I have a guy who wants to sell me his 2008 Rubicon, 1,300 miles. Flame red, dual tops, every option but navigation. He wants $27,000. I offered him 26.. Is 27,00 a good deal? I can get a fully loaded sahara with nav for $26,300. Any help would be greatful, thanks

Personally, knowing what I paid for my fully loaded 4-Door Rubicon, I'd say NOOOOO. There is a thread on here somewhere about how much people paid for their JK's.

I don't think that is horrible. That is probably a $35,000 sticker on that rig and you could probably get a brand new rubi loaded similiar for $26,000 and also get a lifetime powertrain warranty with it. Ball is in your court, offer him $25k and see what he says. You'd be surprised what people will sell something for in tough times.

the sticker was 34 and change. New from the dealer I priced out around 29,000. Is there really much ride difference between the rubicon and sahara? Some people i talked to hate the rubicon ride and say the sahara rides like a car.

34K sticker 2009 rubis go for 29.5K here. That sounds like a horrible deal without a lifetime warranty.

A left-over brand new 2008 rubi that stickers for $34k can be had for much less than $29.5k

I paid $30,606 out the door for my 2008 Rubicon loaded and with My Gig. I would think you could do considerably better than I did. I always go in with the attitude I am at least going to be skinned a little bit.
Whatever you do I wish you luck and a wonderful Holiday Season.

I talked a dealer in my area today. I am gonna buy a fully loaded Sahara for $26,700..Good deal??? My only problem now is picking the color.. BLACK OR SILVER!

go silver, the silver looks awesome, check out "SGT.EVIL" Besides black will look dirty more often. Unless of course you're in a particularly rainy part of the country then it really won't matter. Here in Cali Silver is popular cause it always looks clean. Of course that's why I got Jeep Green.

I paid $28,200 for my 09 Rubi 2dr.......I would say if he drops it to about 24 your getting a good deal.
