Looks good, maybe you could email him and see if you could go inspect it in person before bidding.

I would ask that they put the stock airbox back in there. Stock evo's do not like intakes without tuning. Hunterkiller, what part of Atlanta are you from?

I'd check the board, I know there are alot of people selling evos on here. I see them all the time and you could communicate a little easier with someone here probably.

I'd wonder why with only 12K mis it has replacement Kuhmos on it.
Maybe the orig owner wanted all seasons for Atlanta winters, maybe not .
I know the Advans don't have great life but I have 15K+ on my car and still have the orig tires.
Something to think about.

DON'T BUY THIS EVO, it's my friends, he just traded it in. If you buy it you will be spending about 1500 off the bat just for both half shafts. He traded it in for an RSX and the dealer didn't even inspect that evo... Also, Mitsubishi will NOT COVER THE HALF SHAFTS. It has a brand new RPS Clutch in there with less then 500 miles on it. I'm being totally honest with you. Also car wasn't very well taken care of!

He just replaced the tires. He's got money, and when he sees that something is gonna start to go bad he replaced it. And by the way that RPS Clutch is his 3rd Clutch! Clutch was installed by Boost Solutions

Hunter killer you should come to one of our meets. I also know Msanad and his Evo has been very well taken care of and has been babied by Boost Solutions with every service. I would recommend his Evo to you.
