Thats not bad at all especially for this area. Those are the going prices for an MR and finances rates are normal for 6-9% throught the dealer. You may be able to talk it down a few thousand but that does look like a ballpark figure.

If you cant pay for a car in full up front then don't get it because you cant afford it. financing something that deprecates at a rate that a car does is pure stupidity especially an evo due to big deprecation second you drive it off the lot/ high insurance cost and maintenance. Do you ever want be financially secure in your life? then don't be like congress, behave yourself in fiscally responsible manner.

Free your self for the matrix!

What are you talking about , just about every single new car that leaves the lot is financed. Does that mean almost no one can afford a new car?

I can buy the car if i want for cash, but i rather keep that money in my savings account than pay for the car in full.

Not all but a lot yes, its a very simple if you don't have the money to buy it you cant afford it. If you loan money ex.. and are not fiscally responsible you can dig your self into a big hole. SO yes many Americans are fiscally retarded just look at are congress any time you spend more money than is coming in your running at a deficit.

Some of these posts are just plain ignorant. Some people just think financing means you cannot afford a car.

Hey 'Arkow', use a credit union or your bank that you've built a good rep with. Putting down $15k will go a long way to making your monthly payments lower. With good credit and a decent APR you should be paying way less than $400 per month.

TechnoJunkie. keep saving.... in about five years you will be able to buy an EVO cash..........get a clue dude, without people financing major purchases like this, where would we be? like you....riding a bike?????

YOu rather keep your money in a savings account that is about one of the most retarded things i have heard all day, your savings account will yield less then the interest on the lone so your better off pay in full up front.

There is couple of reasons why i wouldnt pay for the car in full. First is, when you paying off a laon you build your credit, incase you wanna buy a house in the future or anything else for that matter, i rather have money on the side that i can use incase of an emergency..to each his own, i respect your opinion, if u think that paying in full is good, than good for you. When i bought me lexus i paid some money down and then paid everything off with 2 years cause i had some extra money coming in.

for someone w/ that much in savings i find it uncalled for as to how naive you are in finding adequate financing means...first of all, if you buy an evo local you're not too keen on the offers available you on this site period - w/ shipping and everything you're gonna get one hell of a deal from south coast mitsu on the west coast, by now you should know what you want, and their inventory should be well moret than capable of satisfying your needs... and for the loan, just go to a credit union - open an account and get a loan w/ a great apr...

Why dont you just go pay cash for an VIII and call it a day? VIII's have already depreciated enough to where you wont loose much money.

Daytona Mitsu is where I got mine. Easy, fast and they delivered it across state to me for free.

They matched the Cali prices so I bought it from them.

What ?

1. Theres a very low percent of people who actually pay for cars in full Its sort of foolish cause you loose so much cash due to depriciation. If you get a decent interest rate it doesnt pay not to finance it
2. An auto loan is not a debt. The car is worth somthing get rid of the car get rid of the payments DUH
3. The EVO holds its value just as well or better than any car I can think of. 2003 EVO brand new in 03 28k- 30k depending on the dealer. A used 03 40k on the clock 20k-22k not to shabby mate. I see BMWs that cant hold value like that
