I placed an order at Russell Westbrook Jeep in Van Nuys--they said they could not give me an estimate until it comes in because they would use the current deals? I'll share once I hear more.

I am thinking about reordering cause I want to change up/add a couple of features--sounds like Dillon's is the best bet? Where is Dillon's? I don't mind a road trip.

I think it's in Caldwell, Idaho, near Boise.

West valley in canoga is a "sister" dealership, that's where I went. Russell said that, which meant they'll mark it up for sure. So far it's been 3-5k market adjustment. When the sales man didn't offer to place an order and later mentioned about the price being based on "current deals" I left. He also mentioned that they weren't getting any until June but I doubt he knew much about it.

Ugh, that's what I was afraid of. I actually purchased my current 2016 JK from West Valley--the only reason I went to them is that they were the only place with the color I wanted.

When I was ordering my JL with Russell Westbrook, I felt that I knew way more about the available options than any of the salesmen. I feel like that is a common (and very frustrating) theme in the SoCal Jeep Dealerships.

Thanks for the insight :)

Basketball players don't know squat about selling cars. :) In a previous life I bought a Dodge from Scottie Pippen Dodge - they went out of business - now it's Napleton's Northwestern Dodge. Never saw Scottie, which is fine as he's supposed to be a real douche.

It’s in Caldwell, Idaho. It’s a 13 hour drive. Just gonna make a weekend out of it. 5% under invoice and they were very friendly and quick to respond to any questions I had. I emailed 22 dealerships up and down the CA before I decided on Dillon’s. Good luck

Ordered Black 2 Door Rubicon on January 13. Have VIN already. the 5% thing is a trap everybody is falling into. I got a good discount with a final price between Employee (EP) and Friends and Family (FFP). I must have seen over a 100 posts where 5% and 6% below invoice is quoted, but in all cases where the price sheet was displayed the price was between EP and FFP. Some sheets had a below EP quote but the dealer qualified the price with a block letter MUST FINANCE (Where the dealer picks up a nice F$$). Other cases where the price was at EP, the dealer has a large fee that pushes the price back to between EP & FFP.

If you want to order in the SoCal, call Flavio Andrioli (949) 230-4166 at https://www.tuttleclickchrysler.com. Flavio is in the Irvine Showroom (Internet Sales Manager). He gave me a great deal.

BTW. THE VIN for the 2 DR Rubicon is 1C4HXCG9JW148XXX

Don't have exact number on me but it is $40,4xx
2.2% under invoice... #notbad at all 5 is pretty hard to get actually. After all the JL is brand new and we barely have any at the dillerships

So the guy that mentioned several at 5% off invoice posted fake news?
How about Normandin?
Fremont?
Stevens Creek?
Burlingame?
San Leandro?
Walnut Creek?

Quite a short list.
The info I posted was accurate. You guys just aren't haggling correctly - or the demand has picked up and the dealers I had went to have since changed their tune.

I got 6% below invoice in California - Work harder - Or go to Dillons in Idaho (5% under invoice)

Agree. Some dealers im SoCal are quoting more discounts if you finance or buy the $999 protection pack. Lots of games they play.
