Used Car of the Day: 1999 Mitsubishi Lancer Evo
Today we're bringing you a car from a time when I was still in high school. Now I feel old, thanks to this 1999 Mitsubishi Lancer Evo.
This one has had a bunch of work done in terms of wear-and-tear items, including plugs, coil packs, belts, air filter, brake rotors, pads, tires, and radio.
Apparently this car is only 1 of 572 made in this color.
If you like older Lancers -- and this author generally does -- you can pick it up in SoCal for $38,000. Click here for more.

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.

There is no such thing as an Evo that has been well treated.
Tesla killer.
