Is $33,500 a good price for a new 2006 Evo SE?
A dealer in Minneapolis is selling a brand new 2006 Evo SE for $33,500. How does that price compare to what y'all are seeing in other parts of the country? I'm about ready to pull the trigger....

Were you looking for an '05 GG MR in July of '05? I was, and due to the laws of supply and demand, I was able to find one in Delaware for $40K. I looked from Maine to Virginia, and found ONE!. Do I think I was ripped off? No, I got the car I wanted. Paid a bit more than I really wanted, but I wanted the car more. So please place you comment in context next time.

The SE has a five speed, the MR has a six. The SE doesn't have the vortex generator fins. They both have the light weight BBS wheels and aluminum roof. Not sure if the SE has the inverted Blisteins like the MR. I'll check with the dealer again tomorrow. Here's a description from autoblog.com:
Mitsubishi has introduced the 2006 Lancer Evolution "Special Edition" as the final iteration of the Evo IX before the long awaited Evo X replaces it. The Evolution SE will ride the line out in style with red-stitched Recaro seats inside the cabin and a host of exterior enhancements. The Evolution SE gets a new airdam extension up front that reduces front end lift and the same lightweight aluminum roof worn by the Evolution RS and MR. It rolls on 17-inch forged BBS wheels with a diamond black finish and illuminates the road ahead with a set of HID headlights. The price of the Evolution SE will start at $33,249, which places it neatly above the standard Evo IX and below the range-topping MR.

Mitsubishi Motors North America (MMNA) is applying the "Special Edition"; treatment to its critically acclaimed ninth-generation Lancer Evolution. The 2006 Lancer Evolution SE offers special features at a competitive price of $33,249 MSRP to make this legendary performance vehicle even more thrilling. The new SE trim level represents the final enhancement to a Lancer Evolution body style that has been on sale in the U.S. market since 2003.
Inside the Special Edition trim level, supportive, red-stitched RECARO(R) seats accentuate the interior while the exterior receives a new front airdam extension that adds style while reducing front end lift. A lightweight aluminum roof panel, also found on the Lancer Evolution RS and MR, helps control body roll by lowering the vehicle's center of gravity. The feather weight 17"; forged BBS(R) alloy wheels, now in a new "Diamond Black"; finish, add style while reducing unsprung weight to improve suspension performance. The SE trim level also includes high-intensity discharge (HID) headlights with halogen fog lamps giving the vehicle a distinctive look. The available exterior color choices for the Lancer Evolution SE are Apex Silver, Graphite Gray and Tarmac Black.
True to the Lancer Evolution's heritage, the SE is powered by a 2.0-liter inline four-cylinder DOHC intercooled-turbocharged engine with Mitsubishi Innovative Valve timing and Electronic Control (MIVEC) that is mated to a rugged 5-speed transmission.
The revised airdam, Recaro(R) seats with red stitching, and forged BBS(R) wheels with "Diamond Black"; finish are available on the MR trim level as well in the form of an Appearance Package which sells for $500.00.
