What do you call expensive?, I got a GG regular EVO9 yesterday for $31.400 plus TAX and Reg, it came with tint windows to.

I don't think the EVO9 is expensive for the car ytou are getting. My friend got a EVO8 last month and when I compare it with my EVO9 you get a whole lot on the Evo 9 for just $400 more.

How much did you pay for yours?

You got to drive the Evo 9 first. The shifting is real good.

The only way I can see you paying $42000 is if you got the 06 MR plus had the dealer putting the ssl package and tons of accesories, and that includes the prices OTD.

$42000 is ridiculous.. where did you get it? where are you located?, we paid $31400 plus Tax and reg here in Tucson..
