Fake EVO IIs in Hickory, NC

Hello... new here... but I just had to show you guys what one of the local dealerships is doing. This is Mike Everett Mitsubishi in Hickory, NC.





In addition to the ungodly tacky stickers on the side, the "heat vent" on the hood is nothing but a (poorly placed) sticker.

So, anybody know who to contact at MMC about these things? I can't imagine they'd think too highly of them.... since it would constitue false advertisement, considering the EVO II was a real car. It's one thing for somebody to put the stickers on there themselves.... but for a dealership to do it and sell it as such.... ehh, not good, man.

That's the worst "impersonation" I've ever seen.

Brand spankin' new. Oddly enough, they have an EVO VIII on lot, sitting behind the service area instead of on the showroom floor where it should probably be. $5k over MSRP
