Mitsubishi Discounts to remember

by mdics911 on Sat Jul 19 11:37:48 PDT 2008

We purchased an 08 Lancer just a few months ago. Aside from a very nice car, I wanted to mention to discount programs that worked out well for us. 1) $500 college grad discount (even if you graduated 2 years ago) 2) $500 customer loyalty. (Anyone that you know that owns a Mitsu works) Paying at invoice or a bit below is no problem at all.

One month old today.

I purchased a new Outlander SE 4WD on June 4th from Mike Miller Mitsubishi here in Illinois. No trade-in and I paid $23,633 OTD. I did get them to throw in the Bluetooth system (I think it was about a $350.00 option). Tried to get them to spring for the four mudguards but no dice. I paid $114.00 for them and the dealership installed them for free.

Thanks. Do you know if the 09 outlander will look much different than the 2008s? From what I know, current 2008 Outlander SE has a lot of styling cues that will become standard on all 2009 Outlanders (chrome on the exterior and a new speedometer display). I think Mitsu will add a rear view camera to its navigation display. Also, Japanese Outlander V6 received a minor grille redesign so it is not far fetched to think that 2009 US spec Outie also will receive a new grille. Of course all of this is just educated speculation but Mitsubishi did some improvements from the 2007 to 2008 Outlander such as redesigned interior door panels, heated mirrors on 4WD models, or a more efficient air conditioning system so you'll probably see some other minor improvements on 2009 but I don't think any of it will be classified as major.

I highly doubt that Mitsubishi will increase the $1000 rebate it is offering this month, they just started the rebates on 2008 model, the 2009 Outlander should become available in October/November and thats when you'll see larger rebates on 2008 models, same thing that happened to 2007s when the 2008 came out. Currently in my area you can get a brand new fully loaded 2007 XLS 4WD for around $23500 (original MSRP is over $31K). If you are looking to buy a car within this or next month then I wouldn't hold my breath for more incentives but if you are willing to wait 2-3 months then you'll see greater discounts.

I am guessing that you are talking about a 2008 model, but anyway, I think the price is a bit too high for a 2008, and very high if its a 2007 model. Recently after all the dealing I got a quote on a base 4WD 2007 Outlander at $22000 (doesn't include tt&l). Outlanders are good cars in the CUV category but reality is that Mitsubishi is not selling them a lot. Mitsubishi predicted around 4000 per month sales when they released the new Outlander but they are not even close. Last month sales have been abysmal which means that if you'll be patient enough you will drive away with a new Outlander at least $1500-2000 under invoice. If I were you I would still shop around, email a couple of dealers and pit them against each other. And if the price is right it is a good idea to even go to another state and pick it up.

Hi tootired! You are welcome! Just to give you an idea regarding the range of the 2008 Outlander lease offers, I have also received one from the Dorsett Mitsubishi (Indiana): $560/month with $3000 cap reduction + taxes and fees for the similarly equipped vehicle. Cheers
