When I was calling around 3 weeks ago:

Shelton Mistu in CT wanted 2500 over MSRP
Ramsey Mitsu in NJ wanted 3000 over MSRP

Dont know what the case is now that they are actually hitting though

LOL! Here we go again, called around here in CT also Shelton didnt call me back(shocker) talked to some great dealers outside Fairfield CTY MSRP is doable, even A couple hundred under...

I want to see and drive the darn thing before I buy! They will come down, it is just a car!

Eventually dealers like with 03's will be hurting to sell! heck there is 1 on ebay for msrp already!

Appleway Mitsu in Spokane had a minimal mark up and offered me a very good sight unseen trade value on my 8 (ask for Ken). I chose not to invest but they kept me very informed as the car shipped and when they finally got the order sheet.

The local Olympia Mitsu dealer is a idiot: Quoted $45K taking orders now and plan on 3 to 4 months, maybe, possibly, who knows.....................

Concord Mitsubishi in Concord, CA is selling an MR for $40,000, that's not the OTD price either. That's why I would never buy a car there. I guess living in the SF Bay area I accept having to pay more for stuff, but that is a joke.

The M3 is my wife's car..... so I don't drive it very often. I actually HATE that car. I love the MR!!!! I wish I'd have gotten an EVO sooner. My GSX would stomp the M3, it was that much faster. The GSX handled like a tractor compared to the M3 and I think the EVO handles better than the M3. I have not gotten on the MR real hard yet, but it already feels like it would probably hang with the GSX.

No, I realize that, but the sales guys that I have dealt with with are jerks. I went there approximately 1 month ago and asked about the MR and I was told they would not be in the US for 6 months.....he then told me their dealship sells more EVO's then anybody. I just wonder to who?

They have a cool service guy (Rick Durbin, not sure if he still works there) but, the sales guys rub me the wrong way. They are very dismissive, not very freindly, and not knowledgeable at all in my opinion. But, I guess they don't need me to buy any cars from them, they sell more Evo's than anybody!!!
