good luck man. it looks in good shape. I was a dumba$$ and didn't run a car fax on my evo. it only had 24,000 miles on it. didn't have the original t-case, tranny or engine. and the engine blew up on me after a month! i guess the turbo boost soleniod was broken and was driving at full boost the whole time i was driving the car. I got the engine replaced and a new solenoid, then the t-case crapped out on me a few months after that. Now i'm just waiting for my friend to put the new t-case in... it's been a nightmare. At least the tranny is in good shape though.
Check and see if Oregon has any Lemon Laws too.

 

^damn! What a horrible story, and an asshat that sold it to you!

 

That is weak, you bought it from a private seller? You should have been covered by Lemon Laws....?

 

Perrin 3" DP's are on sale! I just got one myself!

 

man the set backs continue.....So for some reason i was checking to see if the for sale ad on CL was there for the GG EVO i will be taking a look at in portland. Guess what the ad gets deleted. So i go on Autotrader to see if the car is on there and low and behold the car is on autotrader.....BUT for an awesome higher price. I spoke to Greg who works in the portland area that quoted me the car for 22,500 and now i see the car selling at their edmonds location for 24,495....22,500 is my range....damn it wtf /wrist....i'm gonna call them in the morning and try and sort this out...

 

i bought it from a dealer while i lived in utah... and they have an "as is" law... since the window sticker said "as is - no warranty" there was nothing i could do about it...
I was utterly pissed about it all... I even talked to the attorney on base, but according to utah law, i couldnt do anything... those shady gypsy dealers thrive in utah... and some even disguise themselves as certified dealers.
Even when the motor blew up, i was still glad i had an evo lol i knew i'd get it fixed eventually. i fell in love with them ever since the VIII was introduced to american soil. I'm a mitsu guy at heart, this is my 4th mitsu lol

 

LOL @ asshat... that's a new one to me

 

^you lived in Utah too long! Haha, j/k! That is a classic, though, but it has been around for a while.

You know how to tell a gypsy dealer in disguise? Whether they try to give you a dog with your car sale!

 

This sucks-spending time notifying my banks/credit cards about someone stealing my accts. I hate thieves!

 

^
that sucks! i hope everything for yah gets sorted out!

oh and sorry guys more setbacks the car was sold....back to the drawing board...if you guys know anyone selling their 2006 evo 9 GG MR or GG SE or WW MR or SE as well hit me up! ....sigh...

 

^bah! It never ends!

Even worse, Samy, you now have to worry about identity theft/credit for years to come. My wife's car was broken into 5+ years ago and we still get weird *** stuff that pops on her credit. 3 years afterwards someone got a fuggin' cell phone in her name but going to an address in Renton. For whatever reason the cell company thought that was okay to send all billing to a different address for 4 months until they came looking for us to pay the billing...

 

So on my way off base today, I noticed some construction going on at the base gas station, wondering if it's going to be for E85 so I just checked online and well came across this this;

 

Yeah, Utah is pretty sheltered to the rest of the US lol I'll get even more behind now since I'm way out in Italy... You guys will have to catch me back up when i come visit this summer lol
And I knew something seemed a little off when they were advertising free pet neutering with every car purchase!!!

 

^haha! And of course that gypsy reference was a throwback of sorts to the movie "******."

BTW - screw you guys up in Whidbey, and over there in Bummertown!!!

 

^^ gypos are always throwing dogs in on deals, along with mootie gold.
