We Found the Worst Mitsubishi Evo
We Found the Worst Mitsubishi Evo-June 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:09:45

in decent condition can be found on Craigslist all day long for upwards of $10,000, but how often does a perfectly beat-to-shit, single-owner example surface?

Yeah, this is one rare bird.

This Evo, with an asking price of $7,300, has damage all around its body, heavily faded paint, has a cable-tied license plate, and appears to lack a front passenger seat. But! According to its seller, “mechanically, it has never failed me and has been reliable to a fault.”

That’s the important thing, right?

In addition to its heavily mangled body, this Evo is sporting a “Whores Wanted” sticker. Tasteful!

If we are to believe this seller, in true Evo spirit, this car was once modified and tuned to put out 440 horsepower—176 more than what Mitsubishi claimed from the factory. It’s safe to assume the massive pile of leaves collected under the hood doesn’t contribute to that additional power count.

Look. If I’m being totally honest, this is probably the type of Evo I’d buy. Sure, it’s been seriously trashed, but it’s still a single-owner car with relatively low miles. If I could get this seller down to around $5,000 (and, uh, if I had $5,000 to spare), this thing would totally be for the season.

Also, I’d probably dump that sticker up front.

Oh, while you’re here! Are you obsessed with broken Evos or other Craigslist project cars?

Could A Grey Market 1989 Nissan Pao Be Worth $5,899?
On the classic TV sitcom The Honeymooners, Jackie Gleason's character, Ralph Kramden, was famous for saying to people 'pow, right in the kisser.' Today's Nissan Pao is a JDM special, but you can buy it here, if its price isn't a punch in the teeth. It's hard to imagine that...

This 1971 Ford Torino Wagon Wants $5,900
Today's Ford is green on the outside and gold within. The classic mid-sized wagon looks to be in great shape, but will its demand for your green and gold leave you feeling blue? Yesterday's came away with a solid 77% Nice Price win. That affirmation of value was so strong...

Is This Honda-Swapped 2006 Lotus Elise A Bargain At $39,000?
In Yoga, there's a cross-legged meditative asana known as the lotus position. In the car world there's also a Lotus position, which involves reaching for your wallet. Today's Elise might make you grab your cash, if that is its price doesn't make you assume another position. You love the Lotus...

2014 Ford Fiesta ST: The Jalopnik Review
"Remember that car? That sure was a great car. I really wish they still made that car today, because I'd totally buy one." That's a conversation that happens multiple times a day in the Jalopnik comments. Let me tell you this: years from now, the will be the subject of...

A 1984 BMW 745i Turbo for $2,800?
At what point does price supersede common sense? Today's factory turbo BMW E23 is cheap, but will its copious description of fabulousness and foibles make its low price seem daunting? Yesterday's received the same response as would some sort of freaky June Bug unexpectedly ricocheting around your bedroom late at...

Driving On The Wrong Side Of The Car Is Massively Confusing
Driving On The Wrong Side Of The Car Is Massively Confusing
I've now spent a little more time in the . Driving on the passenger side is weird. Here's what I've learned so far. 1. Your windshield wiper is not your blinker. 2. The gearshift is not located in the door panel. 3. The drive-thru is a new adventure, bring a...
