Wow! I bought from Phillips Toyota a few weeks ago. Got a $2,500 discount on mine before fees. Did you get an advertised price, or negotiate that?
Anyone purchasing below MSRP?

The $4,899 discount was advertised on the Toyota site and their site…that said, when I reached out they wanted to add a $1,695 add-on package that was not part of the ad…along with their high dealer fee I told them it was not good for me and I would not pursue. Soon after they came back to me asking if I’d put a deposit if they took off that fee. So that’s what we did…so yes, there was some negotiation to get that add-on off and make it what I thought was “a good deal”. All done via text and e-mail…
At the same time they had another one with a $68,994 MSRP…that one was discounted $5,311.
I think it was just good timing…they had quite a few (9, I think) coming in around the same time. It was the only reason I bought a LC…was going to buy a 4R Pro, but being able to get a LC for just a few thousand more was a no-brainer.
That all said, your $2,500 discount is good too…the dealers near me in metro-Atlanta (EDIT: near us - I just saw you are also in Atlanta) are absolutely ridiculous with their adjustments, mark-ups, add-ons and other nonsense on any car that someone would actually want….it’s +$5k plus add’l nonsense add-ons most places.
Most importantly, I am loving my LC…so glad I got it.
The MSRP for my '24 FE Heritage Blue was $77,564 and was able to get it for $72,292.27 (not including taxes). It was the only LC on their lot and their last FE. The color was my second choice so they took an initial $1,500 off, and then I spoke with my bank and they would only finance $77,437.00 (including the taxes). I called the dealership in Columbus, that had my first choice in color, to see if they would match and they wouldn't budge from MSRP + Taxes. My first choice color was not worth $5,271.73 extra, so I bought the HB and I like it more now.
We just bought a Dusty Trail Landcruiser from McGee Toyota in Claremont, NH. MSRP was $69,500 +/- (my wife has the car today!). We were able to get $2,000 off MSRP just by asking. It was on the lot, but it was the only one that was actually there (so many dealerships have "incoming" that they lis as there!). Great buying experience. The finance guy made a mistake and offered me the 10 year 125,000 mile extended warranty for $2,200 which in retrospect, I should have taken. When I tried to negotiate to $2,000, he admitted he had made a mistake and showed me that his cost on that warranty was $2,640. I could have pushed him, but the overall experience was so good, that I didn't want to. I'm also not sure I need the extended warranty anyway - this is a Toyota, not a Land Rover!
I'm waiting for mine arriving 1st week of November. Hope to be under MSRP I'm in FL. I checked the TOYOTA Inventory website and there is some 2024 under MSRP in FL and North East. The TOYOTA website has the 2025's Land Cruiser, arriving Late November/December North East under msrp. My TOYOTA Dealer dropped the ball on a prior allocation and sold it they are willing to work under MSRP let's see. If not I'm buying out of state. Just FYI anyone looking a 2025 or last qtr of 2024 look like they are built in the TAHARA Plant I think at least mine is, I checked a couple arriving late this month TAHAR Plant built. 
Put a deposit down on a ‘24 Heritage Blue/Gray LCLC Premium with several PIOs. (MSRP $74k not including tax, etc) Was told 2-3 week wait. Negotiated $3k above KBB on my trade and another $2k off dealer mark up (for window tint, nitrogen filled tires, lo jack protection, interior-exterior environmental protection package) So, seemed like a good deal, except each time I’ve called to check status they call me back and tell me 3 weeks…2 weeks ago…3 more weeks and last week…3 more weeks. I plan to call Friday and am guessing they’ll tell me 3 more weeks. If it keeps getting delayed I may pursue something in a larger marker or a GX550 if I can find one. Kinda losing my patience…,and if I find something I won’t feel bad about “a deal is a deal” and getting the deposit back bc part of the deal was actually delivering the vehicle in the timeframe they agreed to.
I have a deposit on a 1958 model that is scheduled to arrive within 30 days or so. Toyota of Boardman Ohio and I got $3k below MSRP. It includes roof rack and steps too. I am driving 3 hours from PA to the dealer, but the savings is worth the drive. They seem to be a reputable dealer.
