Trying to Buy an Evo... my saga
I have been a lurker on the board for a couple of weeks now getting information - I am interested in purchasing a new Evo (there are a few left in the area!). I have visited five dealerships - I don'tthink I have met one decent sales guy yet!
At most places the lack of knowledge and bad attitude are incredible! One place I went to that looked promising had a new '05 MR on the lot - thought it was go until the sales kid tells me about how he takes it out and hammers it!
Any really good places to buy in MA? Looks like I am getting an '06...
I have been to shops in Attelboro, Norwood, Natick, danvers and Manchester NH...
thanks!

Have you checked out Herb Connolly yet? They mostly sell Hyundai but they should be able to get you an Evo as they still sell a few Mitsubishis. I had a really good experience there with Brian Barnett (I think that is his name). I also know there is a guy who is a service advisor at the Malden Mitsubishi dealer, and I think one more member (Forget the name it's TSi-something) is the parts manager at Danvers mitsubishi.

you could check out the green lighted list thread https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...ht=green+light of good mitsu dealers. it is not very long yet, surprise surprise, so maybe check the black listed thread https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...ht=green+light and use the process of elimination. that one is long ofcourse.
