Hi Everyone,
I am close to purchasing a 2007 C280 4-matic. I have been reading this forum for the past few weeks and have learned alot. Thanks to all .
I do have a couple of questions before I take the plunge. There are large amounts of C280's at my local dealers with low miles (6k-16k). They are all loaner cars that are now being sold off. Is there anything I should be concerned about buying a loaner car?
The price that they are all asking is $25,995. They are Certified Pre-Owned with sunroof, 6-cd changer and rear sun shade. Any thoughts on what price is realistic to expect when negotiating? I would love to pay a few thousand less, but not sure if that is asking to much.

Thanks,
Bob

 

check the manheim thread, and ask wendy how much the c280s are going for. it'll help you better negotiate with the dealer.

 

yes bob! there are concerns buying loaner cars. if you are from NY and is looking at Manhattan Mercedes. I used ta take a lot of 280s out and beat the heck out of them.

and if you ARE going there. PM me. I'll let my sales manager know. He'll get you a good deal.

 

Mu9enx,
Thanks for pointing me to that thread. I ended up being able to work a price I was happy with, and put a deposit down today.

advans,
I am on Long Island. I have read many posts here from people who have put loaner's through thier paces. Hopefully none of you guy's beat on my car to bad in the past

I ended up with a black on black C280 4-matic. I can't wait to pick it up in a few day's.

 

congratz!
