hmmm... is that a Blaupunkt stereo deck? and tails are tinted right? any other mods? With these cars I'd worry it was owned by a high school kid that rallied it. Any service records?

As cool as I think these cars are for their performance and exterior looks that interior is painful.

I totally agree. The deck is terrible and I need to see the service records and carfax. Haven't done that yet been busy. But I totally agree with you.

Seems like a decent price, but get it checked out. I have driven a few of these and the ones that are beaten feel like rattletraps. I would go for an STI, just because they feel like they are built better, and the interiors are way nicer.

I agree with you, I much rather an STI. They go for way to much money with way higher mileage.

Most of those Evo's and STI's have been "beaten like a rented mule" by their owners who typically buy them for one reason....modify them to the limits of what their motor can handle for as little money as possible, then beat the hell out of them, then remove said cheap mods and sell to unsuspecting buyer.

Me personally, I would look for a Evo 9 if you can afford it. I think the improvements far outweigh the cost. My .02

I love Evo 8's, a cousin of mine who still lives in the states has a Evo 8 with around 400hp with an apexi exhaust, hopefully around march he is coming back as I cant wait to drive the car.

The evolution is a hell of a car.
