Evo 9 MR FQ320 2007 30k
 
Hello people

Just wanting opinion regarding the above, whats it worth? FMSH, Stage 2 mods with remap. In Silver

I seen a few nice ones go between 13-16k?

Car has near to 400hp, how is the 9 to drive like with Mivec & how do they compare against the newage performance & handling wise?

I sold my 55 plate 9 FQ340 with 20000 miles and 400 BHP for £14.5k 3 years ago.

I never tried the X, the dealer was going to take a new one off the showroom floor to let me drive it, but I didn't want to as I wasn't serious enough about the X as I wanted more engine capacity to make up for the extra weight over the IX, and also wanted dual clutch but heard the X dual clutch was weak, and the 5 speed manual was geared too short.

The 9 with 400 BHP is astonishingly good to drive in any performance aspect, but exhaust drone on modded versions was my biggest issue.

Mine had 1.7 bar from 2500 to 6000 RPM, MIVEC rocks.

I had previously had a Classic Subaru with P1 suspension, AP brakes, 2.5 engine and a rotated GT30R 0.82AR running 1.6 bar, and didn't miss it at all when I had the Evo.

That is exactly the experience I was looking for! :D

With this being a 2007 & only 30k, what would you think its worth roughly?

No idea on present values but it will have high road tax after 2006 and the value shouldn't be too high as most these days want something cheap to run so there is little demand for Evos these days.
