Want the first EVO VIII?
Bemani told me that the dealership by my house just got the first EVO in...
And guess how much they are asking for it...
$45,000
LMAO!
No thanks

hey
apparently, there are a whole bunch of dealers trying to sellthe evo at this kind of rediculous mark up. no car is worth that kind of markup. anyone who pays that is a fool.

Yep, my "hookup" dealer said $43,000. Thats over $12,000 in mark up. Ridiculous. Even rarer then 3 legged purple singing crocodiles NSX's don't marked up that much. And that is on a car with MSRP of over $75,000. Blarg!
I wouldn't doubt if Subaru dealers will mark the STi's up by as much.

wow...that's a freaking huge markup...
to hell i dun think any car is worth over MSRP...except maybe those limited ferrari or european cars...but that's another story...
the people who pay that price are seriously dumb asses...lets hope nobody does it..

I should also note that when a dealer gets a limited-production car and they only get one or two for the floor, often they'll mark them up to outrageous prices to keep them on the floor, but will be much more reasonable if you are willing to order one and wait.

Markup in San Diego is $3500 and $5000. The car is definitely worth $32500 and maybe $34k. But once the STi becomes available that markup is out the window. I told the dealer today I wouldn't pay any markup and drove away.

I checked out the evo's closer today, actulaly got to sit in it... I like em, but its just too much freakin mark up...
BTW, the salesman said first thing to me as I was looking "I got a 12.9 at the test day" Sure buddy... Like I needed to know that. The rest of the conversation was much better, the guy did actually go down to the drive day for the cars, which is cool, and he know alot, which was good, and he wasnt trying to BS him and I wasnt trying to BS him back so that was good too. But thats ok, i'd rather get an STI

The Evo will be a mass produced car. In six months when dealerships are loaded with this cars. they will be selling them at invoice. when the S2000 came out it has a 10k markup. bottom line, nobody will pay it, and the consumers will drive the price down.
