Mitsu dealers don't get sticker price for them. A GSR w/SSS (probably the most common setup) is 32-34k. Back when they were closing out the 2008 models (which they produced too many of) I heard of a few guys getting them for 28k. Mitsu usually offers 0% financing so a new Evo really isn't all that expensive in the big scheme of things.

The Lotus sell for nearly half of their sticker price with just a few thousand miles on them. If you're looking for a road course vehicle then it's compelling because they are track-ready out of the box. Throw a set of pads on the Exige and your 'modding' is done. You end up spending $15k in mods to get the Evo anywhere near that level and we all know that mods are worth $0 when it comes time to sell the car.
