i just got my evo yesterday! i always wanted an evo since i was a kid and this day has finally come. do you guys think this is a good deal? its a 03 with 30k, brand new calipers and brakes, brand new 4 tires, hks bov, turbo timer, boost gauge, cusco rear strut bar, catback exhaust, and its dropped for all 24,500. the color of the springs is orange..does anyone know what kind of springs those might be?? and also do you think i would need an alignment since its lower bcuz it feels like it do need one. oh yea the ride is smooth but it can get really uncomfortable sometimes.

overall i just want to know what most of you guys think?? did i get a good deal or not??

 

"an" evo

 

shocks would be espelir gt??? or a bleached eibachs

also since your dream came true

be aware that the evo is number 2 in most stolen vehicles. so watch out. somebody probably got their eyes on yours already

other than that, congratz and im sure youll love driving it.

 

well b4 an evo i had a really nice and clean integra that is also considered the one of the most stolen vehicles

 

Congrats on the ride. Check out the evo-ny.com site.

 

u pay 24500 for 03 kinda rip off........who u buy from? private or dealer?
u can pick up mine for $21500.....i got turbo back exhaust and brand new advan tires too.
pm me anyone interest

 

I personally would take off the lowering springs and replace them with the stock ones, if he or she did not give them to you at the time of purchase, then I am sure you can find some used on the site somewhere. I believe the orange colored ones are Tanabee but don't quote me on it. But that is my guess. Congrats on the purchase, now welcome yourself to crazy insane insurance. haha...Take Care of it!!!

 

i bought it from a dealer thats why i thought the price was actually decent also my insurance isn't that bad considering i only had my license for 2 years and i have alot of tickets. 3200 a year full coverage. i know thats alot but i know ppl who pays more for cars that dont cost more than $5000

 

yeah i sold mine for 23k with 24000 miles and more mods then you listed 2 years ago (before the glorious evo9 came out) and STILL i gave that guy a good deal. your 03' evo with 30000 miles shoulda been closer to 22k unless u bought it from a dealer, then u basically paid for some warranty. also if those new tires are advans and not some cheap crap, then u actually didnt get ripped off.

 

A week or so ago some one from Mitsu was offering a great price around $27,000 or so for new IX. In comparison, your's is not a very good deal. But what matters is whether you were happy with deal or not. If you try to research on this now (after the fact), you will end up disappointed for sure.

So have fun and enjoy the car.

 

yes integras was one of the stolen vehicles too but this year is the 03-05 evo

 

most dealership dont sell used cars in a decent price, they will tell you all those sh** bout the mods on the car when they have no idea what theyre talking about. damn 266 a month for the insurance?? i thought i have the highest insurance payments. maybe coz of my sparkling clean record.

 

damnit 2 years alot of ticket...now an evo... guys im 17 and i know this is trouble already...get ready for i crashed my evo thread soon...damn im getting an evo but i dont drive like a nutjob.. **** and people say i shouldnty get an evo...

 

yea and you got owned on that price never go to a dealership for a used car...overrated and overpriced

 

i bet people that cant afford them say that. i had few civic, rsx and tc owners told me not to get it but when they saw it...all they do is say "wait until i get my header"."wait until i get this part" "wait until i get this & that and ill smoke you"...i was like "man you better cut that s*it out, coz imma be gettin this parts soon too and theres no way you gonn catch up" something like that.

youll love the evo.
