, this description is NOT to this car.

i have been there and test drove it, its a good looking evo but when i first was there is was being repaired cause the car was broken into. The engine runs really smooth, and seems to be in good running condition. The Defuser is new on it they were getting that ready for the car when i was there. The lot is def sketch they have a lot of evos they are repairing there, but i would say this is by far the best evo on the lot. Just want to let you know it is not a MR like they say though. Probably can get it for a little cheaper too.

yeah. IMO when it comes to cars, what you pay is what you get. if your budget is under 20k, you will always see a catch like it being a salvage car, sketchy CL ad, etc etc....

i would pay a little more to get a nicer EVO. but thats just me.
