Wow! That's exactly what I wanted to hear. Thanks so much for your response. This is my first time purchasing a brand new car (can't you tell), and I'm still trying to distinguish what's truth and what's BS. Also, I'm definitely not a negotiator. Oh, we sent an email to the Newport Beach dealer and he told us the sticker price is $40k??!! Ridiculous! So, any tips on how you got your awesome deal would be MUCH appreciated!
 
Thanks again!

I went to the closes LR dealer to my house (there are two in Sacramento). He told me that:
 
* No LR dealer from outside of Sacramento would sell me a car because I was "out of area" and LR would deduct one car from their next allocation
 
* He could not go lower than sticker price because that sticker and the price were there by Federal law and they could not deviate from it.
 
After I stopped laughing, I walked out.

You are welcome, there is always a first time. Well I did my research and found out that there is no incentives on the LR2 other than 4.9% apr. The car is so new, they dont want to put out any incentives. So all you have is a difference between MSRP and invoice. SO i found a guy who would not mess around and gave me the price closest to the invoice, and I went with it. No hassle no haggle. I read other peoples posts as well, and indeed it was the best deal by far. I also picked up a phone and called another 2 dealers, just to make sure, but they told me that it is impossible to get a deal like that, and that the guy will trick me, but that was not the case, i went there in and out, and paid exactly what we agreed on without any surprises.
 
Just e-mail the internet manager at hornburg in west hollywood and tell him to give you the deal he gave me or maybe better, I got like $400 over invoice. He should remember me, my name is Gary.
  
Thats all.
 
Good luck!

Biggest load of crap.
 
I am glad you laughed about it and walked out,
these guys are funny. How could somebody say no to a sale? I cant see anyone saying , oh no we cant sell it to you, you dont live here. That is soooo stupid.

Wow!
May be this guy used to be selling cars in north Korea.
But, I think this is a pretty good idea. We would actually save money since car buying would be much simpler. Pick out a car in the lot, test drive with an attendant, pay at the register, done.

You're right, 4.9% is the only incentive right now because it's so new. Thanks again for the advice!! Truly appreciate it! Hopefully, Hornburg would work the same deal for me. I'll give it a shot!
In the meantime, enjoy your ride!

Drive safe this weekend! The cool thing about it is I have YET to see the LR2 on the road. But I have a feeling this LR is going to be a popular one. You're lucky you got one with such a good deal. Cruise well...

Yeah, I could smell the b/s from a mile away. When I was leaving he came out running to the parking lot to try to convince me.
 
He offered me to let me have the LR2 overnight. I kept it overnight and returned it the next day -- still no sale.

Do I get the extra options now or later? by stephie1

Hi everyone, I have been following this post for a little while, I have been researching many different vehicles, and think I like the LR2 best for what I am seeking in a new ride.
Here's my question...I would like to maybe work with this West Hollywood internet dealer, even though I am on the East Coast right now, it seems like his deals are worth it. I had a local quote here for a base model for $34.5...doesn't seem like much of a deal to me.
 
I am seeing that from reading posts that you can get a "base" model for about 32.5 from the West Hollywood dealership, right? So, I am wondering if I can get the extras such as technology package and lighting package (I want the fancy headlights...although they are mostly bought for show, right? Not really necessary for most drivers?) Anyway, I am thinking I should keep things simple and just get a simple deal at the lowest price, and then come back and have the options such as the different packages put in after I purchase the vehicle...is this dumb? Is it best to just get it added onto your initial negotiation and take home the vehicle as you would want it ideally? I would like to keep initial costs down as low as possible but want to eventually get the extra features...what do you think it the best way to save money...get the extras now or get them put on later in my own time and as I budget it out? Also, do you haggle on a price that includes the dealer fee and tax?
 
THANK YOU FOR ANY ADVICE!!
