Looking for a Decent dealership in PA

Hello guys... i'm currently looking into buying an evo... i've had my eye on them for a lil' while now... I wanted to give a lil' time to see how well these cars held up, as in, if there was any major issues with them... Only thing i've gathered so far is ppl smoking their clutches, due to the mitsu pressure plate or what-not... I've decided that i'm ready for one now... My question is if any of you guys can recommend a good place to purchase one, based on how nice the sales people are, and, how well the service dept takes you changing your own oil and simple, basic upgrades... i'm planning on getting into one as soon as my current car that's in the bodyshop getting finished from a run-in (literally) with a drunk driver... basically, within a month or so... Thanks for your time...

There is also a Mitsi dealer in north Reading on 61 (maybe an hour 15 minutes from Hazelton). I did not buy from them, but they are known as a "small town" dealership and customer friendly. PM me if you need a name and number. And I assume you two are either native Hazelton's or Penn State students/staff?

I bought my OZ from Conicelli down in Plymouth meeting PA just outside of philly. I told them how much i wanted to pay, based on what i found online. They then showed me their Invoice and said "we need to make some money." I offered to give them a couple hundred and they agreed! So i would highly recommend them! The buying process was very very easy and with not much pressure.

I got mine from MotorWorld Mitsu in Wilkes Barre PA. They gave me MSRP back in April when everyone was charging upwards of $7000 and up. Great service from my salesman, Jack. I'm not sure if he's still there.

Thanks guys... i was dealing with motorworld once before... the sales man was incredibly nice, but the service dept was horrible... they were originally telling me that i couldn't even change my own oil, which upset me... And my mother once bought an Galant new from them a few years back... while changing the oil, they forgot to refill the car, when my mom was heading through mountain top back to hazleton, the motor seized up... But after argue'n with their "trained" evo tech and service manager, i was allowed to change my own oil, which i told them i prefer using Royal Purple or Redline and that started a whole different "conversation"...

I've spoken to a Jason from Domiano's, and he seemed nice, and they have the color i'm looking for... I'm gonna head there this week on my days off, and i'll call the other suggested dealerships and speak to their service depts too... thanks alot again guys... and oh yeah, i'm a Native of Hazleton, trying to get away from here... haha

D Ambrosio in Downingtown is very good. Me adn my Brother got both ours there. They have sold like 13, have 2 in stock now, blue and white. Anyway, I dont get my oil done there or simple maintenance cause ALL dealers charge too much. My buddy does all my **** for like 10$ and a few big macs from my parents McDys. But they have had to do some minor work and justing on my car with my current mods, no ???'s asked they did them. Never have I been charged a penny there. Also great guys, i can hook you up with the salesmans name. He is a friend of mine and sold my bro's and mine ot us. He would treat you right!!!
