I am still on the fence about getting a evo x mr as my first lacer seeing as I was gonna get a regular 08 lancer with a 2.0 but then it took a little while to pool my funds and they came out with a 2.4 for the regular lancer and now that I have seen the MR that is definatly the one I want but I think I am gonna wait to see if they do something like out a bigger engine (go from 2.0 to 2.4) and also to see of they do something different for 09 just to be safe and if they dont then I guess i can look at the bright side in the fact that I may be able to get a better deal on an 08 MR since they will be trying to make room for the 09s

I've talked to many dealers around Chicago and the pricing doesn't vary much. $700ish below MSRP is what they are offering. I'm holding out for a bit longer to see what happens. I know that the MR is my next vehicle, but I can't stomach paying 40K+ for it, even though I think it's worth it. Rumor is there won't be any 09's that will drop the price, but I think time will still bring it down some more. I'm betting as summer fades and a few months of them sitting on lots will pull the price down. I wonder if the GSRs are already at their rock bottom price though?

I think that looks like a good deal. You can probably get the price down a little more also. Get a preapproved loan from pentagon financing and walk in ready to buy for 1K less. The loan is also 4.5%!

[QUOTE=beast53;5966956]I'm lookin at this right now, you think this is a steal? socalmitsu gave me a quote for like $50 less for the same car.
No way! That is definately NOT a steal or a deal.... There are GSR fully loaded for 33,500 and they are dropping.. I'm hoping for MR's to be at the 35K range in about 5 months... I'd say wait till Nov/Dec and pick up a new GSR (08) fully loaded for around 33K... You'll see..
