None of us can possibly know whether the RS is right for you or not. It's something that you need to decide for yourself. FWIW, I had a RS and I loved it to death. Sometimes I wish I'd bought another instead of a SE. It's even more raw and direct than the GSR/MR. If that's something that appeals to you, then the RS may be the right car. If not....

It is an rs if it has the black unpainted doorhandles black mirrors and a stripped out trunk i have one anyone can power door locks etc. The RS is an awesome car i recommend it any doubts ask esevo the baddest evo rs in our parts or just check out the badbish. Happy evo buying

FWIW, Darius at AMS is selling his EB IX, and the girlfriend of another AMS employee(Ian) is trying to sell her TB 03 VIII.

I'd be all over that EB IX if I didn't already have one If you buy either of these cars, you should let them know Derek referred you :P

The exhaust isn't stock...you should be checking around the car carefully, especially underhood, to see if the previous owner had any other mods (which may now be removed). Look for evidence of bolts being removed, boost controllers, etc. The dealer isn't going to help you with the history of the car, so unless some other forum members know this vehicle specifically, you're going to have to play detective yourself.
Seems like you are being cautious and doing your homework first, just be patient and I'm sure you'll find a great Evo.
