I thought I just ordered a new LR2 HSE on Saturday but now I have been told that the order can't actually be placed until the first week of March by the dealer. Is this normal?

How did you do on the price ? Did you get close to the $500 over invoice you mentioned in a previous post?

I paid $500 over invoice but got into an argument with the dealer as to what the invoice price was. In the end, I agreed that the invoice price included his $340 rag fee for advertising the car. He showed me an invoice which included this fee. I refused to and did not agree to pay the mandatory charge for the floor mats.They will be thrown in. I also refused to agree to pricing at time of delivery which is another thing the dealer tried to slip by me notwithstanding boilerplate to the contrary on their own form.

Looks like you got what you wanted in the end? From reading previous posts I gather the "advertising fee" is legit? What state and/or what dealer did you deal with?

That is the right RAG(Regional Advertising Group) for the new york market.

Is it customary to charge the buyer for this fee. I never paid it for any other make or model of a car.

It is on the invoice and is a real part of the cost to the dealer.

Thanks. I thought the Edmunds invoice price was the gospel but there is a footnote about advertising costs.
