Finally got my Evo on the East Coast, NC

Hello all,

Well I am glad to say I am one of the lucky few to get an Evo in my area. You may have noticed that the dealers in my area stopped gouging and started only asking for sticker. As soon as I heard that I jumped on the ball. Well to make a long story short, I ended up purchasing the car from Leith Mitsubishi in Cary, NC. I must say that I enjoyed working with them there. My salesman was Robert. If you stop by, tell him smanders sent you.

Well once the local dealers lowered their price, they went like hotcakes. I am not sure the official count, but ALL of the Evos in my area were sold with in 48 hours. I got the second to last one from Leith and luckily it was exactly what I wanted.

I do still have my S2000 for now. It is still for sale. If you know anybody in the market, its a real deal. I would keep the S2000 but since I don't have a 3 car garage, it would be unjust .

Here are some pics:

Way to go bro! What are your opinion(s) on the evo, in comparison to your Honda. Total different ballpark I am assuming!

Actually I found out tonight they still have a Red for sale at MSRP. Ask for Robert and tell them that smanders sent you.

Good Luck,
smanders

This break in period is killing me. Once I get 600 miles on the od and a few spirited drives under my belt, I will give a thorough comparison. Right now I have 270 miles with in 2 days....

Would like too hear you about the big differences between them....

Say something when you get past the 600 miles on it
