[noclue119]

Cost of inflation??? i mean come on a MR was around 35k. so i respect it

STI (poke)
SRT/4
Possibly Mazdaspeed 3

All of the cars need snow tires and are fione with them in bad weather

i know there are other options, but still there arent many. the point was when considering what other cars cost nowadays, 30-35k isnt really all that out there

I just checked.
The RS is now $30,000.
Wasn't before between 25 to 27?
They are getting expensive.

Still awesome status symbol vehicle anyway.

I pay 1600 a year for my MSP.
I love EVO but the only complaint I have is that for the price (let's say $37000 for an MR) I wish they had a better interior. Just so that when I sit on the car I do not feel like i am driving a cheap car.
Btw,wasn't the MR $33000 not to long ago?

the MSRP of the MR has always been on the plus side of $35k, it was only introduced in the 2005 model year. however, remember that mitsu isn't exactly a strong company. getting them for invoice or lower is fairly easy. i got mine at slightly less than invoice + 0% financing for 5 years.

as far as the interior goes, that's the price you pay for the performance i guess. the interior with the SSL package or the 9 is much better than the regular 8, but it's no audi. the interior is from a $20,000 car, the performance is from a $40,000 car, so you get a $30,000 car when you combine the two

well they were like 26.9k 3 years ago and our nation is at 3.5% inflation

so 27k * 1.035 * 1.035 * 1.035 = 29.935k so its about right.

04 RS was $26,799, 05 RS was $27,929. each year they add more stuff (04-05 was bigger turbo, 05-06 is still bigger turbo and mivec), which adds to the price

Good math.
It is a nice car indeed.
