My 3rd Evo

Hello guys,

I'm finally back into an Evo after 2 years . This is my 3rd evo, as all of you know it is hard to stay away from them once you owned them. My first one was a gsr, then a mr, and now a se. I always had this thing for the IX, I was so closed of buying a X but i'm glad I never did.

As for performance she is completely stock, the only thing done to her is Bilstein Struts with Swift springs and X Bbs wheels.

Best of all, she only has 25xxx miles

On the way home I ran into this

I'm gonna keep this one for as long as I can, I'm going to take it slow this time and make everything right. My plan is to get it somewhere around 400 and leave it there.

Nice! I love black evo's. Looks great with the X BBS. I bought my GG IX SE with 25k miles too bone stock! Paid pretty much top dollar for it though, did you get a good deal on yours?

I got an okay deal on it since a low mileage IX is hard to come by and most the Evos in South Florida are beated up, high prices with high miles.

Congratulations. Sold the first SSL Evo about 1.5 years ago and bought an RS with low miles a few months ago. This one is staying with me forever!

I'm also on my third Evo. Picked up an 06 mr 120k for 12k. Being that it was stock and the guy kept good records of oil changes and everything that was changed out why I jumped on it. The only way I'm letting this go is if I can find a low mileage one. But south Florida, it's hard to find good evos.

Thanks guys, I always wanted a SE and this one popped up for sale. The only thing that bother me is the color, although it is garage kept it still gets dusty. My first one was black and it was a pain keeping it clean.

Yea my first was black too. After I had my friend do a 8 hour exterior only clean on the car I gotta say it looked so sick. Other than that yea it pretty much always looked dirty when i owned it. I have a blue now and it is very easy to keep clean
