Hey not sure how many of you guys were planning on pre-ordering the new evo in the U.S. at sticker price, or how many were gonna wait it out and see after they test drove it and stuff, but the fleet manager at Don Herring Mitsubishi in the DFW area told me that on the first shipment of the new evo's only what MMNA considers are the top 25 "premier dealerships" (based on high volume sales in a geographic area, triple diamond awards, etc.) are gonna receive them, and then slowly the others are gonna get their hands on them. But technically, by law, if you order from these dealerships as a LEGITIMATE pre-order (with a deposit and contract), they can only sell it to you at sticker price. Afterwards, they can buy the cars themselves and jack up the price and all that if they feel like it. I'm not saying that these are the only 25 you can pre-order from, but they are the first 25 that should get their hands on them before any other dealership. Anyway, just thought I'd let you guys know that's what Don Herring Mitsubishi is doing... I put my deposit down a little over a month ago, and so, according to him, I'm first on the list in all of Texas. He said in a few weeks, he should have all the (official) info on the car with prices, transmission, trims, options, etc. to choose from. Also, note that some of these dealerships may decide not to take pre-orders until they have all of the official info.
But if you're like me and you just HAVE to have it as SOON as it's available... then here are the 25 Premier Dealerships that he was telling me about (not in any particular order):
1. Don Herring Mitsubishi - Dallas/Fort Worth, TEXAS
2. Bill Seidle Mitsubishi - Miami/Fort Lauderdale, FLORIDA
