    Default Is it impossible to find a clean used Evo 8

    I have been searching for nearly a month now, and still can not find a clean used Evo 8. Does no one take care of their cars anymore? Did anyone other than spoiled High schoolers buy evos?

    FFFUUUCCKKK..

    end rant.
    I'd rather drive a slow car fast, rather than a fast car slow.....

    Think about it!

    What are you looking for?

    If the price is right, I might jump on getting rid of mine... And you can eat off the engine bay and inside. Its a 2005 GSR with 72,XXX something thousand miles...

    How much are you looking to spend?

    That depends, what sort $$$ are you looking to get out of yours? What have you done to it? Can you share some more details?

    This is my car. I sold it to them a couple weeks ago for $15k. Only 2 major issues I know of - tcase was leaking at the driveshaft seal - just needs a new seal, 30 min of work. And the boost control solenoid isn't working correctly so only running 11 psi. Of course they didnt know that! Haha

    Other than that, the car is super clean. I owned it for 4 years and was basically a garage queen during that time.
