For those that bought in the last 3 months...
i have no idea what the cost of my evo was. all i cared about was the monthly payment, but i had a trade in that was financed. my advice is to work at least 2 dealers (or just one and make up **** for the 2nd dealer like i did) and do a credit app. right up front. they will take you much more serious when they see that you CAN afford the car and if you have a high beacon score they can score you a better rate. i went in and told them what i wanted and asked for the credit app. (that got their undivided attention) and told them to sell me a car. they gave me a number (monthly) and i told them it was too high and to call me if they could make it $xxx. when they called with a number i told them i had another dealer beating them by $10/month and to rework the deal if they wanted to sell the car. after 5 or so calls spread over 11/2 days i had them down $37/month (without changing the term of the loan). when i got a number i was satisfied with i told them to print it up and i would be in after work to pick up the car. it was all pretty painless.
