So I checked out an EVO VIII

There is an evo for 20k and it is a white 2005 EVO VIII SSL with 33k miles. There are no mods and is completely stock. I am learning that the car I am looking at SHOULD be selling for around 17k-18k.

I just checked it out in person It was nice and all.No dents, no scratches, just acouple of knicks in the paint. The carbon fiber spoiler has a line on the top of the spoiler from opening the trunk and it rubbing on the antenna; that was lame. I liked the moonroof and how it retracts all the way.

However, I just don't know. I wasn't too impressed with it and am not pooping my pants with excitement on purchasing it. I got to test drive it and i felt the power. It has nice torque and felt like it pulled strong. The guy was telling me i probably need to change the rear rotars and brakes because they are about 50% worn down. And the brake calipers in the front were faded (wasn't too happy about that).

I read that with these cars you need to replace the clutch, transfer case, etc. The clutch felt fine and wasn't slipping.

I want her to go down to 18k. Hmmm...
