Thanks Tarry!

Tarry I'm sure I'm speaking in behalf of many forum members here when I thank you for the information you are providing.
Many times you walk in a dealership you feel blindfolded in an embarrassing game where the other part know the rules while you have to learn as you go. I think the only thing you should negotiate when buying a car is the price you are willing to pay above the INVOICE.
Tarry is providing the MF and Residual, Edmunds is providing the invoice price, the only thing we need are the incentives offered by MB FS to become informed consumers.
I think MBWorld community would benefit tremendously if sponsors would have the courage to step up to the plate with this info. One of the reasons I keep returning to BMW (aside from excellent cars, but in many respects comparable to MB, Audi) is the transparency of the process, and the info available on Bimmerfest. I'm sure I would have no problem driving an E350 if is a better deal than 528i I'm driving now.
Happy driving!

Price to pay above invoice? My Slk was about 5k below invoice.

Neverthless, the information here is invaluable!

Exactly, mac911. The question is how much below invoice can the dealers go and what are people getting offered from the dealers with incentives.

Thanks for the comments!

Sometimes we get the deals, sometimes MBC does. Give all the info and let the consumer decide what is best for them.

Point taken! Incentive = money below invoice.
