I want to purchase a 2008 Outlander. I am looking at a 2WD with DVD player. I am paying cash. What price range should I look for?? If I am paying cash, I expect to get a lower deal. Is that fair to say? Thanks, John

There are some rebates being offered on the Outlander right now, and some incentives for military, past Mitsubishi owners, and students I think. See the Mitsubishi site for those. |

Received offer of $21,032.56 plus tax title and license fees for 2007 Outlander LS 4WD Auto (Invoice $23,032.00 - $1,500 rebate & dealer incentives). MSRP was $25,395. Vehicle comes with no add-on options...standard configuration. Should I go for it or should I pass? Thanks for your help in advance.

Warning!!! Do not buy from Carriage Mitsubishi in Murrieta, CA. I had arranged by email and phone conversation to purchase a 2008 Outlander with NAV, S & S, and Luxury pkgs. I had received a quote from another dealer by email, forwarded it to the Internet manager at Carriage Mitsu, and asked him if he would match the offer and throw in the alarm module that they always take out. He called and agreed over the phone to the deal. Well, I went the next day to fill out all the paperwork and pick up the vehicle. before I filled out the paperwork, I told the finance person that I wanted to make sure the vehicle still had the alarm module. When the finance manager told the Internet manager what I said, the Internet manager said that he did not say I could have the alarm module but that he was talking about the factory alarm I could have for free. Say what? Why would I ask for something in the deal that already comes with the vehicle? I know that the Outlander comes with some type of alarm but not the one that detects a broken window. That is the alarm module. Well, we proceeded to the GM's office where the Internet mgr told the GM what i said and the GM said he could give me the alarm module for $199. At this point I was so mad that I wouldn't pay them a penny for the thing!!! I told them that i didn't have to have that vehicle and they said "fine". Anyways, needless to say, I will never step foot back at carriage Mitsubishi again and I urge all of you out there in So Cal to give your business to another dealership. There are plenty to choose from and there is no reason to put up with BS from this kind of dealership.

I stopped by South Coast Mitsubishi the other day in SoCal and they have a ton (over two dozen) 2007 Outlanders still on the lot. Needless to say they are offering some really good prices (as should all dealers trying to get rid of the 2007s). Don't forget there is also a $1500 rebate from Mitsu on 2007. Was offered a 4WD XLS for $3,000 under invoice. Sounds like a pretty good deal, don't forget you have to consider the extra depreciation on a '07 over an '08 come resale time. I didn't jump on it but at this rate the prices will fall more before they get rid of all their '07s.

I wrote before about how terrible Carriage Mitsubishi in Temecula, CA is. Well, now I am sooooooo thankful that I walked out of there. I started looking around online at dealers all over So Cal and came across South Coast Mitsubishi in Costa Mesa. While I was checking their inventory online, I noticed that they had over 15 2007 Outlanders in stock. They had an 07' blue XLS with NAV, S&S, and Luxury pkgs. This is a clone of the 08' I almost bought. I called the Fleet mgr at South Coast to see if they did in fact still have it in stock and he confirmed that they still had it. The price that was listed on their website was $24,999 after the rebate. While that was a good price, I knew I could do better. I asked the Fleet mgr what his rock-bottom price was and he told me to just come down there and make an offer. I went there that night and offered them $24,200 plus tax and license. At first, he acted like I was crazy but when I told him basically that was my take-it-or-leave-it offer, he said he would check with his mgr. To my surprise, he came back and told me the good news. I was expecting a counter offer from them but it was getting late so I think they just wanted to get home. What made the deal even better was that everyone at South Coast was so friendly.The fleet mgr was very knowledgeable about the vehicle, which is rare. Another surprise to me was when we were signing the paperwork in the finance office. Usually the finance person tries to sell you an extended warranty, not here. He didn't even mention an extended warranty, even though I did see literature on the side of his desk. Again, this was probably because we were there at 10:00 pm signing papers. I highly recommend to those of you in So Cal that are looking for a great deal, go to South Coast Mitsubishi. They still have several 07's available. I am so happy that I saved over $2000 by buying an 07' vs the 08'. It is the exact same vehicle. I do not plan on selling it so I am not at all concerned about the resale value of the 07' against the 08'.

Replying to: avalanchez66 (Feb 10, 2008 7:40 pm) Unfortunately their Service Department hasn't been as knowledgeable or professional. They didn't tighten my oil plug during my last oil change, luckily I spotted the pool of oil on my garage floor before disaster struck. They also knew very little about the TSBs for the vehicle and didn't have the equipment to do what I needed... twice. So keep an eye on them.
