The prices always depends on your area and the competition. The dealerships know how high they can go without you having to go out of area. Sometimes its worth traveling to another city/state. Sometimes its not.
I paid $33,800 (before ttl) for my 2012 GSR. We have 3 dealerships here. The other 2 dealerships were coming in higher and have a horrible service department. So for San Antonio Texas, $33,800 was the best in my area. If I was willing to travel then I may have got it for cheaper. But I also was financed at a pretty good rate because the local dealerships have good relations with the local banks.
My point being is compare the price offered to the competition around your area. Dont compare it to the US competition. Unless you are willing to travel to go and get it and ofcourse factor in that cost to your overall total

I've bought 2 vehicles in San Antonio instead of Austin just because of SSFCU. Here in Austin, my rates on two mazdas were quoted around 8 or 9%. In San Antonio, one week later with the same credit score, I was able to land around 4%. Contrary to popular belief, you are totally correct about a municipality having some influence on the interest rate. I've had this happen to me twice already.
I was also financed through SSFCU when I bought my 2011 Mitsu Outlander Sport. This was at 3.7%.
I then traded in the Outlander for the Evo and again SSFCU financed me at 3.6% this time.
Not sure why but SSFCU seems to offer really good rates. I have a bank account with them but dont use it. I have had San Antonio Federal Credit Union (SACU) for over 13 years now. I have all my direct deposits go into that bank account. I have a good chunk of money in my savings account. And they could not get close to SSFCU's rates.

That might be a no go then. The Evo has been my 4th new Mitsu purchase. And I went through hell with my Eclipse Spyder convertible top which is why they honored their customer loyalty. Generally speaking there is not much rebates or incentives on the Evo. Never really has been. The car usually sales itself. The dealerships in my area dont really bargain much on the Evo either. In San Antonio Tx we have about 1.4 million people. 3 dealerships. And about 4 Evo's to chose from. If they dont sale the car to you they are confident they will sale it to someone else

How low do you think I could go with buying a 2012 GSR with SS and SL packages? I've seen lots of cars online with just the SS package going for 33-34k. I'm assuming I can get my dealer to sell me a car for 35-36k with the added SL package.
A little worried since someone I know purchased their Evo X from the same dealer with only the SS package for 35k.
