Fireball: I've heard that a pretty large number of dealers complained that their margins on new 
's are too narrow.
Is this increase also scheduled to happen for all the other cars in the line-up? I know PO'd a bunch of dealers when they unloaded inventory from the factory on them.
has some fence mending to do here.

Im suspecting the reason for the $105.40 price increase is because the car needed alot of revisions, and it ended up to the point where the car needed to be "revalued".

will never have the margins of something like Ford or GM.
Yeah, Mitsu would have to make some crap cars to be like Ford or Generic Motors. And the Mitsu dealers I know would be glad, not mad, to have a bunch of Evos to sell. The Evo distribution was based on customer-feedback forms (Mitsu and JD Power) to determine which dealers got how many Evos.

This is probably bull , but i was told today by my dealer ,that trade in on my evo is 20,000. This makes no sense to me , but that is what they said. so i certainly hope the value is shown to be more when kelly blue book and nada catch up.

I won't believe this until there's proof.

I thought they only had 6500 allocated for this year, and they aren't selling that well. I'd bet there are only about 4000 sold so far and thats being optimistic.
