^^ Yeah some what of a good deal!! Actually, it'll be a legit deal i guess.

And hope everything runs properly. I hate used cars that look soo nice and clean, but when you drive it for a couple hundred miles, it takes a poo poo on you. :\ Blaah!!!

I bet most of the work done to the car was done my TurboTrix, they are in Edison NJ where he is from. Maybe give them a call and get some info on the car. They have their own section here on the Forum.

Absolutely not. The history of any one of these cars is likely to include plenty of abuse for even a stock one, let alone a highly modded example.

A modified Evo has just a great of chance of mechanical failure as a stock one. Buy if something goes wrong your far ahead of the game if you intend on building a car. It is extremely expensive to build a high hp car and you couldn't build that silver Evo for 18 grand.
