My dealer just called to let me know that my SRT8 is at the rail yard and will be at the dealership by 10:00 tomorrow... After such a long wait, I'll believe it when I drive off in it!
I picked mine up today... Definitely a beast... To tie up this thread, I ended up paying $62,425 (MSRP $63,975) for mine. Hope this helps those who are in the negotiation stage .
My dealer is giving me Affiliate Pricing, which he says is 1% below invoice. I'm not an experienced auto wheeler dealer so how do I find invoice price....will he actually show me the invoice? Could someone give me the actual breakdown for 1% below invoice for: 2012 Jeep SRT8 base+ luxury package+ dual pano sunroof+ premium audio system. Is it realistic to ask for a bigger discount? If so, how much? I'm reasonably friendly with my dealer.... could I ask for the DSI (designated special individual) or whatever it's called?

So realistically, you paid around $65,500+ or so unless you had a significant trade. Congrats, and I commend you, because I do not think most here are willing to pay that. Hope you thoroughly enjoy the truck though and it stays trouble free.
The price I mentioned was before tax, title, etc. With the variability between states, the out-the-door price is not really comparable.
To answer an earlier question, after owning the car for 23 hours, I have had no problems with the paddle shifters or steering. I am taking it somewhat easy during the break-in period.
The compartment door beneath the radio head unit sticks a bit, and the dealer agreed to replace it if it doesn't improve with use. Otherwise, I am thoroughly impressed with the truck.
Shaggy1, Comparing your deal to the price protected deals doesn't really make sense. I think you got a nice deal. I'm betting that most people ordering now will pay close to MSRP and possibly more. Congrats on your new SRT8!!! :thumbsup:
If you ever found that in writing, you would be sitting on a very large and expensive lawsuit against those dealers. You might be given a new SRT8 just to settle.
Just curious and only 2nd. post, getting a 2012 Laredo with 26X package, V6 in January. In that 60-70 price region there are some other nice products to choose from such as Evoque, Cayenne, X5, M-Class, Touareg...but with lesser engines I suppose.
I bought mine for invoice ($64k and change loaded, pano) before taxes, title, etc. I did however have a large trade-in so the taxes weren't that bad. I really hate hearing from people saying "that's a lot for a jeep." Go drive it and then come back and talk to me. More importantly it's what I wanted and my money.
