Today we're bringing you a 2011 Mitsubishi Evo MR that might need a bit of work.

There are 83K miles and the car has apparently had some major maintenance done -- and it has a new catalytic converter, spark plugs, and new valve cover gasket.

The bad news is that the transmission apparently needs some work -- you can see the issues if you click through.

The asking price for this Connecticut-based car is $20,000. If you want to own an Evo with some performance mods and can afford to address the transmission issues, this car could be yours.

Tim Healey

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

Front tag obscured. Rear tag - clear and sharp. Huh?

The saddest part is that Chrysler used to own the Lancer nameplate, and gave it to Mitsubishi. Not even the stretched K-car of the '80s could ruin the name, but Mitsubishi did.

Turbo Is Black Magic My wife had one of these back in 06, did a ton of work to it… supercharger, full exhaust, full suspension.. it was a blast to drive even though it was still hilariously slow. Great for drive in nights, open the hatch fold the seats flat and just relax.Also this thing is a great example of how far we have come in crash safety even since just 2005… go look at these old crash tests now and I cringe at what a modern electric tank would do to this thing.
MaintenanceCosts Whenever the topic of the xB comes up…Me: "The style is fun. The combination of the box shape and the aggressive detailing is very JDM."Wife: "Those are ghetto."Me: "They're smaller than a Corolla outside and have the space of a RAV4 inside."Wife: "Those are ghetto."Me: "They're kind of fun to drive with a stick."Wife: "Those are ghetto."It's one of a few cars (including its fellow box, the Ford Flex) on which we will just never see eye to eye.
Oberkanone The alternative is a more expensive SUV. Yes, it will be missed.
Ajla I did like this one.
