Up for sale is my beloved 2005 Mitsubishi Evo 8 MR. 62,000 miles. I am selling for no reason other than my situation changing and needing the money at the moment. I am the second owner and this car is in great mechanical shape. This has always been my number one priority hence why it still sits stock on the outside. This car has always been worked on by a specialized mechanic and as far as he or myself knows it's in great condition. I have owned it for about 6 years and put only about 32,000 miles on it. When I bought the car with 30k on the clock I did a full 60k tuneup along with some upgrades. I have had all fluids changed every 15k. I just put in a new oem clutch about 2k miles ago and there is no shifting or lockout issues as common with some clutch changes. The reason there is no BBS wheels is because the previous owner swapped them out before trading the car into the dealership I purchased it from. Interior is in great condition overall with some driver seat wear, a little fade on the top of the back seats from the sun, there is a small scratch next to the passenger door handle, and a couple nicks near the center console. I'd say 8/10 to be reasonable. The exterior has a couple of small issues. There is a scrape on the left rear bumper, there is a couple of small nicks on the back of the rear bumper and one on the trunk. The car has no front lip and has some expected nicks on bumper and hood from rocks. This was a daily driver so it has been driven. I have never raced/tracked/dragged/launched this car. The underside of the wing has some clear coat fade and the brake calipers have some clear coat fade, both of which are standard on evos. This car does not burn oil or have any leaks.
This was a California car and is great for California because of the stringent laws on modified vehicles. I have done what I can to retain stock appearances. I have had 2 smogs with this vehicle and it has passed both visual and emissions testing. The only thing necessary to achieve this is to put on a stock turbo back exhaust.
It will take very minimal cosmetic work for this to be an outstanding representation of the final year of the Evo 8 MR.
It was street tuned conservatively on 91 gas. Boost is set a conservative 21lbs tapering to 19lbs. I have never dynoed it but judging by other cars with similar mods its around 330whp. This can easily be pushed higher if wanted. The car rips, it's spools fast and pulls hard.
