- 2018 Wrangler JL Unlimited Rubicon

I thought members might benefit from some order information. I currently own a 2012 Sahara Unlimited and just ordered a JL Rubicon Unlimited Saturday. I did extensive research before going to the dealership and went back and forth through email with 6 dealerships before I settled on what I thought was the best offer. I have found that you can quickly weed out the dealers you don't want to go to this way. Some will be straight forward with you and some give you a complete runaround...avoid those ones. If they aren't willing to give you a price before you go in, they aren't being honest with you at all. In any case, I narrowed it down to two and basically put them against each other until I had what I thought was the best offer. Here's what I got:
2018 Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon .
- Granite Crystal Metallic
- Auto Trans
- LED Lighting Group
- Cold Weather Group
- Trailer Tow/HD Electrical Group
- Safety Group
- Electronic Infotainment Group
- Black 3-Piece Hard Top
- Remote Proximity Keyless Entry
- All-Weather Floor Mats
(Basically loaded minus leather seats and steel bumpers..you have to make cuts somewhere)
MSRP came out to be $50285. FYI, the Infotainment group is $200 more than listed on Jeep's Build & Price site.
Invoice pricing was $47406 and my final price was $45958, slightly over 3% below invoice (including destination).
I felt this was a very good price, especially considering I had other dealers that weren't even willing to go down to invoice. Of course, I always walk away feeling that I could have done better but these guys really weren't willing to budge any further. I pushed twice for $40 more for my trade to make it an even number and they wouldn't even do that. The trade offer was very good, by the way. My KBB range was 21,500-24,000 and they gave me about $23,300, which was quite a bit better than the number I had in my head going in. All-in-all, I feel I got a very fair deal. They wouldn't budge on the $493 Doc Fees but in MA, they are all in this range.
Please let me know what you think of this deal and I hope the info is helpful to others out there. So excited to get the jeep!
