Employee Pricing by Mitsu?

Has anybody been offered this yet? I received a letter in the mail yesterday from a local dealer stating they would sell me a Mitsu at employee pricing, plus applicable rebates and 0% financing. I'm waiting on a call from the salesman I talked to a week ago. I tried him last night and he was off. I'll let ya'll know what he says.

That's what I figure. They sent me the letter because I tried to buy an MR from them a few weeks ago(they couldn't get one for me). They got a quote for my trade and know I'm only interested in a new EVO, so we'll see.

I'll definitely let you know M00kiE.

Just a follow-up: I read the letter again, and it says "any new vehicle in stock," which to me includes the EVO. This isn't a Mitsu thing, per se, but a dealership thing.

I'll keep ya'll updated.

That's just a gimmick. There is no Mitsu employee pricing for everyone. Only if you're an actual employee.

This is the correct sales strategy. The guy I bought my car from said it was the "Mitsubishi employee price." Number quoted was a few hundred above invoice so I did buy the car. It's ussually more of a no haggle gimmick but it was nice not to have to do the back and forth on the evo.

Correct. Actual employee pricing is hundreds below invoice.

Actually it is about $1500 below invoice with a automatic Loyalty rebate of $500.00

Except they don't have the loyalty rebate anymore.

It's only for former lease-ees and DOP customers.

Well here's the update: I went to the dealership (West Loop) to see what the deal was. After 45 min. of haggling with them, I got them down to $500 over invoice (they started at $35414 ). I told them this didn't sound much like employee pricing. They were going to give me a whopping $18.5K for my trade-in (03 EVO 30K miles, nothing wrong). After telling them my car was worth more, I had them look it up and low and behold, they went up to $21K. I just got fed up with them and said no thanks.
