Mitsubishi Dealers
Anyone know of any local dealership that will allow people to test drive a Lancer Evo X? I really want to get one, but I'm a bit iffy about putting down 50 grand for something I cant try first. I went to Newtype in Richmond and they said I would have to place an order first.

What if I order it, test drive it, and decide I want a STI instead?

You cannot test drive an Evo X at a dealership before you buy it.

Go ask a friend or something.

Mitsu dealers get two cars they're allowed to 'mark out' as testers by corporate. This usually means expensive stuff, but not stuff they'll lose out on. Often it's their big SUVs or whatever they're pushing for that model year.

And definitely not an EVO X.

Some potential buyers cannot test drive M3/C63 that are in the 80-grand range, let alone a 50k EVOX.

I know a Subaru Dealer that allows STI test drive. Would it help?
