Why are evo's still so expensive? Are people really buying this jap shit for 23grand when it's 9 years old with 100k+ miles on them?

>driven only to work and home
>stage 1 clutch, flywheel brakes etc.
Yeah no
Anyway, the reason is probably that 95% of all evos are currently in a ditch somewhere, and 4.9% is riced.

thats not really that expensive

2006 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution Retail Prices
Trim MSRP Invoice
IX $32024 $29593
RS $29304 $27030
SE $16099 $15338
MR $35814 $33165
Yes it is.
>>
>>13999175
>motor has about 100k miles
But it's been babied its whole life, kek.

>>13999208
All of this. And even though this one is slightly riced, it's less fucked than most of the others still surviving. Dude is delusional about his pricing though. I think he believes the money spent on the new tires and JDM bumpers adds to resale value. So it's a combination of a few things that retarded sellers use to overprice their cars.
>>
They didn't sell very many evo 8's or 9's in the US so they still sell for high prices.
>>
>>13999221
What's the difference with the MR trim again? Somebody told me before but I forgot and too lazy to google.
>>
>>13999175
Because they are fucking stupid thats why.

Same reason people buy 1996 impala's for 20k with 70 thousand miles on them.

Mitsu EVO: IX vs MR vs RS?

What's the diff? I see big price differences, but not enough equipment diffs to make sense. Here's my guesstimated summary:

RS: No wing (yay!), alum doors/hood/roof of the MR, No ABS? No Radio? Manual crank windows & locks? $29,149 MSRP = cheapest??

IX: The "everyman's" Evo. Same 286 hp engine as all 3 have, same aluminum crap (except roof), more creature comforts, all steel body, etc. $31,499 MSRP

MR: Some funky shark fin dealies, alum doors/fenders/roof, 6-spd trans (better ratios... or worse?), Bilsteins, $36,299 MSRP!?! Local stealer wants $2000 over MSRP, ha!
>>
>>13999245
wow holy shit the rs didn't have abs in 2006? wait what?
>>
>>13999245
I remembered the main difference with the MR being the trans. So it's 6spd instead of 5spd in the normal Evo? And the little fin things on the roof above the rear window is why I always notice them.

No way they sold alot of RS's. Why would you buy a 4-door, AWD sports car with no radio or power anything? I mean I understand the appeal of it for a very small group of people. But lots of people who buy Evos and STIs get them because they want a sports car that still has some practicality as a DD sedan.

>>13999233
Mitsubishi Racing. All the best parts for the most durable/powerful/lightweight car they can make.
>>
>>13999245

Those fins are actually functional.

>>13999257

Hardcore mode.
>>
>>13999686
Yep

>>13999245
Pretty sure the MR has the ceramic turbine wheel from the JDM Evo but the others have inconel.

Because smart people are buying STi's instead

Are you guys so poor that you have to complain about the price of literally every car?
>>
>>13999175

Here in the UK they're cheap. The used car market here is great senpai

>>13999175
You could buy a BRAND NEW 2016 Subaru STI for 45,000 dollars in my area

You can buy an old ass early 2000s worn out subaru for upwards of $10,000 dollars

fuck this dude it's ridiculous why these old AWD cars retain their value for so long
>>
It's funny because the 350z is really cheap in comparison. Saw one for 10k the other day, stock 80k miles.
>>
>>14003137
That's gotta be fake..
>>
>>14003274
there's a 2007 going for $7k
the sports car that everyone my uni has
is a 350zx
and NA Miata
>>
>>14003278
Really? Haven't looked for them in a while. Maybe I'll buy one before they become rare and the prices go up again

It's not.

The seller was saying things in the ad like "the price is high but this is a serious ad for a serious buyer, not sold in Canada super rare blah blah blah" fucking idiot.
