No idea what the market is like in the US. I was under the impression that if you wanted one, you would have to wait. Perhaps he wanted one ahead of the crowd.

It's either not a Grenadier or not licensed in the USA for personal use maybe or as some have mentioned before brought over by a military service member.
I agree. I think i have nearly every option and mine was $92k. That said, my calls to Ineos have been met with “there will be additional cost from dealer”. Not sure what that means but would like to think it isn’t that large.
Where in charlotte? I live there and am in Raleigh often. Would gladly spy any of the above. I am not even sure where the Raleigh office is now. My one visit for the first prototype was at a temporary set up.
I was digging around the business registrations websites and saw an address that could be theirs.
Thanks. Let me look this up. The precious location was 1053 E Whitaker Mill Rd STE 111, Raleigh, NC 27604
Those two addresses back up to each other... separated by train tracks
F that! I am having enough doubts about this company already, and they've already gone $20K over their original estimated starting price. They can keep it and I'll get a proven 4x4 again for 2/3 the price.
The costs they are talking about are any dealer specific fees, such as documentation fees.
Well, i am going to hang around and listen. I also received the “we expect dealers not to change the prices or they will not be our dealer for long”. Frankly, i am not clear on the business model which they have admitted is different for the US versus other markets. If a dealer is holding “spec” inventory”, i would understand a mark up. I could even understand for pre sales a “facilitation charge” even though i would begrudge it believing there is not much they do. Either way, we are suppose to hear soon or others that already have their dealer identified may be able to clear it up.
Thanks. Sounds like we sound them. I am in Raleigh Thursday and Friday this week. I may pay them a visit.
If you're right then I have no problem, but lately, when dealers in the US talk about extra fees, they usually mean tacking on fake "services" or "market adjustments" that cost $20K. I've had my fill of that. I'm sure a lot of dealers will try it though.
I get it. I have watched it personally and want no part in it. I would love to have a local relationship with a “dealer” and willing to pay for that but this was sold (at least in my mind) as a different experience from the beginning and i don’t want that changing now. Either way, i love the vehicle versus the choices out there and think it will only go up in value. I also think after waiting years, i am willing to give them a little more time to flush this out. Hang in there.
@Ovrland Bill do you happen to have a screenshot of the page when you had the build window stated as to the one now where its blank?
Sorry to derail the thread, I am also looking for a Yukon/Tahoe/Escalade for my wife. Which trim are you looking at? Do you know if the Denali's are available and/or at MSRP? Have you also checked Tahoes and Escalades?
A good friend's dad just grabbed a new Yukon XL Denali Ultimate with the Duramax here on the East coast at 10k over MSRP; both my friend and his dad have been on the hunt for a Duramax Yukon for quite some time and he jumped on this one when he saw it was available.
