honestly it is in mint condition, but for 21k you can almost get an X with like 25k miles. **** CarMax here in Vegas has 2 of them with 25k miles ish for 24k. I would rather spend the extra $3k for a 5-6yr newer Evo

Could be $ 18k or $ 19k, it's true that the Evo doesn't lose value like the Cobalt (imagine a 10 year old SS how much can be worth it) but almost $ 20k for a 10 year old it's still a lot. At least my opinion.

Evo's and STi's hold there value really well. In all honesty yes you got a nice ass un molested Evo, congrats!

Yeah but Subaru is gonna be around for a long time. Mitsubishi is gonna have to leave North America. When that happens, EVO resale is likely to mmmmmmmdroooopppp.

Man those cloth Evo Recaros don't hold up well. Only 19K miles and the side bolster and side of the seat on the driver's side is already faded and collapsing. Happens on all EVOs with those seats. It starts at around 10K miles.

Great color. Congrats OP.

Welcome to the club!

Considering the fact that the car is completely unmodded, and only has 19000 miles, it's worth every bit of $20k or more. Hell, my car has 78000 miles and still has a kbb value of $22000

That's a great find, it looks like it's in a good condition. Congrats! I think it's a bargain to have an Evo like that with only 19k miles.

Is it Evolution VIII or IX?
