Isn't "Evolution" just a performance package offered by Mitsubishi. Like right now we have the Lancer Evolution. They also offered the Pajero (Montero) Evolution in the past. I'm sure they will bring it back eventually. To me, Evolution is kind of like Dodge's "SRT" in a way.
My best advice is shop around and know how far you're willing to go for an Evo. I spoke to plenty of other dealers AFTER I bought my car that said they would give me a better deal, of course they say that after the fact.
You can use TRUECAR, but remember it has to apply to IN STOCK cars, so you will have to negotiate with the dealership that currently has the Evo. I could have got my 2014 MR with just an accessories package for $35,500 if I was willing to drive it 500 miles back, but I was also dealing with a trade and that's a little more complicated. I took a $2500 hit on the price of the Evo to sell my trade for what I wanted and have them truck it back instead.
Dealerships are willing to definitely sell both the 2014 and 2015 for a good price, you just have to find the right dealership and be open to color and options. It gets harder when you start choosing a year, color, and options, once dealers know you want specific things and knowing the limited availability on specifics, they can use that against you.

I laughed hysterically when they mentioned the mark up then just hung up on them. I ended up getting an amazing deal at another dealership thru diligence and patience.

At least was until they dissolved.

Shame about the Recaros....
I actually joined this forum so that I can sell mine.
Don't want to take this too off topic, so please PM me if you're a 2015 buyer and want genuine Recaros from a 2010 Evo X in great condition.
