okay, I realize i am a month late, but ellusionz..... that seems to be a great price!
 
I live in the dallas area, but would be willing to take a road trip to florida
 
Have one question as well: fees listed by you include $200 for documents and title, $200 for tags and registration, and $17 for electronic filing. Do you think any of these were optional? I mean, some only list $150 as total fees.
 
And NOT saying its still not a great price! You did great!
 
PS anyone in the Dallas area come close to this deal?

well, since ellusionz could not get back to me, I had to go out and negotiate it myself
 
Black ES CVT no options at all, Stickered MSRP was 16,890 wioth an additional 625 destination charge for total of 17,515. My price was 16,716 , then had to add Registration fee of 72, title fee 33, State inspection fee 22, Document fee 50, deputy fee 5, and then a tricky little inventory tax fee that was never explained, but just "added" to my sales tax after the 6.25%.
 
Nice thing was, no VIN etching fee or seat protection was added to EVERY CAR on the lot, like some high pressure joints. I hate it when they just add stuff and try and charge for it
 
Not under invoice, but right at it according to Edmunds.
 
Thanks for all the info though guys, without y'all help, I never would have thought it would even have gone this low.

Your price is invoice minus 46 cents. The only thing left for the dealer was holdback of $337 plus any money they will get for making their quota from Mitsubishi. They also got the doc fee of $ 50.
 
I know this because the invoice is right in front of me.
 
We sell them all day at invoice but not the GTS. We can't get them fast enough.

I got my Wicked White ES, CVT with Sun and Sound, fog lights and appearance package last week. The MSRP with the $625 delivery was $19,505. I paid $18,106 before trade, etc.
 
I ended up going to RC Hill Mitsubishi in Deland, FL. Great people, and I would recommend them highly. I basically got the deal done before I went to the dealership, so it was quick and easy. Got 3.9% financing for 48 months.
All in all, I am very pleased with the car, and the deal.

Let me get this straight... by 1racefan

From what I am reading here, the ES and DE models can be had for right at invoice, but the GTS cannot, due to its popularity???
 
I am looking at an ES that the dealer has stuck a rear spoiler on, and added side window deflectors. One of the things I have noticed is locally there are very few "unmolested" Lancers. All these dealers have added stuff to them.
 
My dealer has 2 Lancer ES with leather interior - I had no idea leather was even an option.

All Lancer Models can be negotiated closer to invoice. I have spoken with several people where the sticker price for their 08 Lancer GTS was $22K, but the negotiated and got it down to the $17K range. It all depends on the local areas demand the what the dealer has in stock. If it is popular in the area you are buying and the dealer can only get its hands on 2, they won't be as willing to "wheel and deal". Opposite that, if the dealer constantly has 10 or more Lancers available and they are selling in that area, the dealer will be more willing to negotiate to move old inventory for new inventory, even if it is the same vehicle. It also shows well to Mitsubishi if the dealer can sell more cars than other Mitsubishi dealers in the area.
 
As to Lancers that are bare stock at whatever trim level, the dealer purposely adds stuff as well as B.S. things like "Additional Rust inhibitors and Fabric sealants" to be able to justify a raised price. The thing to keep in mind is that dealers are trying to make as much money out of you as possible. Also, they have the ability to negotiate for cars with specific setups from other dealers in the state. The best way to get what you want is to know what you want, even if that is a trim level base bare from the factory, and request that one. If the dealer you go to doesn't have it or won't work to order from Mitsubishi or negotiate one from another dealer, take your business elsewhere. It is your money, don't compromise what you want.
 
As for the leather option, it is NOT a standard option for any level of 08 lancer, however, many dealers have connections to local body shops and upholstery makers where can get customized leather seats installed. This is generally a bit of a pricey add on, again, that the dealer wants to put on there to be an incentive to a certain market of people where they can get away with charging more and not compromising on the sticker price as much.
 
Hope this helped to answer your questions.

The dealer has about 16 total on their lot. 2 have leather (both ES models). 1 is an ES with leather, but no sunroof. The other is an ES with leather, and a sunroof. They have several DE models, some with sunroofs and custom wheels. There isn't a single ES that hasn't been gussied up with something (either a rear spoiler, custom wheels, side deflectors, leather interior, etc...).
 
I just thought it was odd to see a whole slew of ES Lnacers on their lot, and everyone has been modified to some extent.

You might find some aggressive pricing in the Boston MA area,
if you wish to travel further south. Also, why not upstate NY? You share a common border there as well. Syracuse area,
or Buffalo area. Go to the Mitsubishi USA website. I would suspect more aggressive pricing would be found towards Boston.
 More competition there.
