Utah Evos
For those who are looking to buy Evo's and have found some rediculous prices, get used to it. I don't know what it is but Dealerships think they can make a ton of money off of them. When I was looking, there was a dealership back in Jersey that was listing 04 evo 8 RS's for 28k. $28000!!!!!!!!!!!! Are you kidding? Nope, they weren't. I called and point blank asked them why they were selling them for $5000 more than anyone else and how they were selling a 3 year old car for $1000 less than original MSRP. The answer was "it's super clean, you have to come look." I can't numb nuts, I'm in Utah. Anyway, sorry about the rant. You just have to be patient. You might have to be willing to travel a little for the best deal, but if you can't do that, one will come up local. I got mine with 34k miles for under $18k. I had to go to Seattle to pick it up, totally worth it though. Good luck with the search.

Dealerships are a pain in the *** to deal with and always will be.MSM_S2K Love the photos
That RS at Autostrada is the perfect RS price for its year and mileage, as far as the market was concerned when I was selling. Not too good of a deal, but not a rip-off.
Coming soon to a Jake near you (what, like 30-40 years from now...):
Yep, just that guy... 
Anyway, guess who totally won LMP2 and GT2 (the only 2 classes with really any competition).... Porsche... WOOT!

Apparently that RS was a good deal because its gone. No biggie, I want white RS or silver or white GSR...
Sweet pics of LeMans. Wish I could have gone.

Oh right, I forgot "pro" just means you get paid for it.
So rephrased... What kinda company sponsors a driver like that
PS... fastest time on track... Porsche RS Spyder!!! Hells yea! Now if only the parts department at Dave Strong didn't have to be so *****y... I swear, everytime I go there I find new reasons for why most Porsche owners are *******s... No wonder it was a guy from Colorado that waved at me on Sunday on the way out... Its just the Utah ones that deal with Dave Strong Seriously, all I wanted was a blinker bulb... I unbolted the whole headlight housing to take in, plopped a 996 headlight assembly on the parts table, opened up the blinker socket, pulled out the bulb and said "THIS ONE" Lazy ***, I know he could look it up on the computer, the other guy did for the other headlight bulb...
