Asked a dealer to match a price....
Absolutely true. I've always gotten free loaners from service departments even when I didn't purchase a car from that dealership. We bought our current Mercedes at a far-away dealer, but have it serviced close to home. We always get a new MY MB as a loaner.
Recently I thanked the service manager for that and commented, "you sure treat us well, even though we didn't buy the car here." His response was with a big smile on his face, "that's the sales department's problem not mine, and I want to make sure you come back here every time you need service, so I can make my revenue targets."

One more point. Jaguar is insist. that they leave the dealers to their own, and stay away from getting involved in their business. A lot of the service statements or issues on this forum reflect that "hands off policy". I don't think Jaguar gets involved on what is sold where as much as this thread implies. Could be wrong, but after talking to a lot of dealers this past year, I haven't come across a lot of this or any of this. It was usually dealing with the trade that was the issue (real or a smoke screen to make me go away). Who knows?
So the I did the test drive on Saturday, wow that car screams!!!
Unfortunately, they told me lease rates have gotten worse and quoted me at 1457.00 a month in addition to 5k due at signing. (7500k miles, 36mth lease).
That made my decision easier, I will definitely be holding off until I can get a better deal. I could buy a decent house or 2 decent cars for that price....

If I said 2015 in past posts that was my mistake. Msrp is 111k, "agreed selling price" was 99,xxx.

I just do not see how you can pay half that with nothing down and an R. Nothing I can do will make the number come out that low unless the cap cost is down in the range of a discounted S or Base. What were your numbers?

my 2015 R lease before the monthly tax is just about half of that as well with nothing down.
My residual was .56, mf .002. The cap cost on my car would need to have been less than $80,000 for me to have a lease payment in that ballpark. On a $109,000 car, I just cannot see how a dealer would do that.
I am just trying to understand for the next time. I was satisfied with my deal!

Agreed, definitely not a deal. They said currently Jaguar's offers are geared toward selling the 2016 instead of leasing them...
