- Black MB-Tex

Got it $42800 out the door (7% tax included), 2.9% financing thru MBF.

Not sure if it's a good deal, but really want the car so don't care that much!
That's the same as my ride here in MD except mines black on black. I got mine for 38.5k OTD with 5.1% financing (but I put 20k down). With your price, you should definitely ask them to upgrade your wheels to 18".

You haven't been ripped off. Nice price for a 350. I paid more for a 300.

O8 C300

This was back in January, and I was just so happy to get my first Benz that I didn't really care how much over or under invoice I paid. It was an impulse buy anyway, went looking at a 07 initially.
C300, arctic white, P1 $32,765.00 plus tax and lic.
Added Ipod for $710.00, I think they got to me on this a little, but at least it included the ipod amp.

Wink C Pricing philosophy

The better we can work with the customers on price for these new C Class cars, we feel we can get tremendous exposure (powerful advertising) in the Chicago market. We are 30 minutes away from Chicago proper. If a customer presents a fair offer, and we can make enough to compensate our salespeople to professionally follow-up after the sale by helping the customer with service, and any other related issues, we will make the deal. We belive in building a customer base, but good service is not cheap either, so keep that old saying in mind, "You get what you pay for."

That sounds like a fantastic deal to me. MB is advertising I think $499 a month for a pretty basic C300 right now.

How did you get them to go from $41 to $36? That seems like a huge price drop.

yeah, i thought it was a good deal. but i started to doubt it after going to leaseguide after the fact i bought the car.

you know i was all set to let one of my s2ki.com people sell me a car as mentioned a few posts above but he would have had to do a dealer trade. i was to pick the car up on monday but he called me and said the car i wanted was sold and he couldn't trade for it.

so i walk into beverly hills mercedes benz because it is only a few blocks from my house. i would never have thought to go there, but i was pretty heated and was determined to get it on monday. some hot saleswoman comes up to me and asks me what i want. i tell her c350 in arctic white with pano roof and no other options. she also asks me if i had any quotes. i told her that i was getting a good deal elsewhere so she tells me to wait and check out the showroom. comes back in a few minutes with the exact car i wanted PLUS 18" AMGs and P2 for the same price that i told her i was getting elsewhere. wow, couldn't believe it so i just bought it right there.

much to my doubt, i couldn't believe how well i was treated there. that was the last place i expected that from. it turned out to be the easiest car buying experience ever. i would recommend her to anyone. you would love to deal with her and enjoy the scenery while you are at it, just make sure to give her at least a hug when you're done.

2008 C350 | White | P2 | Pano
08 c350 p2, pano, ipod

sticker $40,050

OTD $35,800

with $10,000 down

but MB Financial made me pay off my Acura for the financing approval.

We bought a c300 4matic also so that might have helped on the price.

Sounds like a good deal for a 2009. How much more was a 2009 over a 2008 on the window sticker? Also, what dealer, was that Hoehn?

About OTD price

Hi All,

I've seen some OTD price listed from other members are very low... like $40xxx out the door for a C350, mm, p2, ipod and 18". There's another one at $35xxx plus fees. Are these OTD with tax? Can anyone clarify?

Anyways, congrats to all with the new purchase!
