Sounds like your salesman is working hard to lose a sale. The alignment shop is next door and they can't make it happen? If I was that sales guy, I'd drive each car over there myself and get it done to close the deal.
If they are making you a great deal and you really want to buy from them, make them this offer: If they check the alignment on the cars and they are within spec (all 4 wheels), you'll pay for the alignment checks. Based on the alignment data posted on this site, the chance of ALL 4 wheels being properly aligned from the factory isn't very good. Even if the rear axle is OK, the front end may be out of spec. This is the way my car was.
Of the 30+ alignment checks posted to this forum, only 1 was within spec for all 4 wheels. I wasn't a statistics major, but I'm pretty sure that means the odds aren't very good.
My opinion? There's no way I would buy any Mirage without knowing if the rear alignment checks out. Even if you trust the dealer, why would you want to buy a car with a potential warranty repair waiting for you as soon as you drive it off the lot? Take your business somewhere if these guys don't want to meet a reasonable request.

Yeah...what he said.
