This is to all the CO guys.

How much did you end up paying OTD for your Evo and at what dealer was it at?

 

2005 VIII - $28700 plus taxes, etc (sorry, don't have total figure on me)
2006 IX MR (WW) - $32500 plus taxes, etc (friend's car)

Skyline Mitsu, on 104th
http://www.skylinemitsubishi.com

Let me know if you want a good deal there, they have:

Silver MR
Black IX
Blue IX

They are getting two grey MRs in within the next two weeks, and another, don't know the trim level or colour.

No, I don't work there!

 

damn, thats all they have? So we can pretty much forget about invoice pricing?

 

Last year I payed 30 for a GSR with SSL, which was 1k below invoice. But that was also an 04 that they hadn't sold from the year before. Around here, I'd say if you can get pretty close to invoice, you've done well.

 

They usually only stock three at a time. They seem to be more of an Eclipse dealership - they have a tonne of '07 Spyders in at the moment.

 

so is there another CO dealership that carriers more Evo's?

 

i think all of them do. you can always look up the nearest dealer and call before you head down

 

WHA? how the hell did your buddy get a brand new IX MR for nearly $4,000 UNDER MSRP?

Arapahoe Mitsu had an 06 IX GG MR marked $4000 ABOVE MSRP, so it totalled over $40k!!! I had a hell of a time talking them down to just MSRP before I was willing to buy it.

He must have got a serious "buddy hookup" or something, thats not normal to get a $4k discount on a brand new MR, thats $2k below invoice... Was it damaged or had too many miles to be considered new?

To the original post- I ended up paying MSRP for a GG IX MR from Arapahoe Mitsu.. The sales guys there wre really cool (Justin and Matt) and actually know what they're talking about. All my financial stuff I handled directly with the financing manager. Evos aren't terribly common in Co, I RARELY see others on the road, typically only at meets.

 

There's only one thing I want to say about Skyline Mitsubishi........ I want them out of business.

Their service department sucks, their parts department is clueless and they will void your warranty if you put an exhaust on because they are clueless. The dealership as a whole is clueless.

 

I have yet to deal with them myself, but I've heard good things about the guys at Arapahoe Mitsu. There was a thread on awdpirates.net praising the service dept.

 

That is why you go to the cheapest dealer for price, then take it to the best dealer for service.

 

I bought mine in Kansas, way cheaper and you can break it in on the way home It was 6k cheaper in Kansas than Colorado at the time (I think that covered the plane ticket!)

 

interesting, which dealership?

 

It was in Manhattan Ks.

don't use me a reference, they were not happy when I left I got their first ever EVO and "IceSlidinFool" got the second which is now a Formula D drift car

I called every dealership in the west (I kid you not) back in 2002 to line up my car and Kansas was the best deal.

 

thanks. I'll give them a call.
