good luck brother. I think that is a low ball for those people who spent thousands and thousands of there hard earned money to be sold at a "give me away" price. If you get lucky finding one, it would be beat on hard with high mileage. I also dont think pricing an evo 8 cheaper than a ix any different is right. its the same vehicle, you have to decide if you want mivec and misc things or not. when you are modifying them it doesnt make a difference.

good luck bud

i understand its the same vehicle, but i'm also looking at blue book value, its almost a 3-7k difference from a 03 to a 05 or 06.

You EATING DODO. You better get your money up man. Fully build for under 20k, something is wrong with it if they are selling it.

i understand that, but it doesn't have to be COMPLETELY built, it can be a majority. and yes i understand thats not very much, but the truth hurts, and mods deface the value of a vehicle. Yes the market hurts, yes i have cash once the right vehicle comes along. It will and there is one out there....just have to find it.

I understand, but what I was basing my opinion on was what the title said. you are looking for an '05 evo 8 or a 9 which would be 2006. Of course the kbb value of a 03 is totally different from a 05 or a evo 9. But if you have ever bought a modified vehicle before and appreciate the art in having such a high in demand car with such potential, you do not base a car by its kbb but by the appreciation, time, effort, and parts. It must be reasonable of course but expect to pay for a car fully built.

jrod sold his evo with everything on it for i believe $27,500 or more. I am sure you would like to get a steal of a deal. But wouldnt you think we would all love to have a steal of a deal as well for that same price?

not bashing or anything its just 20k or less for 9-10 sec car something isnt right. Then I think all the Honda Si lovers would ditch there ride and buy this instead of there Honda haha

if you read other posts i said that it doesn't need to toally be built just need the majorities as you said, i would mind a full bolt on and cams with turbo, i don't mind spending 4k on a engine.

haha Okay sorry(I'm sleep deprived and don't always read ) then ya Find one and do a compression test first thing that will tell you a lot about buying a Evo... If all the Cylinders are withing a few PSI like 5psi of each other then it in good shape... and the motor should still have some good life left in it Just something I like to go on all turboed car (mainly evos) before I buy one

Dude, seriously.... Please be real. Im going to be very vague bc of obvious reasons, but a buddy of mine just bought a car for a very low price that was "built", and in the very short time hes had it, he has stuck over $2k in just fixing it. Hes pretty pissed to say the least, bc all of this was not stated by the previous owner, but hey, like the saying goes, "You get what you pay for". So no need to wish u luck, bc you will find one, but hope you like working on the car and have deep pockets, cuz chances are thats probably whats gonna end up happening.
