Quote: To each his own I guess. I personally feel I got a good deal at $1K below invoice ($2.5K total with the coupon), and don't really mind paying an extra 750.00 to support a local dealer (less than a mile away from work, and 5 miles from home). With the perks I get for buying from FJM, I guess it's worth it. Parking the car at FJM while we travel in the years we'll have this car will pay for itself in ridiculous airport parking fees saved. And while I never let anybody wash my cars, I appreciate the free car wash anytime gesture.

Anyway, the point is, I got the car for $1K under invoice, and that's a good deal to me!
wow you work a mile from there? i work right across the street over at the hewitt building at bayview circle. heh, how funny.

anyways, whats this free car wash thing you talked about.. i want to drop my car off there for a free carwash. heh.

Please don't get me wrong in my statements........ For you the perks and your location to FJM make it a good place to buy I have just noticed the change in the quality of service, deals and personal over the last 25 years there. The disrespect of people from salesman and the amount of times complaints are brushed off.
I do wish you the best in your future dealings with FJM.

Quote: Definitely cool. Although sometimes I get kind of impatient because of how slowly the seats and the steering wheel moves back into position. Coming from the Audi, the MB is much more upscale in terms of features.
That seems like a good price to me for the fully loaded sedan. Was this before of after the taxes. Anyways you got a really nice car. Your wifey should be very happy to have you. Take care.
