I was in Van Nuys visiting my sister so i stopped into MILLER MITSUBISHI on Van Nuys blvd.
I pull up and they have SEVEN evo's, and this a small dealer so im like sweet. they also had a evo 8 rs used, checked it out, 30k miles 27k dollars!! now i knew this was overpriced, but figured, eh, new ones probably arent much more. I have never been more wrong.
This salesman strolls out, walking like he has a stick up his ***, and introduces himself. He is about 18 years old, says "what do you want to check out" i say, "those over there (point to the evo 9's). I said i wanted to see a gsr, he goes "lets go inside, its cooler" which I knew meant hey, i have an mr inside and my SUPER SMART 18 year old brain thinks it can convince you to buy that.
We walk in, i get in the evo, and the interior is WAYYYYYYY better than i imagined, looked just as good as the sti interior. But i tell him, i want the se or gsr, i dont want to pay 34 k. so we walk around the car and i see the sticker, 35k, then i look to the right, I recognized it right away, a dealer mark up form. Im thinking, uh oh, this can't be good, roll my eyes down the sheet 45k DOLLARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! about a 10k DOLLAR MARK UP!!!!!!!!!!!!! go outisde, SE 42K DOLLARS!!!!GSR 41K DOLLARS!!!!!
So i tell the guy, you guys are kidding right? he says "no, we cant keep these on the lot, we can charge what we want." i say "really, because i see seven here and its the weekend and im the only person here". Then i say, "these cars are at least 6 months old right, i mean they are 2006's and its the fourth month of 2007", he says "no, these were just built they are from japan!! i say what the hell does being from japan have to do with when they were built? he doesn't answer that question and starts to ask me when i want to buy the car. I tell him never, not at that price, he says "dont worry about the price" wtf, what else would i worry about?
So then i say "look, lets go inside, i will show you online that i can buy this exact car new for 27k", he says "we don't have any rebates", i say "i know, i didn't say you did, lets go look at your computer." Then he says "i don't want to look at my computer" , im like ok this guy is a total idiot. Then he says "you know, i have to feed my family" wtf, like thats my job?? rip me off so you can feed your family.
At this point the general manager (who is 20 max) comes out and asks me if i can afford the insurance, im like jesus these *******s pop out of that office like diarreah. then i just say "well can i test drive the car or what?" i didn't figure they would let me, but the tool comes back and says "yeah, but not until you sign the paperwork" i say, "you mean the paperwork that makes me the owner, if i sign that im pretty sure i can drive it whenever i want." then i just laughed in their faces for about 20-30 seconds and took off.
So, long story short, don't go to Miller Mitsubishi on Van Nuys in Van Nuys, CA. oh yeah, GO DODGERS!!

P.S. im pretty sure im going to get the evo, somewhere else obviously, so i'll be around here alot in the coming months, can't wait to get my car!!
