It's a shame because their finance guy was really nice and I liked the fact that they were willing to do an HID conversion on it for only $700. But they took advantage of the fact that my credit isn't great and quoted me $33800 OTD for a non/SSL EB. I finally went with a TB w/SSL from Gainesville for $34750 OTD.

Anyway, congratulations on your purchase, I'm glad you got a better deal than they were offering me.
I remeber your post. I was approved for 0% right away, but i almost walked out twice. They wanted to give me 20k for mine and to put down 3300k, i was like "NO DEAL!" and then the manager came out and we talked a bit and told him i could get much better somewhere else with no money down. It came to me getting 21500 for mine and 500 over invoice. They let me take the car home and my old evo is at the lot to have everything swtiched out tomorrow. All u have to do is talked to them, i laughed at the first deal they brough to the table and told them theres no way in hell, and complaint that i drove and hour away for this. The finance guy is awesome, he was really nice.

If they swapped out HIDs from your 03 onto the 05, I wonder how thats going to affect the re-sale of the 03. I mean ppl who are willing to buy a used Evo should know the HIDs came standard on an 03. Anyway, congrats on a freakin sweeet deal!

My mods are:
TBE
Test pipe
mbc
flash
Tein springs
Turbo timer
I heard of this dealer they advertise in GRM. BTW, what was the breakdown on your deal? Invoice price? Dest charge? Tax? etc...

the 05 evo8 puts down more hp to all four wheels than the 03 evo8... stock vs. stock. if you wanna know more, use the magic button SEARCH hehe...

Hi Evil Evo VIII,
I saw you mentioned Radical Ride, and they have an ad in Autoweek, selling a Black Evo. That car looks awesome!.

Dood, thats awesome. I might have to go down to Daytona. What did they have left onthe lot? You think they will switch over cams? My mods and HIDs are the only thing holding me back.
