After a long *** two month period, the wait is FINALLY over! I open my mail today and see an envelope from Farmers insurance, inside was a check for a few bucks short of $19,000!

They gave me way more then my car was worth. In a private sale I could have only received a maximum of MAYBE $15.5K because my 06TR has over 55k miles, more dings then a cheap prostitute and and overall pretty abused from really hard driving so you can imagine that I'm VERY excited! Man, being without a car for almost 2 months has taken its toll on me! I need my car fix, I'm def having withdrawals... Now the fun part and I need your help!

My car choices are:


1. EVO IX SE with as low miles as possible.

2. 06-07 WRX STi, again with as low mileage as possible, and it'd have to be a KILLER deal, otherwise I'm not interested in the Subie, the EVO is a much more desirable for me, but the STi is a distant 2nd place.


Does anyone know of any EVO 8 or 9s that can be had for around 22-25k? I was wondering if you guys could help me look for one online and post your results here in this thread.


Like I said, first pick is an EVO in those specific years/models, or something comparable, and in second choice is a pig nose WRX STi. The new STi is out of the question. I'd like the new body style EVO X, but I just can't afford a brand new one at the moment.


So please, please, PLEASE help me find my new baby! I'll love you forever! I'm going through car withdrawals and I need my fix!!!


Thanks!

join the bmw crew lol.

 

do u absolutely need a newer car at the moment? Why not buy something cheap and reliable and save up until you can buy the EVO X, or a 09 STi

 

honestly, daniel, i'd get a new car with an extended warranty (bought online, not at the dealership unless they give you a kickass deal)
evo X's are pretty affordable, and i am sure you can qualify for 0% apr and pay it off in 5 years.

 

1. I don't want an new STi

2. Still not sure about the evo X... Ive been in love with the 9 since it came out

3. Its like telling a drug addict to hold off on the drugs until later, its just not gonna happen.

 

How much do you think I can get a 5speed EVO X for? I don't want to make payments, I just want to throw down a big wad of cash.

 

what happened to your frankenstien RS idear?

 

what happened to your insurance rates?

 

pay in singles!!! when they ask you to sit in the office, sit on 10bags of singles. then when the deal goes through make it rain!!!!

 

^^^^ do it

 

32-33 otd maybe.
i feel you on the no payments thing, but the biggest problem for me when i was in the same boat was... wtf am i going to do if my car breaks down? i'm sure you can tweak cars here and there, but the biggest concern for me when i had to get a replacement was reliability and a warranty. its all you though.

 

how about a E46? just an idea..

 

The dealership here in FF has the EVO X GSR asking like $31 MSRP... so definitely OTD below that with a good rate right now.

 

e46 m3 would be sick...tool much upkeep though, thats why i didnt get it

 

I'd LOVE to have an E46 M3, one of my fav cars to drive, but I'm afraid I couldn't afford one... What kind of E46 do you think I can get for around $25k? Is it possible?
