Alileighju wrote:Yes, pit dealers against each other. And price should be your only concern. Who cares about customer service. You are there for one reason only, to buy a car for a cheap as possible. Often the dealers will try and befriend you or loop you in emotionally. Ignore all that and focus on the price only. This may sound harsh but I went through the exact same scenario at the beginning of this year and I look back and think how much of an idiot I was getting convinced of their lowest price. You can always go lower. I went from 31000 for my VRX down to 27500.


Thats good haggling I must say.
With regards to 'be-friending' or emotional blackmailing(if may use that word) the worst I've heard so far...from a very young sales guy is...'I'm pretty sure you're not going to come back' !! LOL

... :shock: ... looks like you've gotten plenty love from the WA crew. :lol:

so, there is not much more for me to say, other than, Congrats on the ewn car.

I bet the final few days wait prior to pick up is going to be the worst. :)

Good luck and make sure you check everything works, every button, gadget, door, no dents or panel deformations, any odd paintwork damage or orange peeling effect, etc. If there is something not quite right, check another Lancer in the yard to make sure it's normal or not. If it's not, note it on the report before signing so they can sort it out on the first 1,500km complimentary service.

Well..there's never too much 'love' ;) so keep it comin
Thanks for the advise Pete, I haven't seen the car in the yard because it was still in Mitsubishi's hold...will be at the dealer on wednesday or so... But yes I've made a list of things to check before taking delivery. The wait is unbearable though! *mad2*
Hopefully next weekend I'll have photos up for ya'll to see.. :)
First things and probably the only things on my mind re. mod are..'blackout bumper' and Steel look around front grill.
Lets see how it goes.

Thanks Ali,
Yes very good price..I could've done better but I got greedy :mrgreen: and included the extras i.e. floor lights, bonnet protector, weathershield..which pushed the price up, but anyhoo..I'm still very very happy with it. :)

@Rahul,
Yes thats the plan. Looking around...what I'd like... and the list growing by the minute!! *eek*

@Eman,
I haven't got it done yet. going to be a D.I.Y. job. I just got the vinyl from a signwriter near my work(wangara) during lunch break :D got it for $15 should be enough for 2 attempts :P

A place tried to sell me the vinyl for $50 *faint2* (it was 3M controltac) tried to talk me into getting him to install it for me..and he wanted $110 for it!!
