Will any of the Evo's be collectors cars later?
I own an RS, and can't seem to find the sales for these cars in the U.S. over the last few years, but I know that not a great deal of them were sold here.. so I got to thinking.. I wonder if they.. the MR, or even the viii or ix will be something to collect later on. What does everyone think?

if NOTHING ELSE, GET A FLASH/TUNE make sure u keep your stock rom so when u need to, u can flash back to stock! I would definitely upgrade airflow parts!!! Even w/ the horrible first tune I recieved, the car felt soooo much better! 2 different beasts

typically mass produced cars don't become so much of a collectors item until they get **REALLY** old. I don't believe the evo's are rare enough that they will fall into that category for a very long time. I'm 29 years old now. If I still have the car and its in good shape and mostly stock when I'm 60 or 70, Perhaps it'll be worth double what I paid for it...but I doubt it.

well I don't know how many IX's were sold in the U.S. but I remember somewhere reading that only 700 or 1400 ( don't remember the exact number ) of the RS's were sold here... and as many of us here know... almost all Evo's have a ton of mods done to them, and while they are fun to mod and obviously drive... the value drops drastically on them ( as in any car ) so that's what got me thinking about it being a collector.

Yeah I've kept all of my stock parts except my exhaust....just didn't have the room for it. I'm sure there will be many evos bought and sold before I'm old and retired and many of them will end up in the junk yard. I will keep mine because I won't need to sell it or trade it to get another car. THIS ONE'S A KEEP FOR ME.
