Be careful and know exactly what you are buying from these folks. I was shown two 2008 Lancer Evo MR's (one red and one grey) and was told that both cars were the same. The RED one was a $3,000 more, but the dealership said it was because the red car was more popular. I specifically told the salesman that I wanted the technology package which contained upgraded stereo components.

In looking over the car, I spent the majority of the time with the RED car as I liked the color. However, in the end I decided I liked the grey one better. The finance manager showed me quotes for both cars and even stated that he would offer me the same price on both. Since I assumed both cars were equivalent, I didn't bother to double check the sticker on the car. AT NO TIME was I told the grey car did not include the technology package.

Needless to say as I was driving home, I noticed that the grey car did not sound as good as the red one. It was then that I realized the technology package was missing.

I've tried to work with the dealership to come to some sort of resolution, but they are not budging. They are following the party line that I purchased the car "as is" and that I should have verified that I was getting the car I wanted before I walked off the lot.

Shady practices at best if you ask me.

So you took a salesman's word and didn't check for yourself when the info was written right there on the Maroni sticker? That's your fault.

You say the red car was $3,000 more but they would sell you both for the same price? What was the price on the Maroni? If you say the salesman offered you both at the same price you should have bought the one that had a $3,000 higher sticker. Did you really think the sticker was $3,000 higher just because of the color?

""I didn't bother to double check the sticker on the car."" That's the first thing you should have done before you even talked to the salesman. These guys are operating on a shoestring in a dealer this small. They are going to make money however they can to stay afloat.
