Are you a current or recent car shopper who bought an EV and then installed solar – or who had solar already, making the decision to go electric easier?
OR
Are you a recent EV buyer (past 3 months) as a result of manufacturer incentives and dealer discounts on these vehicles, including year-end deals? Were you convinced to buy an EV after finding a good end-of-year deal, or due to uncertainty around which EVs will no longer qualify for full/partial EV tax credits in 2024? A national business reporter is interested in speaking with you. Please reach out to [email protected] by 12/15 if interested in sharing your story.

I was curious if you had found anyone with a certificate because I am looking for one myself... also how did you save so much money on your sport? I am looking to purchase one in the next couple of weeks and REALLY would love to save some money! Any help fro you or any others would help this california girl!!!
I just picked up a 2008 RRS for my wife. White, Ivory seats with Zebrano wood. Options were lux & sat.
In seattle (actually bellevue) paid xplan (cost + 4% & the marketing fees)
It's a great looking car.

Thanks!
Salesman was fuzzy over phone on exact price but around 61 k or so and money factor around .00025. I don't care about residual because I will turn it back in.
12k miles, 36 mos, 946.00 inc tax and 5500 drive off.
How does this compare to what you are seeing? I am meeting with the dealer in about 36 hours and will probably do the deal unless someone can tell me I am overpaying. Thank you to all.
FYI, I pushed for a better deal by canceling the meeting and telling them I was going to wait 2 months as my X5 does not come off its lease until January (which is true) and also to determine if they would have any additional price enhancement.
They did not budge and told me that it was their best deal and that I could take my chances on an equal (if available) or worse deal in 2 months. So I am going to take the deal as Marin County, California where I live tends to have alot of people that walk in, whip out the checkbook and pay full sticker, so the dealers don't sweat it much.
The large down payment is because my wife would rather pay more upfront and have lower monthlies. I know it doesn't make economic sense but like all married people I have learned to pick my battles.
Thanks again.

Ah do I ever know that. I see that all the time. I just delivered a LR3 to someone who did the exact same thing. He put about 3,000 dollars more down then he wanted to get the payment where his wife was more comfortable.
Have you tried the SF dealer too? I've found that when you use the edmunds quote thing, SF gives a very competitive price in-line with the market; and Marin will usually come close to matching it.
I agree about it being tough when our neighbors just walk in and write a check for whatever amount the sales gentleman/lady tells them too.
thanks for your feedback.
Thanks
p.s. Our zip code is 84040(UT) if that matters.
2008 RR HSE w/ lux pkg. $82,450 MSRP, 30 month 15k per year. $1632/mo, $2000 down(first month+ doc fee or whatever.)
Any thoughts?
A new '08 full-size RR HSE with rear DVD and 20" wheels - best price so far is $82k.
An '07 full-size RR SC pre-owned with 9k on the clock - best price so far is $78k.
I have seen posts re using coupons and dealers passing on marketing support discounts to buyers.
Would be v.grateful for input on what people have paid or what sort of reductions are realistic.
Price on the Supercharged Model seems on the high side IMO.
I think there is a manufacture incentive for January of $5000 on '08HSE's - so I would think (hope) I could get a better discount than what is offered so far..?
There is an incentive of 5,000 dollars on 2007 Range Rover HSEs. There are only a couple of dozen unsold 2007 Range Rovers left in the whole country.
EDIT:
I just checked there are 70 unsold 2007 Range Rovers showing for the entire US and Puerto Rico.
2008 Range Rover Supercharged Diamond Mesh Grill
2008 Range Rover Supercharged Diamond Mesh Fins
I'm looking to purchase a 2008 Range Rover HSE in the future. I know the cost of the Luxury Interior Package ($4,500/$4.095) and the 20" 7-Spoke Alloy Wheels ($4,000/$3.640), but I need the cost (invoice and MSRP) for the Supercharged Mesh grill and fins. The Supercharged is to expensive but I like it's look, so I figured I get the look without the cost. I know I won't have the engine but that's fine.
- Thank You
THE COUPON IS VALID AFTER MAKING YOUR BEST DEAL AS THE COUPON IS PAID TO THE DEALER DIRECTLY FROM LAND ROVER. THE COUPON CAN BE USED FROM NOW UNTIL MARCH 31, SO ANY OF YOU IN THE MARKET WHO WANT TO SAVE MONEY, PLEASE POST YOUR INTEREST
Good luck!
It's attitudes like their's that drive companies/brands into the ground. I am in the process of buying Land Rover number two. Later Bellevue........

I am from the LA area and am looking to purchase an 08 RRS with luxury pkg in cash. How much off of MSRP should I expect? Has anybody had any favorable experiences with dealerships in the LA area? Any recommendations? Thank you.
any good dealers on east coast to deal with? I'm in VA.
Can I expect to buy for a few hudred over invoice?

Are you serious? The Range Rover Sport is Land Rover's best selling model in the US and one of the hottest SUVs on the market even two and a half years after it came out. Only about 3,000 Supercharged Sports are brought into the US a year and there are no incentives on them so I don't see any dealer selling one for a few hundred over invoice.
I would like to hear thoughts/opinions on deal I have with a dealer here in Boston.
Lease-RRS HSE 08, Black/Ivory, Lux pkg, Sirius radio. MSRP - $62,400
48 mth/12K, $3000 cap reduction, MF - 0.0017, Residual = 41%, $730 mth plus 5% tax.
That is not a deal it is just the way a Sport leases.
Pull that 3,000 dollars of cap cost out and add in sales tax to the lease and you will be at over 1,000 dollars a month.
$875 + $65 tax + $166 (down payment divided by 30 months) = $1106.
That is in the ballpark, but I would try to get it down to around $1050 per month. They are messing with you on the residual and MF. Interest rates are going way down. Do you plan on buying the truck after you lease? I've dealt with these leases for a long time, they always trick you. first decide if you are going to buy the car (or want the option to do it without getting raped) and then do the math. I would try to get out the door with $1050 per month and 2000 down out the door.
Thanks again.
Secondly interest rates have gone down but Land Rover lease programs are quarterly and the big interest rate drops happened after the start of the quarter. Land Rover won't adjust the lease programs till after the end of the quarter.
And lastly Land Rover leases are always going to be higher on a similar MSRP vehicle compared to BMW, Audi, Mercedes etc. because Land Rover's volume is so much lower. Land Rover can't afford to put all the incentives behind the lease that the other makes do.
I have been dealing with my local dealer in Nashville, tn (my experience with them so far has been a joke) but it seems that a certified vehicle from them is the way to go . What I really want to know is which of the 2 lux vehix would be the better choice from a repair and maintenance standpoint. I've heard mixed reviews?? Please help.

30 months at $969+tax
Drive off (1st month, 595 bank fee, DMV fees) = 2,000
MSRP $64,900
Price $60,395
Residual 60%
MF .00267
Let me know what you think.
Thanks in advance.

YOU WILL NEED THE EMPLOYEE TO GIVER THEIR SOCIAL AND HAVE THEM PUT THE PIN NUMBER IN YOUR NAME WITH YOUR SOCIAL. I THINK BUYING ONE IS 4% OVER INVOICE. MINUS ANY REBATES OR INCENTIVES WE HAVE IF THE DEALER WILL LET YOU DO IT.
I HOPE THIS HELPS. MOST OF THE CUSTOMERS ALREADY HAVE A PIN NUMBER.
and the range rover vogue?
