If you cancel your deal, I doubt you'll find a similar spec, color or similar offering anytime soon. Invoice price is OK (IMO). I paid 28,800 for mine, and I don't feel ripped off at all. The dealership I bought it from is 15mi from our apartment. Had the car of exact spec (except color) that I wanted. Turns out, I really liked the black color now instead of gray which was my 1st preference. IMO, it isn't worth cancelling the deal for 100$ less and start the haggling again at some dealer 50-100mi away, granting you'll find another dealer who would offer it to you at 28,495, because the car of that spec is a bit difficult to find and are in limited numbers. You might actually end up with one that isn't your choice of color. So stick with the deal, I think it's a steal to have it at that price.

Thank you, it was just a thought. I'm pretty happy with the deal I got. Originally, I want it before the holiday. I went to 2 closer dealers (one 6 miles and the other was 7 miles away) but both want sticker price. The current one is 28 miles away and the only draw back was I have to wait for the shipment. Rcpax, thank you again, you gave a lot of good info and advices.

I also think that you got a great deal. Heck, I payed $29100 for mine. The XLS AWD is almost impossible to get now with a 12week back order.

From what I'm hearing...I would definitely not cancel anything if you've got exactly what you want on the way. They are pretty scarce right now fully loaded all over. The dealer I got mine from said a woman called right after me looking for the exact same car and he couldn't find another one. As for the price, I wouldn't feel ripped ...I know the dealer used part of an incentive they were getting and they put it through as a $1000 VIP purchaser rebate. And they made up some of that on my trade-in too I'm sure.
But yeah...don't cancel if you really want that car.

From what I'm reading here it looks like the Outlander sells well. At least the dealers sell all what they can get their hands on. I wonder if the lower trims sell as well as the fully loaded XLS.

I think the majority of initial wave of Outlanders delivered were LS. This is basing on what I still see at the dealer's lot that are not yet sold. Most of them LS and ES. Mitsu's initial forecast for EU is the same. They see the big bulk of sales will go to the LS (Warrior) 60%, then XLS (Elegance)for about 30%, and the rest is ES (Equippe).Because this SUV is affordable, most buyers in the US(or at least the members here at Edmund's)are going for the fully loaded ones. Maybe next year Mitsu will start changing their initial forecast, and a greater number of fully loaded XLS will be at the lot, and I've heard we'll start to see a factory installed RSE next year, and the Red and Warm Sand colors will be added in the lineup.

I second that, a lot of LS and ES here in NY as well. My first 2 dealers try to sell me the LS for less than invoice. I only wont the loaded XLS. An also, the salesman said that entertainment package is not available for the XLS.

From the Mitsubishi site, the build & price indicate that there are Navigation Package and Accessary Navigation Package. Other than the price, what are the differences between the two packages?
