Does an Evo that has “been sitting for a while due of being out of the country, it starts and it will run, but i think it will need to be re-tune” become worth taking the risk? Salvage title, clear exterior abuse, guy is asking $7500 obo.

Unless you want a project Evo and can wrench on it, hell no.

Not even a real private seller. It’s obviously parked at a shady dealership.

Why would a fuel injected computer controlled car need a re-tune? Run away.

Rally car project or don’t bother. If you want a cheap way to make a rally car that’s competitive for under 10k, then this is a bargain. You’ll be replacing/upgrading most of the stuff that could’ve gone wrong anyways. Sell off the interior and other parts that are good and get yourself a remappable ECU, better cooling system, new bushings all around, new tires and brakes......ANd yeah then put in some proper seats, harnesses, and a cage and you could be BRAPBRAPBRAPing for about 10k.

For a car you want to drive on the street? Run. Run far away. Doesn’t matter the direction.

Track rat was pretty much my thought as to the only value proposition here.

Pffft. Walk away.

What price? $500. At that price, you’re buying a scrap-heap you can part out to recoup your investment. Much more than that...eff no.
