it shouldn’t… the money you save will pay for anything that goes wrong. plus you won’t really get much of a warranty on an evo – dealers will say a change in tire air pressure voids the warranty… but regardless, make sure you pick a good example – most “stock” dealer trade-ins are cars that were once modified and returned to stock in a half-assed way. ---

thanks for the info. trying to guage if i wanna take the warranty or buy older and keep the money i save and use that. plus i figure its gonna be hard to not mod it so that would void the warrany anyways. i am gonna start looking for 03+ models under 20k and see what comes up and see how it fits. ---

Found a couple VII, VIII, and IX’s I am going to look at between 14k and 20k all with under 30,000 miles. Most aren’t the MR but I am not extremely picky on that. What are some big points to check for replacements? Tranny and clutch. Anything else that is a big thing to look at? Also, anyone who finds something local under 20k please let me know or PM me your cars for sale. Would really like to be close to the car to see it without traveling. ---

Is the factory warranty cover the tranny, clutch, and transfer case if you do not do any power train mods? ---

you’ll almost never get a clutch covered… tranny and transfer case have a decent shot if you have nothing in the power train modified… they’ll try and pin anything they can on you so they don’t have to cover it… ---

Ya I am not too worried about the big wear items but more about the tranny in a used one if that would be covered. ---

You can call mitsubishi with the vin numbers, and they’ll tell you the remainder of the warranty. Also mitsu dealer service depts do this for me all the time. Just call them up and tell them you’re thinking of buying this car, want to make sure it wasn’t abused, blah blah blah… ---

No Way, scam, been in accidents or salvage. 20k is a bit more believable and still cheap [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/evo-guys/57213.md?page=1) [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/evo-guys/57213.md?page=3)
