'06 RA...What did you pay?
'06 RA...What did you pay?
Hey everyone. I'm in the process of getting a line of credit to purchase a new Pheonix Red Ralliart with the Sun and Sound Package. Im positive I will get approved. The sticker is $21,724 but there's no way Im walkin out paying full sticker. There is currently a factory cash rebate of $2000 on any new 06 Lancer. Inspite of all thats goin on between the dealer and I, I just wanted to know what everyone else around here (USA) payed for their RA new whether its an 04', 05' or 06'. I've searched the threads, but I've only found recent Canadians buying RAs. Im looking for a total of what you paid Out The Door. Thanks for your input. It is much appreciated. 
I hope everything goes well and I have my RA here in my driveway within a week.

Back in December '05 when I got mine brand new, I paid less than $14k out the door including trading in my '96 Monte Carlo Z34 that wouldn't even run (threw a rod right through the head - would cost me more to repair than the entire car was worth). They even sent a tow truck to my place to get the Monte that I was trading in. 
I didn't finance a single cent of it and ended up walking out the door paying less than what I had offered them in the first place when I walked in. Damn, I'm a good negotiator.
Oh yeah - I also got zero of the extra options as well. Just went with the regular ole MT w/o S&S or any of the extended warrany stuff. It's about as base model as you can get for a RA.
