Too good to be true??
I think I've seen this on ebay before but just seein what everyone else thinks. This is too good of a deal to pass up. I'd love a new evo but a used one for this price would be awesome. Think somethin is wrong with it? What a lovely blue and a free turbo timer as well 
Should I go for it if the price doesnt get too high?

If it stays low i would say go for it... but be prepared to replace the clutch i bought a used one up here in alaska with 13k miles on it and its sitting in a transmission shop waiting to have a new clutchmaster put on it, after a week of my driveing it... the dealership is paying for about 3/4 of the cost but it almost cost me $1,400...
Just keep in mind, this is a rally inspired car... and its prob been driven like one for the first 12k miles of that cars life. Used can be a crap shoot.

fyi.. despite the clutch i still love mine

theyll pull it if the price isnt what the want. you for sure wont get it for anything under $24k.
i was watching ebay for a while before i got mine last friday from a friend of my roomates who just had to sell it for what he owed. i got lucky. other than that most sellers on ebay are pretty good and ebay covers cars up to 20k. plus you can always go thru an escrow site to ensure you dont get ripped off.

FYI, There is another thread somewhere on this board about this car. Poster who knew the previous owner said it had some mechanical issues.

newer tires too.. stock ones should have lasted a bit longer..
I'd stay away from used evo's. Too many drivetrain parts that can be messed up. you don't know what that car has been through.
and most mitsu shops won't warranty that car with an open air fillament and a turbo timer.
