Invoice 03 or wait till 04?

im just coming out of a car that i put a lot of money into... a 2000 GTI VR6 with a turbo setup i put together. New to DSM's, but not to the performance world. I can get the car next week, or i can wait till the 04's come out. i dont want to wait, but i will if something exciting is going to be changed for 04. HELP ME!

If you can really buy it at invoice, thats a 2500 dollar or so savings over msrp!!! Watch the interest rate though... current mitsu buy-rates are at like 3.5 % if you have excellant credit, you should be able to get below 5 % interest rate. Buy one silly!!

Man I am in the same predicament but I just don't want to get a new car just before the winter. It's not so much a concern about getting it dirty but that I will have to buy winter tires right away. I was planning on waiting to spring and then have spring, summer, and fall of 2004 before getting winter tires.

Good choice As chinalfr said, the word is that there are no changes for the new model year. It will definitely be a slight step up from an '84 rabbit!! You will definitely want winter tires in your area, the stock tires are excellent dry road tires but are like skis in the snow.

well my last car was a VR6 turbo, so power delivery will be different, but i dont think i will be amazed with power right out of the box. handling will be much improved though. Im going to use my rabbit for much of my winter commuting, and just use the EVO for days where there is little snow on the ground.

SOON
