$41,000 for a white IX mr

Hello EVOM,
WEll i thought i update you guys with my situation, I was so ready to buy a wicked white evo IX MR when the dealer guy told me that i would have to pay an extra 5000 to get it and on top of that the car will have 400 miles on it because it will be driven back from another state...so i sit there and i think... and i think... and i think ...and finally i say...no i don't think it's worth it to pay 41000 for an MR with 400 miles on it...he say that there is no white MR's in the midwest at all...so i say that's cool...the dealer i talked with is pretty cool...although i think he would be a bit cooler if he sold it to me at msrp... but sometimes things don't go the way you wnat them to go...so since they don't have IX WW MR, i asked for a Tarmac Black IX and Yes again...I will wait for it...so right now i will be looking into a tarmac black IX without SSL, I think i'll just convert the HID since so many people have done it and it worked well...another option i have is this....A 2005 tarmac black evo 8 for 24,999 wihout ssl and a 2001 honda S2000 for 10,995...so a brand new evo or two great cars? what do you guys think?

Wow, I think getting those 2 cars would be far more worth the money. How many miles on the 05 TB Evo?

I'd go for the Evo VIII depending on milage and mods. You can use all that extra money to make a pretty quick lil 4 banger

hey guys,
the evo 8 has 9,000 miles and is completely stocked...and the s2000 has 60,000 miles on it...it's my co-worker's car, she is selling it for a Infiniti g35. I would love both cars but then again...choices...owning a IX would feel much better...i think...so my mind is set on the IX and thanks for all your replies...

Don't get in a hurry and get the shaft man.. I know it's hard to do but hang in there

I'd get the IX. although it would be nice to have the s2000 as a beater

Which dealer in MN did you go to? Metro Mit, Bloomington sales men are kinda pushy. They tried to sell me a 05 evo ssl at sticker when there were 06 evos on their lot. I ask them to stop BSing with me and give me their lowest price and they said sticker. They had me laughing when they said someone was willing to pay sticker for it and would not give it to me for sticker. So when I tried to get up and leave they try and make a deal with me but I told them it was too late because I already told them to stop playing games at the beginning and just left. Bought and evo from Brookdale Mits for a decent price.
