Wouild like a liitle more information from those who bought.
So far the replies on the this thread show that they received discounted prices far less than invoice.
Maybe those posters could explain the circumstances on how they purchased for $2000, $3000, $4000 LESS than Invoice. Typical pricing. MSRP $55925 Invoice $52072. The invoice price is about 6.89 % less than MSRP. So far posters have received the following prices: $61,425 MSRP Got it for about $53K even that's a 13.72% discount MSRP $59,075, sales price $52,800 that's a 10.63% discount. MSRP $55,925, sales price $49,500 that's a 11.49% discount. MSRP $54895 deal was $6000 off MSRP that's a 10.93% discount. So what is the secret to getting these great deals? The dealer gets back another 5% from invoice. 3% Holdback and another 2% bonus. So it sounds like these dealers who sold for these prices made very little and one dealer even lost money. So far this thread has some great negotiators. It doesn't seem like this thread will last that long seeing not many will want to post seeing they most likely paid more. Let's hear how these great deals were obtained along with the pricing received. Thank you, |

There are great deals out there if you not lazy....if you greedy enough....and smart enough.... very simple. Another part of that - invoice that you see on Edmunds and real invoice - it's two separate things..... My dealer said they made $500 on my deal...not a lot...but I don't care ( even if they say the truth )

My deal is pretty simple, even though as you said its the best out there so far. I received invoice minus $4000 as a military discount availble only through my military credit union. If you have any other questions let me know. My dealer even told me that I was getting $2k from MB rebate and $2K from credit union rebate and normally they would never sell a specialty order vechicle like mine under or even close to invoice where they were basically losing money to rebates.

You know what boggles my mind is that I wanted a E550 but MB would not finance me for it even though I was putting $15K down and have a tier 1 credit score. But they had no problem financing me for a E350 fully loaded with all kinds of extra stuff like extend warrenty and 3m clear bra. Kinda upsetting.

Did the dealer have a good supply of 550s?

Especially if there wasn't that much profit in the sale, as your purchase price indicates. Approvals for customers with good credit scores are all computerized without the input of human analysis. Approval or disapproval happens in 30 seconds after inputting information in the system. |

Thats exactly what I thought, could've gone to another dealer and just picked up the 550 but I pretty much raped them for the price I got the 350 for and its wifey's car and she doesnt like fast cars so I guess it worked out.

I live in Toronto, Canada and i just got my E 350 November 23, 2009
Base Package MSRP $62900.00 Premium Package $3900.00 Wood/Leather Steering Wheel $850.00 Metallic Paint 0.00 Total MSRP $67650.00 DISCOUNT $3569.50 Total Sale Price $64080.50 I don't know if this is a good deal, they were only giving me the most $1800.00 discount. What i did was I used a third party to find a deal for me and this what I got. |

It would be the type of price one may be able to get at the END of a model year. For example in late August there was $6500 cash back to the dealer on 2009 MLs, and some dealers, DEPENDING on THEIR inventory levels and demand for the MLs were giving the entire $6500 back to the customer in addition to discounts from MSRP. (law of supply/demand and allocation system for inventory distribution by Mercedes.) Many car buyers think that the price they receive is most due to their negotiating skills, while in reality the purchase price is much more dependent on various factors within the dealership and the allocation system used by manufacturers. ....

The third party really did a good job for me and i got my car in one week instead of 45 to 90 days waiting period here in Toronto. The metallic paint is standard in Ontario and I got the obsidian black metallic.

Hi and new to the board.
Picking up e550 4matic this week: Sport, P2, driver assist, night vis, drive dynamic, steel grey. MSRP 73,400 and sales price 69,000 Not a great discount although I feel I got a decent price on trade. Dealer also had to hunt around a bit for my specs - car is coming in from another state. |

I am the OP.
I see people share so much stuff on different forum except money matter. Going into a dealer without any good pricing is like shooting dart in the dark. And I don't believe the invoice price you can get online is the true invoice. I hope this thread will be whoever is buying next. One may not need to beat the deal listed here, but at least get close to it. Or use it as a guide and of course every situation is different. Good luck.

You can get the invoice price and dealer holdback from Consumer Reports but you have to pay a fee. In addition I too was offered $2k incentive if I finance/lease via MBUSA.

I went to the dealer recently to get pricing on this car and my salesman said that MB did a few things different this year:
1. Lowered residual values of all their cars for leases 2. Has/will lower total production numbers and create a low supply 3. Using a higher interest rate than previous years As a result, I was sticker shocked at the new numbers. My previous deal was so much better. My lease will be up early next year but I am not sure what I am going to do. I may have to check with BMW and Audi and see if they are more flexible. Any truth to what my salesman told me? |
