Hi All,

So I've been in the market for an F type for a while and while I've found a few good examples of used F types around, Im seeing now that the price on new F types is falling.
If thats the case, what do you all think is the best price I can possibly get for a 400 sport or R dynamic? As far as I know, almost none of these cars are going for sticker.
Distance is not a problem.

 

You can't order a brand new 400 Sport any more, it has now been discontinued.
But there are probably a few near new / barely used / dealer demos around and if distance is not a problem you should be able to find a good deal on one.

 

Past history has demonstrated that the lowest prices are obtainable in the September to December time frames as it appears that JLR waits until then to provide dealers incentives to liquidate their stock by the end of the year. So, if you are trying to get the best deal you may need to wait another 6 months. I was able to get 24% off my November '17 purchase. Of course, you can run into a complication of limited stock as the months go by. There were only two '17 IRR coupes available in the USA when I bought mine. I had an SVR lined up in October and it was sold in less than a week. By the time I bought my R there were no SVR's available other than a demo with nearly 5K miles on it.

 

Monroeville Jaguar, located just east of Pittsburgh, had a black convertible F type 400 in their showroom last week. As I remember, it's sticker was just over $100K, but I'm sure you can see it on their website. I just bought my Type R there last Wednesday and saw it in the showroom. There was an $11,000 rebate from Jaguar (or a crap finance interest rate of 1.99%....now that's a no brainer!) on my Type R, and it or something close to it, I believe, was on the 400. I was told Jaguar is trying to help the dealers dump their inventory because the 2019's are being released sometime in the near future.

 

It's actually called A & L Motors in Monroeville, Jaguar and Land Rover..........

 

FWIW, my local dealer has a black on black sport 400 coupe marked down to 89,500 from 102K, maybe they'll go lower... On the other hand for that money you probably should be getting a discounted 'R'.

2016 F-Type R - 232 Miles $84,400

That is a '16 and I paid the same for a '17 so you need to be aware that the book value for a '16 is around $7K less than it would be for a '17. Notice how the KBB valuation for that one is "info currently unavailable" which gives you an idea. A '16 vert AWD R with 3K miles sold at auction in January for $67,800 so maybe with 2,700 miles it's worth ...$70K maybe? Probably better to buy a '17 or '18 model unless you can steal this one for $15K under their asking price

 

There are quite a few 2018 400's around $86K...

And R-Dynamics starting around $80K...

Seems like $11k incentive on '18 is spreading iof listed prices are any indication,so maybe $20k off on higher priced models. My dealer has no '18's and 6 '17's, mostly black R coupe's.

 

Now that is a bargain!

 

Not really as others were buying these in the low $90Ks back in November of '17. I had just barely missed an IDENTICAL white vert SVR for ~$93K at that time or financed lease @ .00003 MF for ~$98K

 

Back then there was $30k Jag money on SVR.

 

Actually closer to $40K but yes, I was just pointing out that there were some deals made and if one was looking into this vert SVR they may want to check out lease swap or other places where buyers at that time might be willing to sell or flip for about $10K less. Heck, for $85K, I'd buy out my lease balance and sell them my R w/3K miles & save them $18K & they'd have nearly the same car... well, mine is a coupe & it's red and ... nevermind. LOL!!!

I guess what I was really trying to say is that they should lowball that one with a $90K offer and they just may be happily surprised
