Question Is it a good deal? Below INVOICE??

Hi, folks

So much thanks for all your input for helping me to get the C230K. I talked with several dealers in Southern California and I am going to finalize the deal this week. Just check on the carsdirect.com and found out that they have the same car ( 2003 C230K, silver, 6sp, C7, C4, C2, CD changer) for $26,967! That's even lower than the INVOICE $27,367!?

Is it too good to be ture? As I have never able to buy a car lower than the INVOICE. I would like to know what is everyone paying for the C coupe.

Thanks for all your input in advance!

Go For It

This is a very good price especially from your area. You may get a few hundreds less elsewhere but with more wasted time and more dickering and headache. Not worth it.

I would go for it and start driving

C230 Coupe
That's a very good price, iSpy, and no, not too good to be true. Carsdirect.com gets their prices from local dealers; it is not an arbitrary number. Remember, it IS November, and this is the time dealers want to get rid of the '02s. That's a good deal.... go for it.
