so i am looking still at buying an evo. i have been looking to get one for about the past 6 months. i would really like to get an evo 9 with about 50k or less miles but the price is a little high. i found a couple of evos for sale one had a new high performance tranny a different turbo, an clutch, full intake, full exhaust, headers, intercooler and the piping, new break pads, and new coil overs all done with good quality parts. it has 98k miles and they are all highway miles the price is 15,900. im wondering if a car like that would be a good buy? or would it be something that i will continuously dump money into it? HELP please!

Try not to get one over 60k cuz you don't know if they had the right work done for the 60k maintaince. Unless they have recipes. U can get an viii for like 16k with 50k or less miles. I love my viii. Just has it's moments lol

if you can find one with receipts from a dealership or nice shop then go for it. that 60K maintenance can be a killer all at once

watch out for cars hovering right around that 57-67K range unless they are clear about the maintenance

Well all the mods have receipts for them and it was all professionally done by AMS

try to find a stock one, ones with parts usually means modified and you wont know till after you start divin into your new purchase, whats stock whats been replaced....??? like someone said preferably less then 50k, when i bought my 03 4 years ago it only had 39k on it, but found out after some cosmetic underneath vehicle stuff was missing(skid plate etc), look under the car too....good luck

Lol no matter what you will end up dumping money into it, even if its brand new I got mine with 70k on it and right off the bat had to do the 60k service, I was told it was done, but then after buying the car a week later called and ask for specifics on what they did, they said they inspected everything and changed the oil lol... so I had it all done, I was told the clutch was recently replaced and was practically brand new, 7k miles daily driving no launches I was having the clutch replaced.... ASK for reciepts so they show you thinks were done, ask for specifics not broad questions they can get around.. no matter what any evo is a good evo... just be aware and go look at them knowing there are always more evos out there and you will eventually find one good luck with your hunt

IMO try to find a clean Evo 9 if you have the money. Better head design and better turbo make it worth the extra money.
