LOL at Mountain Mitsubishi

C'mon guys...who do I need to talk to in order to avoid the "runaround"?

Spoke with a guy named Don on the phone. I won't pay more than invoice, and I told him this. I also told him about South Coast and their below-invoice promotion.

He goes to talk to his manager. Calls back 15 minutes later to tell me that a bunch of Works parts had been installed on the car I'm looking at. Then he tells me that his manager wouldn't let it go for less than MSRP + cost of parts (came out to about 2k). Give me a break!

The funniest part was when he told me was when he told me about the "Evo shortage." Curious and equally dubious, I asked "What do you mean?" He said "Oh they're all going over to Europe. We don't expect any more for at least six months."

I'm this close to just flying down to LA and grabbing one from South Coast. Does anyone know how I can deal more effectively with the people at Mountain Mitsubishi?

We're in The Northwest dude, and Evo's are a lot harder to get and deal with here then down in Cali. Honestly I think you should fly down, no one is going to sell at invoice here.
Almost everyone sells Evos in the NW for around MSRP, if not more.

Not sure how far you are willing to travel and what you are looking for but my local dealer has a TB9 w/ssl they would probably sell for invoice (illinois)

jw if you fly down to cali and pick one up. Will cost of the plane ticket+food+gas equal the difference? It would be cool to have you car already broken in when you get back though and there might be some nice scenic routes. But you should have a friend or somebody go with you, it will be extremely boring by yourself.

That's cool that they got Works installed on the EB Evo, but I don't want it.

Who is Chris Lee? How do I get a better deal than MSRP at Mountain Mitsubishi? Can you put in the good word?

By the way, there is no way Evo X is arriving this fall. If the NW is receiving no more Evos like the dude said, I'm going to Cali no matter what, I guess.

You can try Appleway Mitsu in Spokane, I got mine there and broke it in going over the passes on the way back . The guy you want to talk to is Ken (Hauser ?). Not sure on the last name, but he sold me mine over the phone and paid for my ticket to come pick it up. Even if you don't end up buying there, nothing helps the deal like a little competition. I called every dealership in the state before I decided where to buy.

I was going to buy in the summer, but I can buy now since I got a good loan rate. So if the deal is right, I can buy right away. But some needs to be met:

1) It must be EB
2) I won't pay more than Invoice
3) No miles on Odo if possible, completely stock, no front license bracket installed

If you can find someone that can make this happen, let me know.

By the way, Chris. Could you PM me the price you paid on your IX (before tax, ttl, etc.) ?
