Hi All,
Long time lurker here. I finally pulled the trigger on the FE. I got it from El Cajon Mitsubishi in San Diego. I live in L.A. and the dealers around me have a mark up on all the FEs. I saw an ad in Autotrader from El Cajon Mitsubishi for an FE at below MSRP.
Gave them a call, we agreed on out the door price. I took the Amtrak train to get there (about 2.5 hours) and they picked me up at the station in San Diego. Got to the dealer, test drove, signed the papers, drove back home.
My old car is a 2005 Acura RSX Type-S, the transmission on the Evo is a little notchy compared to the RSX but overall I love this car.
If you're looking to buy an Evo, check out El Cajon Mitsubishi and look for Michael.

Here she is waiting for me at the dealership
Wrapped the front with painter's tape before driving back to L.A.
Here she is in my garage 115 miles later.
