LR3 prices continue to fall

[denisimo]

why are you posting about land rovers when you know nothing about them? incorrect information does no good for anyone else reading that may not know the truth. your numbers are not accurate regardless of the vehicle being used for example. obviously there was no "lr3 15 years ago". the pricing on an equivalent discovery did not double from 1997-2012. pricing 15 yrs ago was about $38k and the current equivalent model is about $60k.

Its a very simple magic trick.

New 1998 Disco is 39,000msrp, plug in same numbers in to calculator and it comes to 47k.

What are you smoking? How can you compare a base Discovery I price with a tricked out HSE Lux? http://www.truecar.com/prices-new/land-rover/lr4-pricing/

1) Taken from your link.

There are currently no TrueCar Certified Dealers offering Guaranteed Savings on this 2012 Land Rover LR4

2) The price varies from State to State and Geographical location of dealer, time of the year and how much of a prick a dealer wants to be, thus MSRP price was chosen.

Now we going to use this calculator; http://www.onlineloancalculator.org/

I will use no options, 5 year term, 6% sales tax and 7.5% Interest rate.

Disco LSE @ 38,625 = $49,224.22
LR4 HSE Lux @ 58,995 = $75,184.03


So now i will quote my self;

If you bought a brand new Disco/lr3/lr4 15 years ago, it would cost in high $40k. Today you paying close to $80k.

Here's a 2005 LR3 for $11,000. The ad doesn't list miles driven, so it's got to be a high number.

Thanks for the post reassures me that I never want to buy a new vehicle, let alone a land rover.

Financing a vehicle equally dumb.

7.5% interest rate??? What did you rob banks and max out credit cards when you were younger? I'm 23 and I've never gone above a 3.5% interest rate on the 6 loans I've had.
