OK.......im looking to get into an Evo before they disappear. I love the 4g63 motor and the car is pure amazing. I went to the dealer and they have 2 silver new 06 MRs (one SE and one non SE) on the lot yet. I asked them to run numbers and see what it would take to get me into one. Id be trading in my 95 cavalier (i didnt pay a dime for it so dont bash me.......it was free).

price (non SE)- 34000
trade- 1300

comes out to around 570/month for 84 months........is that about what you guys pay? I can afford it but I just wanted to make sure they werent taking me across.

Let me know.....thanks
Chris

I'm sure you could get them down on the price. Is the price the same for the MR and SE?

They said they'd go to 34k on the non SE and the SE would probably be a little higher.

You know what I never did ask the exact APR on it. Im figuring about 5-7 % looking at the other numbers.

I wish I knew they'd still have them in two months so I can get some other things paid off........oh well if I want one I might just have to pay the price!!

Ive sorta put it off for a while.....ive been looking since last august trying to get everything else paid off before committing to buying one. Last thursday I went in to see what they were asking for them and they already dropped the price twice.......originally it was $680/mo for 72

Can I ask what are the monthly payments you guys are paying??

Everybodies payments are going to vary due to the amount of down payment, credit score and if they were able to get the dealer to lower the price. What you gotta do is, go in with a set price in mind. Tell the salesman and they will probably come down in price but not match the price you have in mind. Then, start walkin. They may chase you down and try to give you a better price. It's all a game. And the price will depend on how well you play it. I bought mine used. But I got them to drop almost 8 grand off the price they were asking.

The more years the more interet your paying on the car and not the actual premium. So say if u wanted to sell it after 2 years you would probably owemore on it than you bought it for 2 yrs ago. Thats a huge payment for a 7 year loan. Think about your future and 7 years from now what you could of been doing instead of paying off a car like that. If you have alot of money then put a better down pymnt.

Yeah, I used to be a tech at a dealership and I'd see all the games the salesmen played. I really want to get the car but its a HUGE investment. I told them already twice that I only wanna pay 480 (do you think thats too low??) I dont mind paying for 84 months.....er......at least I dont think I will....hahaha. As I said before I wish they were still making them so I could get this other stuff paid for and order one like I wanted to.

34k is way more than what I was getting for pricing around here.

The SE I would think between 29 and 31 is a fair price.

Then you should know better than to talk payments and not the price for the car!
They will screw around with the numbers, and you will end up getting raped.
Try to get a good price on the car with a good APR, and try to put a good down payment. It seems that you really can not afford this car right now in your life.

That is way to much and 84 fricken months you gota be kiddin me

You did look at the final price right? 570 x 84 = $47,880 15k more for a car because your impatient. Don't forget you need to pay for full insurance if you are getting into this kind of loan and i am guess it will be a lot.

read that website it will save you a TON of cash

Call your bank, call your credit union...shop the interest rate...buy one thats 12-18mos old and knock 5k off the number..Sure there is some risk...but hey you asked for a solution.. FYI--I bought mine used and its great..

also call about isurance, find out how much that will cost
570 for 84 = 47880 that is what it will cost so I will say no
way to much money
if you cant pay for it in 36 mo them you dont need the car.
