I can get a great deal on a new 2008 EvoX but I just dont now if I should waste the extra money on a 2010 X.

Also what model is more MOD friendly GSR or MR?

 

GSR is more mod friendly depending on how much power you want.

I like the 2010 for one main reason. The LED display is awesome. Some may say it's stupid but that's what you see 95% of the time.

 

the tails on the 2010 are much nicer along with that cluster IMO...if you can get a killer deal on the 2008 along with better financing go for it. but the 0% financing i believe is over.

 

0.0% is available on 2010 on Mitsubishi's website as of this evening. UNLESS the 08 is 8K off, I would go with the 2010. 0.0% actually new, improvements to center gauge with color display new blacked out tails, and improved SST mapping (if you are looking at MR) have its 0-60 at 4.6 seconds. In fact for all of those reasons I bought a 2010 over an 08.

Either way welcome to the community!

 

I just don't know wich one to chose lol.

 

Test drive both. See what you like. But dont forget, a new car is a new car. A brand new 2008 is actually a 2 year old model which keeps on getting raped with depreciation every day it sits on the lot.

 

i dont think you'll be happy with the old led display after seeing the new one.. it's really nice

 

The financing terms on the 2010 are for 36 months @ 0%, not the full 60 months. So be aware of that.

There should be a significant markdown on the 2008. I think a "new" 2008 base GSR should sell for around $26k excluding taxes. NADA has a low miles 2008 GSR estimated at $28k.

Personally, I would try to get a smoking deal on a 2008 (maybe $26k out the door?) and have them throw in some goodies like oil changes and a detail or two. The total cost of ownership would be far less for essentially the same car/performance. LED display notwithstanding.

 

i stand corrected...good eye. i've been checking their site religiously and it just came up. although its only for 36 months and it says the offer Ends 6/02/08? either way, a 48 month loan would be more manageable, so we'll see.

but go for the 2010...2+ years is a lot of time for a car to be just sitting there.

 

What about recalls?

 

For 2010, anyone know if you can now order the MR interior for the GSR, or order the new MR Touring leather interior for a GSR? I would think in the 2nd year of production that more variety is available when ordering these cars from the dealer. Thanks for the info.

 

get a used 2008 if you dont wanna get ripped off from the stealerships on ****ing you over for a 2010.

 

Also the 2010 have better side skirts on base kit.

 

^^^ those might contribute to better gravel protection coming off the front tire, but I wouldn't say they look better.

on topic, I'd say a 2010 may have more value to the buyer at this point, especially that the zero percent 5 year loan offer has been withdrawn on 2008's, they really are used cars now, plus a couple of improvements on the '10's.

 

Maaaaaaaann just got mine a 2 weeks ago Should've known bout the offer!!!
