A local Mitsubishi dealer marked up ALL their 2006 EVO MR $18k! It put the sales price at a whopping $54k! I have never seen any mark up that high and worst case is someone will be paying close to their asking price.

 

Damn!

I'll take a new vette anyday over that!

 

...meanwhile Mitsubishi is bleeding record losses and losing ground in the US for each passing day.

 

Thats just retarded!!

 

Is anyone going to pay 54k for an EVO?

 

These were my sentiments too.

MR has horrendous turbo lag

 

Nothing is impossible in the world of auto marketing. Those people know no limits.

 

Supply/demand... there's still plenty of people with too much $$$$ and too little sense.

Remember when the ZR-1 1st came out?? Some Chevy dealers around me tacked on $20K...calling it a 'market adjustment'. Same thing happened to the Cadillac Allante...for the 1st month or 2. Of course that one really shows how stupid things can get.

...A fool & his money are soon parted...

 

... something tells me they'll still sell.

LOL, those will be collecting dust on the lot for monthes.

I'd get a phat M3 for that kind of money.

 

anyone remember that M6 in beverly hills with like a 50k markup?

EDIT: found it

Yes...we had quite a discussion about that car. But you still gotta remember three things. First, for a new M, a BMW shop would charge even Chris Bangle himself a markup. Second, while it may sound like a lot to US, this is Beverly Hills.....people there spend that $50,000 markup for lunch. Third, in Beverly Hills almost everything is done for status with little concern for cost. Cars that are marked up some 80% over what they cost the dealership are simply part of the cost of living there.....unless you want to cheat and drive off to a cheaper BMW shop way out of town ( which in SoCal can be an easy 100 miles )

 

A dealer can mark up all they want.
It's the crazy buyer who's willing to pay for it

I don't think any car was as outrageous as the SLR, like a 400k or 500k markup???????????

A while back (1 yr?) at the dealer, it was listed as 400k or 500k something, not no $1mil
