why are there protestors at cutter mitsu?

Today i drove by cutter mitsubishi by pearlridge and there were about 20 people standing in front of the dealership on the side walk with signs. when i took a closer look at the signs they read "cutter steals your money" and "cutter is a thief". does anybody know why their doing this?

my guess would be because i know when i went there to look at a 03 eclipse b4 i got my wrx i saw some of the mark ups they had on dealer extra options like just over 3,000 for some no name 18in rims and 300 for decals that could of been made for 50 bucks well that just my guess i even told them they were full of **** for charging that much.

my guess is that they take your down payment on your car, try to sell the loan to a bank and when no bank will take the loan, so the ask for the car back and dont refund the down payment or something like that.

thats what happend to a friend of mine.

Could it be the $5000-$7000 mark-ups on the EVO's?

I'd join 'em. Anyone know how I can get in touch with one of those guys? Maybe they got a website up that's focused entirely on their protest.

Yeah I saw those guys on my way home too.

I heard a lotta honking from passerby cars too. Haha.. I wonder what the big deal is?

I did hear that Cutter dealerships have crappy customer service in general though. Maybe that, including unethical business practices, caused an "uprising" .... haha.
