So I am currently looking to buy my first Evo. I have a 2004 Acura RSX Type S that I bought brand new in 2004 and it's time to move on! Looking for some thoughts/advice on my offer. I am looking to lease because I will be living in NYC in 2 years and will not want a car at that time. Mitsubishi currently has 24 month lease offers, which is perfect for me. Went to the dealership today in Paramus, NJ. Was offered a GSR, black, with no packages for 249/month with $4,500 down. I forgot to ask the annual mileage but I am going to assume it's 10,000/year. I really want the SS package but unfortunately that raised the monthly payment by a lot. With the SS package and 4,500 down they quoted me at about 320/month. What do you guys think about both of these deals? They have the MSRP for the black GSR with no add-ons listed at 35740, residual value at 26090, and rate at .00008. Any thoughts? Can I do better on the SS deal? Thanks!

 

I can get you the sheet they use from their "secret book" as my dealer calls it. They only thing you can negotiate is the price of the car/ packages and maybe fees.
I will post some picks of the pictures I took of their "secret book"

 

Here is a pic I took real quick when he went to get his manager to explain the deal to us. This is from the Lease offers for the months of thru for 2012 models, so the deals probably changed a bit since then. I'm sure you can ask to look at the sheet when you go to negotiate.
From what I see, the money fact you were offered is lower than the .00010 offered a couple months ago, so that's good.

 

Been waiting on Planet Mitsubishi here at Hempstead NY to get the 2013 MR in stock and its been a month and they haven't gotten it in stock. They are telling me to special order it...

 

is 36736 a good price for a new mr?

 

I just ordered a 2013 we with sight and sound package for 35500 gets here in February

 

Picked up a 2013 with navi mercury pearl gray for 36,500.

 

What packages/accesories did you want on it?

 

I wanted it with all the packages...touring, premium, and navi

 

Is 34500 for an 2012 OB with the ss and free shipping to my door to much to pay for this year

 

I paid a few hundred less in March when I bought my 2012. Should be less now that 2013s are out.

 

Don't forget to add in your dealer fees, destination, taxes etc...

34500 sounds like a fair price but it might be some wiggle room left.
If it were me I would try and work with the dealership to try and make the numbers match what you are willing to pay.
Also remember so far there are no Octane Blues for 13, so if you are set on picking up an OB your choices/dealerships/prices are somewhat limited "inside the box".
Just remember your ALWAYS going to find someone that "bought" the car for $5000 or $5 cheaper than what you pay.

 

I would like a 2013 with just SS for around $33,000. Is this possible, or are the days of $29,999 base GSRs long over?

 

Hey guys this is my first post been a lurker for a while. Right now I have a 2005 BMW 545i my tranny is about to die I wanted to trade it in for the evo x. I've been searching online found some good deals and some bad deals. I came across what I think is a great deal please correct me if I'm wrong. Its a 2011 Evo X GSR with 3,500 miles it looks great dark grey color only option it has its the FAST key. They asking 28k for it do you guys think its a good deal? Also I've never driven a manual car so it would be a great learning lesson. I took it for a test drive for about twenty mins I managed to stall the car about 3 times. Any input would be greatly appreciated thanks guys!

 

If it has FastKey it has "Sight and Sound" package. So it also has HID projector headlights and the RockFosgate 720w 9speaker sound system (10" sub in the trunk).

For the mileage, if the car is stock it doesn't sound bad at all. I paid 10k more than that for an 11GSR new with Sun and Leather too.

Dark gray is also called Graphite Gray, it's a great color IMO.

Also by 2011 you really don't have to worry about the fuel pump relays, TC overfill, Diff-Pins, or Timing Chain issues that popped up on previous years. Also the 11 has bigger side skirts than the 08-10, which flows really nicely. Hard for me to say much bad, since you can see I have an 11 too, and I felt I was picky when I was searching.
