Should I place an order now or wait after I attend the Love Mercedes Coupon

I will be attending the Love Mercedes Tour in Setp 19, 04 in DC. I was wondering if I should place an order on the specification that I wanted or wait until I get hold of my 1500 coupon. The dealer said the delivery time should take roughly 6 weeks which is after the tour day. Can I place the order now and present the 1500 coupon when I finalize the paper work at delivery time?

Do you plan on paying for the car outright or go through benz credit? If you are paying for the car outright, then from what I've seen, you can not use the coupon. Benz is getting their money from some where, and its coming from the APR percentage they charge you monthy.

place the order now. you should be able to use the coupon when it arrives and you are finalizing financing. when you place the order you are jsut getting the config in the system. plus by placing the order now the less youlll have to wait after the event.

I plan to finance thru MB first then pay it off after few months. Currently I am getting it 2000 below invoice and with the 1500 coupon would sweeten the deal even better.

just order the car. depending on the wait you could have to wait up to 6 months in some cases. some have been a matter of weeks. mine took about 2 1/2 from order to delivery.

Yeah, order it now like Citron said. You don't need to show the coupon until you pick up the car. You can sign and sign, but until you get the car.... then show it baby. lol

The sales tried to push me to get the pweter, at first galance inside the show room the color was to die for but when they brought it out under the sun light the felling quickly faded. I think the wife and I were moving towards the darker silver color or one of the black metallic color but really need to see the color in person. I hate to order the car base on the small color swatch from the brochure. I will ask the sales to line up all the color in a flying formation for me to pick and choose.
