Anyone have any advice/things to look for when shopping for a used evo? He wants me to come with him to give my opinion, but all i know about them is that they’re amazing vehicles, I can’t afford one, and that pepboys stocks almost no parts for them.

what year and how many miles?

there is nothing really particular. just like any vehicle just make sure everything sounds/runs good doesnt burn anything, just like you would look for in any used vehicle that you would buy. make sure the tranny shifts smooth and the transfer case doesnt have the notorious death whine.

There should be a used car buying sticky. Almost a checklist so to speak.
