If it drives fine, then I wouldnt worry about it. If you want to get an exhaust for it, let me know, I have my full TBE for sale for 300 , its a apexi gt spec dp, highflow cat, and dc sports catback.

Thank YOU MIKE!

I finally got a look at the car at the shop I work at (I was on vacation all last week). The front camber is off, there is new bracing bolts. Not too bad. However the front intercooler piping to frame bolts are not attached, some soft bolts are missing. They said they replaced the rear control arm and aligned it. It had 1degree of total toe in!!! The rear frame where it bolts to the bumper supports has been bent and then straightened. There are still bend marks and holes that could rust. The left rear quarter has bondo cracks, and the paint doesn't match exactly.

I was never told this was wrecked!!!

I'm going back tonight. Already talked to them. I'll be giving a full look over to their 2005 model.

Thanks Mike for making me nervous enough to go through it with a fine tooth comb. You saved me a $20k mistake!

If I don't walk away with a red one, I might just walk with a check and get a rental car for a few days. Can anyone recommend a good clean Evo?

Im really glad that I looked at this car now, You should really look at dealing with a new dealership, I have heard nothing but bad shit about walser. Im sure there are alot of other evo's for sale that are in better shape.
