I don't have any info, but I will make a recommendation if you are looking to buy this car.
First, Carfax.
Next, and most important, take the car to an independent mechanic, go to a mechanic that specializes in Evo's if you can. Have them do a full once over (complete with highway test drive), check the brakes and make sure the discs are good! Have them document any deficiencies, make the dealer fix/replace any broke, loose or damaged parts.
Next, make them do ALL the services (esp. 60K mile), and make sure they actually do them, and get documentation.
Replace Air Filter
Replace Iridium Spark Plugs
Replace Belts
Change Engine Oil and Filter
Change TC-SST Oil
Change TC-SST Filter
Change Transfer Oil
Replace Coolant Hoses
Change Rear Axle Oil
Change Timing Chain For New Version
Also, unless you plan to mod the car, consider buying the extended warranty. If you are gonna mod it then just invest in the transmission upgrades from SSP, and have it done by a reputable shop, like Shep or COBB.
Do this and you shouldn't have to worry too much about the car's history.
You will also save yourself a lot of money on maintenance.
You will have to pay an independent shop to look the car over, but it's well worth the money in the long run.
