I got them to throw in the mats too, which they wanted to charge me $250 for.
If anyone is looking in Dallas, ask for Frank Munoz. He was a pleasure to work with. They have a pretty good inventory of LR2s as well.

You should probably edit your post before it's deleted.
For those who already bought one, did you get an extended warranty? Did you buy from the dealer, and at what price?
Thanks!

Invoice Total= 34,111
Invoice x 4% (X-Plan)= 35,475.44
Destination= 715

Tried to get them to give it to me for 38,000 out the door, but the dealer wouldn't budge any lower as taxes in LA county are 8.25% (2993.96). So I ended up paying ~40,000. He threw in the floor mats too.
Cerritos was a very nice dealership and my salesman was polite, and not pushy at all. I will be seeing him a couple more times this week (to change out trim etc). Please feel free to ask any questions and I will respond as soon as I can.
I really appreciate everyone posting on these forums. It was really helpful when I was purchasing my LR2!

See the internet manager. No hassle no haggle kinda guy. Very cool.
Any comments about the buying experience, what to ask for, how many dealers did you look at..will be much appreciated.
Cold, Tech, Light (the fab three) :shades:
Deliver in month - Nazca Sand - Ebony Int
i know my userID is LR3, but I'm getting LR2 - typo (ugg)
Where did you buy it?
oh, and congrats
payments for me 400 - ekk 700 :surprise: no gap here due to DP.
did they say what was up with the ignition switch? quality issues already - lets hope not.
oh, and i got 4.4% from my credit union :shades:
Importing fees and taxes really hurt us here.
But I'm loving my LR2! :P
$36560 OTD is really a fantastic price. :surprise:
Can you tell us where you get it?
I'm buying no later the end of the month. Hope I can get a similar deal.
Thanks a bunch.
counting the days.. .. . .
I'm very interested in the LR2. The sales rep at Miramar Land Rover in San Diego told me that if I were to purchase the LR2 at any other dealer and bring it into Miramar for servicing, etc, that I should expect "poor service" from the sales reps since I didn't purchase it from them. But, my question is, do you even deal with the sales rep when you want to service? Is anyone experiencing this? Thanks!
The best so far is $2000 off MSRP.
He is just trying to close the deal by using that!
When you go to service you see a service advisor not a sales person. And service advisors make their money when you go there and not only that land rover sends you surveys after the service and if they mess up anywhere in the process and you give them a bad score, they loose thousands of dollars, I had a dealer give me a 2 full tanks of gas and 2 full details once on my Jaguar, because they did not fix the car when it was promissed! And i did not even a buy a car from them.
Another thing is since the car is covered under free maintenance program for every 7500 miles and factory warranty any dealer will beg for your business to service it.
So just buy the car where best deal is and go to your localdealer with other dealers paperplates on the car and piss that sales guy off.
I have a LR delaer literally five blocks away from where i live. Same deal the sales guy was telling me you live close to us and blah,blah,blah. He only gave me $1000 off, then he called me and said $1500 off. But the internet manager from hornburg in west la gave me a much better deal, and I have been reading the forum, so far i think i got the best deal by far. He gave me mats and He even offerred to deliver the car to me in pasadena. But I wanted to go there myself.
It sucks that some of the delaers take an advantage of being the only one in the neighborhood trying to rip peoples heads off. But guess what here I am with a much better deal, the guy from my neighborhood dealer did not get anything.
Just get in touch with the internet guy, take a train down to west hollywood, buy a car and drive it back. And spend the savings on something else.
And besides all that, I can service my car for free anywhere i want, and I called up my local dealer and the service advisor said he will give me a loaner car if i service my car there. And if they dont, guess what I will trash them on a survey and complain to Land Rover USA, that I am being treated bad. Lets see what they say then.
Good luck with your purchase!
Thanks again!
* 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.
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!
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.
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.
In the meantime, enjoy your ride! :shades:
He offered me to let me have the LR2 overnight. I kept it overnight and returned it the next day -- still no sale.
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!!
buy what you budget will allow, if not happy with that level, or trim level and options, then this may not be the vehicle for you.
I was set in just getting the lr2 with cold pack. But I really loved the nav etc on the demo. All previous cars, I've always held back - oh, I'll get that opion next time, or I'll give that up or that up. this time, I said NO. I'm getting what I want and be happy, and not have to live with, I wish I had this or that.
Plus, I had them in stall running boards, ipod adapter, and the side door protectors. Not regrets - very a happy. Or I will be in about a week when I get it.
If you taking the time to research what you want for a car, ensure you do that with they options as well, you won't regret it.
But I believe there is truth to all the "out of area" talk. I live in Houston, and when I couldn't get a deal I thought was good from the 2 dealers here (owned by the same corporation) I started contacting dealers further away. A friendly sales guy in San Antonio told me that Land Rover discourages selling out of area by penalizing dealers on some of their marketing incentives. He also indicated that I might get "poor" service from my local dealer when I took it in for maintenance. He advised me to keep working out a deal with my local dealers and as a last resort start looking out of area.
I thought this all sounded strange, but why would he advise me to go to another dealer? Then I started to negotiate with a dealer near New Orleans. When he found out I live in Houston, he told me he was unable to sell me a car.
I got so discouraged with the Land Rover experience I wound up buying another car. Anyone can get a good deal on a Chevy or a Mazda if they shop around, but with Land Rover you're at the mercy of your local dealer.
But since you bring it up, there are NO other makes in the same class as Land Rover... as far as build quality and reliability are concerned. Good luck.
I made a few inquiries to dealerships, 1 of the 3 said they could not work with me because I am not in their area. I still am leaning towards the CA dealership if a more local one won't come close to the lowest price I can find elsewhere.
I agree, I should just get what I want in terms of options I suppose. I really want to cold package. The nav system seems like an unnecessary luxury although I do want it.
Well their is business builder to think about and it is allocated by zip code. Land Rover dealers that sell outside their zip code risk losing allocation and business builder bonus money.
But yeah the other thing was crap.
