Hi All,
Below jeep is offered for 54,000 out the door ( including taxes, other fee) . The Jeep has about 18000 miles on it. Looks has all kind of upgrade, my main interest is the 1 touch skytop, which is very rare to find but I feel this is atleast 4,000 to pricy, Any suggestion for negotations ?

It seems to have every option available under the sun. Wranglers hold their value ridiculously well.

When I picked one up years ago I decided it was just easier to buy a new one. I drove it for 3 years, 60K miles, and traded it in for 65% value of the MSRP.

Another factor is you don’t know who drove it and how/where they drove it. I know mine was leaking testosterone fluid from doing tons of stupid, manly stuff when I traded it in.

In conclusion you should find exactly what you want at a dealership or (more likely) do a custom order.

Sorry I didn’t see this earlier, but I wasn’t tagged on your reply.

They bought that Jeep at auction on 11/23 for $44,200. So, yes, $54k OTD is very high. But since I don’t know your taxes and fees, I can’t be specific.

My personal goal at this pricepoint, plus taxes and fees, would be $47k-$47.5k. In NJ, that would put me at $51k OTD. You can get into details such as if they had to put on new tires and/or brakes. If it needs any work, start deducting.

Thanks. I doubt if the deal is goin thru. When you asked for VIN , i assumed some info should be available somewhere & I found that this car was listed at 44k earlier. So I put an offer for 45,200 & their very dry counter offer was 50k + taxes etc. So I did persue it further. One other gentleman recommended to get a new one & I also felt that I can get a new one out the door with around 54/55k. So decided now to wait for a better deal to show up.
Thanks for your help though
