Evo Ix

[thommo]

that is proper f**cked. i don't think it's rolled but the way that the steering column has been crumpled inwards doesnt bode well for the drivers health...

[JaFF]

hrmm I think it's ran into something head on and then flipped straight up and rolled landing on the boot area.

[D-limo]

My conspiracy:

Evo tailends heavy vehicle....Evo does either 2/3 or 1 and 2/3 front flip.

[nghiagero]

jeebus... what ever happened its still a waste. ill give em $10 per wheel and $10 the rear chassis. rubber still looks new and the rear chassis looks alrite....

[Sambo33]

what a mess...

[ylwgtr2]

its definatly seen better days .....hahaha it looks like a ford KA

[Topaz]

, that thing has been weemanised

unlucky, I'd like to know if it was a crash or a shipping fault or something?

[liber8_d]

So who'd buy an evo with wind-up windows and no radio? Is it a weight saving measure?

And where are the Recaro buckets?

[Mandingo]

Itsuki trys out the evo....

[vrm]

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Its like the N1 GTR, its the cut down "homologated" version the rally cars are/were based on. Power windows, radio, air conditioning (I believe the RS does have 'climate control' though) are all pretty much useless in a car that is sold with the intentions of being the basis of a rally car. That said though, people do by the RS because its cheaper, and/or they dont mind using 10 seconds of muscle to wind down the window.

That said, I have a test drive of the Evo IX on Friday afternoon... hoping I dont turn it into something resembling that

ylwgtr2, excally what i was thinking, idetical to a Ford KA from the rear

[[HOTNXR]]

all i can say is next person buying one... make sure its not this one (if someone enough is crazy to fix it)

[streamer]

Im sure alot of parts could still be used from that car, considering its almost new.

Just off the top of my head,

- Seats

- Springs/Shocks/Bushings

- A rim?

- Some parts of the dash

- Aircond control panel

- Dash cluster

- Sway Bars

....

Im sure theres more little pieces here and there he/she could salvage some money for..

And did the steering crumple or was made to crumple to remove the driver?

Curious..

HOTNXR, Your avatar scares the sh*t out of me.

[Butler]
