JLU Ordering on West Coast

[LMontes]

Dishman Dodge Build. Matched Koons offer!! Also didn't know about the bonusdrive.com discount. Another $500 off if you qualify.

I also ordered a Sahara, in Bright white, a lot of the same options you have except for the body colored top and selec-trac (which wasn't available when I ordered). When looking at your order, I noticed they have the Infotainment and Alpine Stereo listed separately with $$$ amounts, I believe the Infotainment system comes with the Alpine speakers and you should not have to pay an addition $1200 for the speakers. I didn't spend time adding up your order, but I would check to see if the speakers are an additional cost outside the infotainment system.

I noticed that as well. I haven't had a chance to add it either, however I saw someone else's order look like this and they deleted the alpine speaker price off the final invoice amount.


added it up, they take out the 1153 for the alpine speakers. it is included with infotainment package.

I just got my JLUR ordered. Managed to pull 6% under invoice out in California.

Actually had 3 dealerships willing to do 6% under invoice.

And another few willing to do 5% under invoice.

All with email haggling and the Dennis Idaho dealership (at 5%) as my arguing point.

I did have one try to argue with me that these JL's won't go below MSRP. He quoted me 4% OVER MSRP. lmao

And, keep in mind, I haggled the 6% price in just 2 days time. That price had no agreement on financing. And no knowledge of a trade-in. $80 standard CA doc fee. Nothing extra. Just a TON of state tax, of course!

Good luck fellas!

Can you share the names of the CA dealerships?

Can you share the names of the CA dealerships?

***these are not their advertised prices. These are what I got while playing the haggle game***

Here is a rundown of the various dealerships in Northern California that I dealt with online and their prices.

Keep in mind, I literally emailed every dealer within an 80 mile radius of my house. Probably around 40. Some haven't even replied yet. And some probably didn't waste their time with me.

I am keeping the dealer I went with off of this list though. Considering it is only an order, I don't want them getting hit with a ton of people after the deal I got and get mad at me. I'll speak with my guy and see what he would be ok with me posting up with.

The ones below that say "Negative on 5%" just flat out said no, and didn't offer an alternative. I didn't try to haggle with those guys. And the one's that have "Price match" are ones that claimed they'd match ANY California price you can come up with.

All percentages in the list are "below invoice".

Daly City - 6% (Initially agreed to 5%, then I haggled them to 6%)
Tracy (Price match) - 6% (They wouldn't be haggled to that price, they would only agree to price match my best price on paper)
Gilroy (Price match) - 5% (Apparently the leader in Northern California on volume - They offered a good price right off the bat)
Yuba - 5%
Manteca - 2%
San Jose - 3%
Concord - 2.50% (They offered me 5% initially, then backed out of it)
Antioch - Negative on 5%
Healdsburg - Negative on 5%
Lakeport - Negative on 5%
Sacramento - Negative on 5%
Turlock - Negative on 5%
Walnut Creek - Negative on 5%

San Leandro - 4% OVER MSRP (LOL)


Keep in mind - your likelihood of contacting any of the 5-6% guys above and simply asking for it, probably won't work. You'll need to use some fancy haggling skills and get one of them at a reasonable price before being able to push the others. I recommend hitting up Gilroy for starters, as they seem to push the most volume and were the quickest to throw a reasonable price at me.

By Daly City, do you mean Stewart in Colma?

I ordered from Folsom Jeep, any chance someone has ordered or received a price quote from them yet?

@LMontes , what deal did they give you, if you want to share?

I have only ordered, waiting for jeep to come in and start the negotiating, I realize I may not be in the best position to negotiate since they know I want that Jeep I ordered with my name on it! But the more info I have from this forum, will surely help.

Might be good to get a price from Sullivan in Yuba city, seems they go to -5%, and use that price to get a deal at folsom

I contacted them as part of my email queue. They never replied to me.

Their internet guy is either off for the past few days, or didn't even bother to email back.

I pushed the 5% Idaho deal as my arguing point in my initial email. A handful matched it. Folsom didn't respond at all.

 

[simpleJL]

Another hint of advice. Try to get the deal without involving a trade in initially. See if you can get them at 5% or so BEFORE mentioning a trade in. My feeling is that they are more willing to go low if you have a trade in involved that they can gouge some money out of in order to balance the minimal profit of the JL sale.

I ended up getting my 6% in California without any financing requirements and without mention of a trade in.


Also, pin down a price before you order. Make them put it on paper before the order. In the form of a build sheet with the agreed offer hand written. Then make sure you get a copy of the POC paper (price ordered confirmation). That's the actual order paper, with the hand written agreed price on there. So they don't try to change it up in a month or two when the Jeep shows up.

The key is to minimize the cards in their deck. Get control. Keep control. It's all a game.

And you can and should do this all over email. I didn't call or touch foot in a dealership.
