I talked to the Internet guy at a dealership near us, and he said their dealership had 15 of these Outlanders when they started shipping the last week of October. Now barely a month after, They only have 4 left. And this became a problem for me because I can't find the color I wanted, the Graphite Gray 4WD XLS with Navi. He said he searched it with a 200 mile radius and he can't find a match. Good thing I'm not too picky with colors and I'd be happy to take a Cool Silver. He found only 2 of these too. It seems the high end models are selling out fast. And I think it should be that way, since it's real value for money. But since it's thanksgiving today, he might have the car dealer swapped this Friday, the 24th. So if anyone out there located 150-200 miles around Northwest Indiana and Chicago area, and happen to know a 07Outlander Graphite Gray 4wd XLS with Navi for sale, please give a shout here  and help me get the color I wanted.

Just picked up our 07 XLS 4WD (every option) this evening. It took a week to get the white color in that we wanted (traded from another dealer). There is a 12week + backorder on the dark gray, black, white, and blue XLS's 4WD with Navi. AFAIK, we have the only white XLS 4WD in the Midwest. I've been extremely satisfied with the purchase and the truck thus far. The dealer was courteous and we received a fair price. I know it's only been 3hrs, but the only thing I don't like is the pass front legroom. Everything else I'm in love with. Definately gets 2 thumbs up.

From this press release: http://media.mitsubishi-motors.com/pressrelease/e/corporate/detail1559.html "Exports to North America rose to 3,514 units, 108. 7 percent of the October 2005 total due to healthy orders of the new Outlander model in the U.S. market." And it's not all about importing for North America, but exporting too. "North American production came in at 9,425 units, a 6.9 percent rise year-on-year due to an increase in production of the Galant export model." And for exports, it would also include the 07 Eclipse and Eclipse Spyder, which are now also being sold in various markets in Asia.

It is built in a new factory by newly trained employees and only time will tell how well these cars hold up. The Outlander is built in Japan with 100% Japanese parts content which gives me a little more comfort. Of course, no guarantees there, Japanese built cars also have their share of defects. |

Having problems finding the Sun and Sound package - but, other than that, I've made a deal. I'm ready to buy, and even after 8 years of leasing from Mitsubishi, I can't seem to get 0% on the 07 Outlander. I guess because it's brand new. But, did I read on here that Canadian dealers are offering 0%? It was the deal breaker for me. To the point where they took my information and are going to call me if/when 0% offer is available. Was anyone anywhere able to get 0% on this or is it pretty much Mitsu-wide? - Skins

Replying to: podracerdave (Nov 20, 2006 9:45 pm) Hi dave, I'm interested in the dealership you're talking about. I'm ready to buy this SUV, if I get a good price. I think you're allowed to post the dealership name, city and state. Thanks

Replying to: rcpax (Nov 26, 2006 9:43 pm) This is just another example of Mitsubishi being creative with statistics. Sales for old models always decrease when a new model is coming out--manufacturers are ramping down production of the old model and consumers are holding off on their purchases until the new model arrives. If you look at the current inventory reports in Automotive News, you'll see that Mitsubishi currently has a 140 day supply of Outlanders, which indicates that Outlander sales have been pretty poor lately.
