Hi there, I am looking to get into a jeep wrangler...which one not sure kinda depends on cost. The sahara 4dr i was looking at had an MSRP of 31245 and the x unlimited had an msrp of 25515. I am not sure how much wiggle room there is on the selling price I am guessing between 500-1000 dollars?? i don't really want to put anything down but will if needed, based on 36 or 39 mos and 12k miles, how much should I pay ofr these vehicles. I see a lot of discussion around money factors and residuals, can someone lety me know what I should expect these values to be given I am in Denver CO and have good credit. Thanks for your help!!!

Replying to: aamirsiddiqi (Jul 26, 2007 1:44 pm) The lease for me for a X Unlimited with a similar MSRP was 375 tax in for 39 months/12k a year. The car has Power convenience package the preferred package with cruise control and all that stuff. supplemental front air bag and a soft top and like a few other things. Unfortunately its not easy to find one down here with the extra air bag so my options are limited.

Replying to: felbie1 (Jul 28, 2007 5:52 am) "Employee discounts" aren't worth a whole lot (I have one too through my work), because you still have to find a dealer that will agree to give it to you for your employee price. Dealers are not obligated to honor Daimler's Affilliate Rewards program. *If* the residual were 70% as originally quoted in this thread, you could get a great lease on the wrangler. Not that 63% is bad, It's actually one of the highest of any vehicle on the market. But the .00345 money factor is one of if not the worst MF on any vehicle I have seen right now. It's not a bad lease, leasing vs Buying will still save you 100-150 a month on the new wrangler, but it's nothing spectacular. I worked for 3 weeks with a dealership on a 2dr rubicon. MSRP 31500, Purchase price would have been 28300 (100 over invoice) With 490 tax title license, 700 lease aquisition fee, 39 month, 12000 mile, 63% residual .0037MF; 435/mo with 1435 due at signing (dp and first month's payment) And That was a MAJOR chunk of work to get those numbers (they were blanking during a major sale weekend and needed the units) Which, for the record, I still didn't take the offer. Honestly, the new 08 wrangler is coming out in 2-3 months. They will be marking down the 07's significantly once the new models start rolling in. I would wait for that and see what you can scoop at year end model clearance. Waiting a few weeks paid off for me by way of the new lifetime powertrain warranty that went into effect on friday. I think I'll hold out and see what else Chrysler has up their sleeve before the year is up. |

Replying to: felbie1 (Jul 23, 2007 8:13 am)  ) with 12,000 miles per year are .00355 and 66%, respectively. Using these numbers, an MSRP of $22,655, and a selling price of $21,328 I estimate that this truck's zero down, pre-tax monthly payment should be around $293. I don't know where the dealer that you are working with came up with a monthly payment of $411 per month. Even if with sales tax, that is way too high. Even if you were to roll Chrysler Financial's $700 acquisition fee into your payment, it would only increase to around $313. You may want to consider comparison shopping with a different dealer in your area. Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum |

Hi Carman, We are planing to lease a jeep 2d 4wd WranglerX 2c model. (we r in AZ. Dealer quoted adjusted price of vehicle at 20,498. We wanted a 24 month/12K lease - and they came up with a price of $400 after $2500 down. Residual value of 14,672. Please help - i thought our payments would be about $275-$300 range. This completely blew me away. Also, residual value is based on the pre tax value - right???

Replying to: cdt1 (Jul 30, 2007 9:51 am) based on your posts, you seem to think you are "Entitled" to pay a certain payment, based on whatever buy rate is, at the desired term, resideual, and mileage requirements. It is true that you can haggle over the price of the vehicle, as well as rate and reserve, but again, that is not the point. the dealer itself has a very limited allocation, maybe 5 ... maybe 50 depending on size of the dealership and the market he is in. He has the "right" to sell that vehicle at whatever he chooses, which includes both selling price and MF markup. He has a responsibility to himself, and possibly his shareholders to get as much as possible for that "hot" seeling item, even if it is $8,000 above sticker. At no piont does he "have" to give you a thing. If you caluclate the payment to be 296, and he says he will sell it at 411, then you have a choice. buy it at 411 or move on. Plain and simple. He is forced to sell other vehciles at a loss, and therefore has the responsibility to sell these at a profit. If you do not like it, go away and find something else. To further that, based on some of your posts, it seems that many of you feel Chrysler has an obligation to keep the '08 pricing the same, and if they don't, then they must be money hungry neo-cons. How wrong you can be. Price is always detemined by demand, and if demand is high, then Chrysler has a responsibility to its shareholders, and the market in general to control demand through price. Once demand decreaes, then price will decrease. I hope Chrysler increases the price on the '08 models 25 - 50% to bring it back in line with where it should be, which the market has dictated. If that happens, let's see how many of you cry on how you should have paid full price in june, and saved 25% on a 2007 vs. a 2008. And ofcourse... it will be the dealers fault because they did not give you advance warning and were just another mmoney hungry neo-con right? Again, wise up kids and... stop giving false hope Car-Man. Your supposed to be intelligent.

Replying to: sathomps10 (Aug 02, 2007 6:58 am) But honestly, who is going to be over 400 dollars a month for a 22k dollar car? the dealer tried to rip me off, I have employee pricing, they lied to me, they refused to show me the invoice, which by chryslers standards, im "entitled" to. and for that, that dealer did not get my business, the salesman didnt get his commission, and I got my car somewhere else. |
