When I showed interest in the Evo scene,only 03 models were out so I went to the dealer and test drove a yellow one for 10 miles.They did not have a silver with no sunroof so bought it some where else.When it came to trade the 03 for an 06 MR none were in stock but they had a IX 5 speed and they said I could try but didn't care.To me there weren't enough differences,but the 6 speed with bilsteins justified the one week wait!By the way I purchased the IXMR with 5 miles.

When I was shopping for my EVO, many dealerships looked at me thinking I was a young kid trying to act serious.

I even had to go to the extent of waving my checkbook and friggin bank statements (showing I had the friggin cash on hand to make a strong downpayment) in their faces in order for them to take me seriously.

I also will admit that I was a picky and tough customer as well, being that I have pretty much been in sales, customer service all my life I kinda knew both sides of the coin, how to negotiate from a customers point of view, and how to make a sale from a salesman point of view....

I was even such a pain in the *** at one Mitsubishi dealer that the sales manager even cursed me out in the middle of the friggin showroom as I was walking out of the dealership... He even told me please dont come back... lol...

My local dealer have an 06 IX MR with 120 miles in there and I refuse to buy that one, they even offer me an $1K off.
So I have them look for an better one, 2 weeks later. I got the IX MR with only 3 miles.
They have an black IX GSR for me to test drive but I did not have the time to test drive it though.
