not that often unless you are doing serious miles. i got my evo 5 last may and up to this point i have done about 5500miles. i had a major service done as soon as i got it and another since then. the only problem i have had really is the incompetance of the previous owner but nothing that you would usually find. :) if i am right its roughly every 4000 miles.... im sure someone will be along to correct me. :D

everyone will tell you the one best to have is the same as the one they own :)

id say buy the one that you can afford to buy, and try get something lower mileage with plenty of service history :)
