FS: 2003 Evolution 8
 
Ideally looking for around 22,000ish but it's obo of course.

I'm the second owner. Previous owner was my friend's father. The car has never been autocrossed and only been to one track day in it's life, and I used the Brembo/Ferrados that day. Looking to sell so I can go racing this summer (spec neon or kart).

Evo:
-Completely Stock
-45,000 Miles
-Apex Silver
-HIDs
-Small Wing
-Sunroof
-Dealer Installed Canards
-Vortex Generators (Just put this on. OEM piece. Will separate.)
-New Tires 2000 miles ago
-New Brake rotors/pads all around in February

Additional items that could be worked into the sale or sold separately:
-Front and rear Brembo crossdrilled, slotted rotors w/Ferrado race compound pads
-Extra set of stock wheels with Blizzaks
-Ebay British Style Evolution VIII Badge
-Rear Sway Bar (need to confirm brand)
-Extra set of tires w/about 50% tread, but two got nails in them and have been plugged/patched at Discount Tire. I had an extra set of new tires so I installed those. Tires had no noticeable change after patches.

hotttttttt, what exactally is the ebay badge?? is that just evolution written in smaller script on the trunk? instead of spaced out like: E V O L U T I O N V I I I

expensivehobby22 11-07-2006 10:12 PM

The ebay badge is the one you are thinking of, only the I I I is all molded as one piece of plastic. It's not on the car yet.

BrokeEnthusiast 11-08-2006 06:04 PM

out of curiosity, how do these hold their value? I want to get one in a couple of years when I get out of college. Just didnt know if they were going to come down or be like supras and rx-7's that stay high

Ben 11-08-2006 06:21 PM

The supras and Rex's did come down and went back up.

I had a pristine 94 RX-7 Touring that I bought for 8k, drove it for a while, then sold it with 61k on the odo for 13k. That was a few years ago, and now you can't get one as nice as mine unless you go to the upper teens. I only sold it because you are supposed to build the motor every 60k, which is a very slippery slope to spending 6k+ on the build.

BrokeEnthusiast 11-08-2006 06:32 PM

haha thats why you get a v8!!!!

Ben 11-08-2006 06:40 PM

Yeah, maybe next time. Instead, I used the money to pay off the credit cards.

expensivehobby22 11-09-2006 09:49 AM

Not sure about values. Wish I knew.

Hey,

Is it the lighting? The doors look like a different color?

fmowry 11-14-2006 02:17 PM

I think it's the lighting.

An unmodded EVO? Didn't know they existed.

Loki047 11-14-2006 02:47 PM

Jefe, not cool with the picture... but brilliant :)

expensivehobby22 11-14-2006 03:26 PM

Definitely a lighting thing.

rotaryjunky 11-27-2006 10:38 AM

Where exactly are you? I want to see your cars sometime. I would like to replace my b16 civic with an EVO but not until next school year when the wife goes back to work.

rotaryjunky 11-27-2006 10:48 AM

Do you have any info on your rx7 anywhere?

I'm in Royal Oak. What kind of info do you want for the RX-7?

It's got K&N Filters, Ebay Hardpipe Intake, SRT-4 Intercooler, Greddy Elbow, Sreetported Motor, Petit Downpipe, Bonez Hi Flow Cat, and a Racing Beat Dual Catback. I've got a Petit Unlimited ECU controlling it all. Other than that, SSR Comp wheels and about five shades of Vintage Red :)

Here is a Pic of the Cars...I was bored yesterday.

rotaryjunky 11-27-2006 03:14 PM

WOW. I will be in Ferndale over the Holidays. Are tours available?

expensivehobby22 11-27-2006 03:44 PM

I'm always willing to talk cars with someone interested so sure, if I'm around. Not exactly sure what I'm doing that time of year yet.

hatch4raceb16 12-03-2006 09:24 PM

Good guy and super clean EVO.

Seen it in person and can vouch.

spyderplayer 01-07-2007 03:14 AM

i want the evo i just cant afford it i will give you my miata for it. 97 m edition www.freewebs.com/miatafe3 i can work some other stuff in as a trade. i need a evo i raced pro Formula SCCA this year and the miata will not cut it. i need a faster car and i have driven so many evos and i love them to extreme.

expensivehobby22 01-08-2007 02:15 PM

I really can't do a trade. I'm already in the middle of a miata buildup as it is. I need another one like I need a hole in the head (although your's is very nice looking for sure).

I'm sure somone would snap your miata up in no time if you posted it on here. Then you could straight out buy my car. Send me a pm. Maybe we could work something out, assuming you sold your car.

miataspeed1point6 01-08-2007 11:05 PM

I SWEAR it's your red Miata that I have seen around here! I always catch a red one with dark wheels driving far away, but I don't think it has a hard top. There is also a red one with a yellow stripe around the belt.

I live in Oak Park, and I work in Royal oak. Your the only other Miata guy I know around here, it's cool your close. Would you have any spare Miata stuff for sale? Sorry for the off topic and good luck on selling your car.

expensivehobby22 01-09-2007 08:57 AM

It might be me, but I've only driven the car like 100 miles since I've gotten it.

Yes, I have a whole car worth of parts for sale.

https://www.miataturbo.net/forums/showthread.php?t=6326

Feel free to come over and check out the parts.

expensivehobby22 02-14-2007 03:49 PM

Looks like I finally sold this thing...

Now I can play with the miata more :)
