We Found the Worst Mitsubishi Evo
We Found the Worst Mitsubishi Evo-January 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.

Find .

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

At $18,500, Would You Lean Toward Buying This 2022 Ford Mustang?
Today’s Mustang is being sold by a towing yard, which means it’s probably a lien sale. Let’s see if this clean title convertible is priced to put a new buyer on the hook. The general consensus on last Friday’s was that it would be the perfect car for someone...

At $5,900, Is This 1984 Nissan 720 4X4 A Solid Deal?
According to its seller, today’s Nissan 4X4 shows “pride of ownership.” Let’s see if it would take swallowing one’s pride to pay its asking price. Opinions were split on how well the design of yesterday’s has held up over the years. Some of you commented that the design still...

The (and Tacoma) have a death grip on used values. It’s been this way for years. Go ahead, go try and buy any TRD trim that’s a couple of years old; it’ll cost you as much as a new one — not that you could buy a new one...

At $8,600, Would You Go Topless In This 1994 Cadillac Eldorado?
The seller of today’s Caddy claims they should be selling it at auction but says who’s got time for that? Let’s see if we have the time for this custom convertible at its non-auction price. Many of you agreed that the $950 asked for yesterday’s was “chump change.” Even...

At $950, Would You Go All-In On This 1984 Plymouth Colt GTS Turbo Project?
One of the calling cards of today’s Plymouth Colt is its “Twin Stick” overdrive gear change, which gives the car eight speeds going forward and two in reverse. Let’s see if this project car has anything else to offer. Just as Goldilocks discovered when appropriating Papa Bear’s lifestyle and...
