I just bought an 05 C230 about 3 weeks ago from there. I had the best buying experience I or my family ever had. My salesman was Shawn Bressman and he was very good and I would recommend him. Peter McInnis is the Internet manager and he is also recommended.

Talk to Chip Snyder. He's a pretty good guy - tell him Derek sent you and he'll take care of you. I've known him for a long time now and he'll work with you to get you whatever you want pretty inexpensively. I bought my 320 from him last year.

LOL, my experience with Peter was not good. I called him not to long before i bought my C55 and i asked when they are getting C55s in. And his words were "sir, C55 are not comming out for another year and a half!" At that point i actually already had my C55 bought but i was awaiting delivery just to see one. But right before i hung up i said of really? a year and a half huh? i might swing by in one next week and ask for u. Hehe. he said he was looking forward to it. :p

Man that is pathetic! I didn't really work with him, I worked with Shawn only because Peter was not in that day. So I guess I was lucky.

And to all salesman who know less than they should about new models...

p.s. I love your C55 pics from the other thread! I saw one in person last week at MB Ft.Lauderdale in Black and it was sweet.

Yea, I have bought my '02 C-230 from there. I also have an order, which is a 2005 C-230 SS. It is supposed to come either today or tommarow. Overall I am happy with the communication and service.

The MSRP on my C is 39,220. I have a C-spot coupon worth $1,500.00. My salesmen is Sam Fromen. The options are: Lighting Package, Entertainment package, Comand, Brilliant silver, auto. transmission, power seat package (not for pass. seat), Tele-Aid, and Sunroof package. When my car comes, expect ALOT of pictures!

By the way, if anyone needs any help with mods/StarDiagnose upgrades etc, I know a great service tech from FLL MB that is willing to help us out. I believe he charges $50 for any Diagnose software changes - I know others have gotten them for free - but I know down here, it's been a pain. He also has his own lift, etc for others mods.

Just thought I'd share the information for other FLL MB heads ...

Shoot me an email as needed
