Buying an evo out of state (repost)

Hey guys,
I'm looking into buying an Evo that is located in Austin, Texas. I live in south florida, so it's a bit difficult of a transaction because I can't go check out the car and then make a decision. So I was wondering, and this may be a long shot, If there is anyone in austin texas that can check it for me on my behalf. If there's anyone willing, please pm me. I would be very appreciative.

Man,

I bought a used evo almost a year ago...

Make sure you check everything, something i regretted not doing. When i purchased my RS i thought it was pristine.

Now that i torned it all apart, i have no front crash beam, no rear crash beam. My front bumper is loose as ****, the interior is missing bolts and brackets everywhere. My downpipe was hanging loose with no bolts, o2 housing bolt hose are crooked and i had boost leak just about everywhere. Replaced TB, rubber hose, etc... geez.

Yeah, It's amazing what pictures hide. I could make a ****ing list. With that being said, be careful dude. It's amazing the things you find after a month or so of owning a car. Stuff you would never notice without driving the car for some time.
