Meh....Tyson if you look at it, we basically did 2 full coilover installs in a day. Considering multiple trips out to get tools, adventures on foot for the elusive 2x4, and the fact that neither of us do this **** every day, I dont think it was that bad.

You guys see this on the classifieds? https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...d.php?t=319156

That's about the amount of $ I was going to throw at the Talon, but I'm thinking I should sell it and get this Evo. Thoughts?

As much as I'd like to see you come back to the dark side, you have to wonder why its so cheap? Thats next to nothin for a car with only 15k miles. You know its been driven hard. 15 grand face value, but look @ all the cash you'll have to put in for upkeep.....I'd say no in this circumstance.

+1 That is a very strange selling price for the modifications added. I would expect to see 25k+ for something of that magnitude.

I'm a little shady about the price and condition. It says it has a 5th gear grind and if hes trying to compensate for the price of a trans rebuild its not that much to get it done. Can't hurt to contact the guy and see whats up though.

Put it this way...I despise stickers on cars. I'd rather drive a primer sprayed car for life, than have stickers. I just put 2 of the Modified Auto Salon stickers on my windows.

Allan and Jeremy have saved my *** more than I can count on my fingers, and thats just in the past week.

They definately rate free advertisment from stickers... and my money
