Unhappy Did you have trouble finding a RA?

I've been searching the internets for a RA Sportback, perhaps for my second car... but everywhere i look (cars.com, autotrader, etc.) there are so little RA's advertised.

did everyone have such a hard time finding a RA when you bought yours?

anybody in the NY/NJ area know of a dealer with RA Sportback (Touring pkg preferred) for sale?

The dealer I bought mine from couldn't give them away. They had five on the lot for a really long time. Of course, this was back in 2009 and we're not a big market for Mitsubishi.

There's a 2010 RA Sportback with the Recaro package on Tom Massano Mitsubishi's web page. They're in reading, PA.

**Edit: There were two within 50 miles of me when I bought mine.

where did you actually got your RA from? I live around that area and I'm looking for a good dealership but it seems like all the dealerships around this area have pretty horrible ratings....

Glendale Mitsubishi, Glendale, CA (California)... they had 0 RAs on their lot, lotso Lancers and a couple of Evos but 0 RAs...

Before they brought a RA to the lot for me to test drive, I convinced them to let me drive a EvoX MR Touring, because I needed to know if the TC-SST would be to my liking before I would get serious about considering the RA

Dealers can find them.. there maybe a delivery fee but you can always negotiate

I went and looked at one last weekend about 20 km's from my house. There is another dealership near my house which has 2. Apparently Canada has lots..
