RE: KEY
You could check Ebay for anyone selling theirs. I would think that somebody with the '07 fobs decided to upgrade to the '08 ones and may have one for sale. I would assume thoughthat the dealer would have to "flash" it to work for your car.
I think my dealer said it was like $100 for a new one, but it may even be more.

First of all, there are none that I could find on eBay. Second, my dealer told me about $150, but considering its all electronic, thats not too bad. Third, does anyone have a pic of the FASTKEY fob for the 2008? If it is a good deal smaller, I may want one, as I wanted a third key anyway. Is it the same one as the new Lancers? Thanks

I don't get it...you only got one? Bought the car at a dealer? Last time I heard someone only got one key (bought the car from a private person), the car actually turned out to be stolen.
$150 seems normal for a FASTKEY fob.

YEAH GOT ONE fob with and emergency key (not like the one posted with the link) must have an older version.
Bought the car from a dealer in Canada. The car was bought at an auction in the US. Saved over 12k over a new one here plus it came with the NAVI and the 7 seats, Would have saved maybe 2k if I bought it myself at an auction in the US plus all the hassels that come with bringing the car over and actually looking for a car. A new XLS with NAVI costs about 42k here off the lot.

yeah, going to find out this weekend. Going to take it for an oil change and some shopping 
Figured that what I save on the oil change $10 and on gas $10 I have a free trip over the border.
They gave me a 1 year powertrain warranty at the dealer (unlimited km) and said that I can service it in the US.
This is unless I can get my hands on a set of NY plates and just take it in here for service.
Yeah it was a pretty good deal, considering I bought it a Mitsubishi Dealership (go figure). $26 000 + taxes with 3000mileson it.

RE: KEY
nontoxicart,
Since you boughtit at aMitsubishi dealeri would think you would be eligible to buy and extended Mitsubishi warranty if you wanted one.It shouldn't matter where they got it from.
Did you just buy it recently. I think you have until 12000 miles to buy the extended warranty (at least here in the states you do).
You saved $12000 Canadian...wow. Isn't that like $80.00 US [sm=joke.gif] Sorry bro couldn't resist busting your chops.
