Evos have definitely come down in price… I’ve seen higher mileage ones and ones needing some bodywork for like low teens…

Someone affiliated with AMS sold a stock 8 RS with 110k miles on it for like $11.5k a few months back. Don’t think it was damaged, just the high mileage… That looked like a killer deal, esp to someone looking to do a built engine… Saw another one go for $12 and change with like 90k on the clock.

Sure they would need some work, but I would venture to say for less than $15k total outlay you could have a nice running Evo 8 (9 may be a long shot) if you did some work on it and were not that particularly about color/body condition.

Was it really bone stock as in untouched, or was it a slightly modded car returned to stock?

In my case, I found out the original owner did a couple of small things that were then removed before selling the car- one that I didn’t catch until I sold the car myself was that the BOV was replaced with the aluminum one from an Evo MR.

I drove two RS’, wanted white but for some reason the owner of the white one wanted more $$ because “white was a more desirable color”.

No sooner did the words leave his lps than his boy / groupie hoe comes out of his car with Ebay printouts of white RS’ selling for more than red ones…

I $hit you not… I was like “WTF?@!” then said “ok good luck selling it at that price” and walked away. Bought a red one from CT in the end. Good memories, great car! :thumb

It’s an VIII RS, front / hood / tails / supports shipped from Japan and installed and painted here.

I had always wanted a VII and this was the only realistic way to do it given the options.

I remember a Subie coming up to me on the Northway before with the passenger’s faces stuck to the window as the guy riding shottie made hand gestures signifying “VII?”

(I think my wife thought they were some ill gang signs)

I feel ya kid, not everyone can be Bow Wow’s boi… :lol

But seriously, back on topic… Stock to stock, I would take an Evo VIII or IX over an R32 GT-R.

Why? It’s easier to drive fast, probably just about as fast even past triple digit speeds, chassis is way stiffer (duh it’s a lot newer I know) and the steering feel is superior. Probably cheaper to maintain too (even assuming you could get GT-R parts here easily)

That being said, the killer part of the GT-R is really how you are in a corner pouring on speed and you get this uncanny sensation like grip is literally being transferred to where the weight is. It’s unreal. Especially when you consider it’s 20 year old technology.
