I'd say pretty good.

I'd say there are enough buyers in 2005 and 2006 that will like the 5year warranty and not touch there sub 5 second 0-60 car for the length of the 5 years.

Now how many will you find in 2010 or how much will they hold their value in 2009 is a different question.

I think a lot of people now are probably banking on Mitsu doing to the X what they did to the eclipse, resulting in low depreciation over the next 5 years.

Youd be able to find one...it would just be a matter of searching for it. If you can find a ~10yr old Integra Type R prestine then why not an Evo? The engine is what you'd really have to worry about.

You'll have to look but you can find it..l No question about it. How much will it cost is the question.

Keep my user name handy! I will have my 06 IX MR with only 25,000 miles and a few aftermarket parts.
intake/exhaust/defi gauges/downpipe/exhaust manifold/gsc cams/tune/jdm ix rear/apr splitter/rims/tints/exedy clutch ^^

I will be making all mods at once at 10k miles and then keeping all stock parts stored, so when I sell they will be pretty close to new. ^^

This question is silly. There are alot of evo's that remain stock. You think that every owner is out to mod and beat the **** outta the car? The modding community is relativly small. Also, just because a car is modded, doesnt mean the car is abused.
