Question When do you guys think the best month to get a really good deal on an EVO

Im interested in the 05's and I know they are not out yet or very few are out so now is not a great time to get a deal (I think). Im curious to know when is the best time of the year to catch the wave.

THANKS

yeah but not for a new model. i got my 05 w/ ssl for 34.2K-MSRP. In hawaii, the same car retails for about 39k but i got mine from cali and had it shipped. if you shop around, you'll get agood deal cause there is always some dealer who over-preordered and has lots of stock on hand.The reason that end of the month is good is cause dealers finance cars too. in hawaii, you can always tell the age of the car by looking at the safety sticker on the rear bumper. 1=jan, 12=dec etc. anyway, most dealers will want to get rid of a car that has been sitting on the lot for months. if you can find out this info, then you will have an advantage but the main thing is NEGOTIATE, and shop around.

Don't get me wrong about getting it at the end of the month and all, but you get ripped off on the price. I would say wait awhile, get it next year, and save a couple grand. If not I under stand if you can't wait.

Did you get your keys yet???

If not let me know

Oh yea the last day of the month is the best day. That's when I give the best deal to try and make my bonus. Also take in consideration, if your looking for a certain color some one else may too.

$28.5 K OTD for an RS is good. I got my 04 GSR for $29.5 K OTD includ. gap insurance.
I bought it just before the 05 models arrived. Basically I got it for about $1100 under invoice through a special "vendor deal". Not sure if that was for Michigan only, but if you worked for the Big 3, you get the special price. No SSL package. Don't want leather, but would have liked the moonroof.
