It just amazes me how cheap the car is in the US and especially in certain markets. In Toronto, (at least me) we don't get discounts even remote close to what I've seen here.

This brings tears to my eyes.

What color is this car, inside and out, and how is it equipped? This is almost twenty grand less than I paid for my car before tax and license in Oct '07.

It's these kind of giveaway deals that have torpedoed W204 used prices.

When I bought my 2011 C300 I actually went through a lot of hell trying to find my car. I was looking for a black on black c300 with aluminum trim 7speed and umi nav+4 and I guess this proved to be very difficult. It all started with me visiting fletcher jones. Now I have gone before and had a bad experience but I went back just too look. When I stepped on the lot the first thing a sales gentleman asked was my price range and called me a liar and a joke for finding a 38k c for 34k. I went home ticked off and called and spoke to someone of higher position. He told me to come back and he would do anything to sell me a car. I went to the lot and met with the guy, he seemed nice but forced me to get a wood interior because he said they didn't have aluminum and then said I had to wait 3 months to get aluminum if I wanted it. I went inside his office and he then told me I had to run my credit just to give me a price, mind you we haven't even chosen a car to negotiate on. I was pissed and left. I called Fletcher and talked to their manager and told them I was never going to refer another person to their company again, this time the manager apologized and talked to me and met with me on her free time on Saturday. I actually was happy about this and was willing to buy a car. Before I sign papers I go home to make some final checks. While she told me she was giving me a deal I couldn't turn away and losing moneyI found out she was ripping me off a grand. I never returned her call....So I went to house of imports the gentleman I talked to seemed good but the first offer he gave me thinking I'm a moron was $325 off sticker price!!! Not 3k but 300. Last resort I went to caliber. I bought a car from them before and was satisfied but I wasn't just going to settle on one dealership, but this was my last dealership. I walk in talk to the "Mark Dewey" (great guy) who I bought my last car from, and he gives finds me my exact car I want. They actually seached the entire west coast for one and couldn't get one so he ordered one and 3 days later it comes off the boat and he has someone get it late at night so he could get it to me asap. I walk in and he just asks hoe much I want for it. I told him 34k same as fletcher. He tells me he'll give it to me for 33500. This is about 30 seconds of talking to him. The next day I come in to sign papers and he says he can throw off another 150 bucks. I honestly didn't car if it even cost more than Fletcher because I just willing to give business to mark than some stuck up guys at Fletcher. I signed papers in 30 mins at 8am and left with a great deal by 8:45. Now I'm not saying those who bought their car from fletcher got ripped off, but this is just my experience. Also check yelp if you don't believe me but if you are looking for a new merc, go see Mark Dewey really straight forward guy at Caliber Motors in Anaheim hills ca. So anyways I got my perfect black on black 2011 c300 msrp 37845(close to that) for 33450( approx)

I don't buy new cars, I follow the motto, "lease new, buy used". Anyway, I got a bit of a bad deal on my lease, 39 month, $6,000 out of pocket, $40k sticker, 12,000 miles per year and I pay $371/month. $20,000 buyout.

My sister got an AWESOME deal. $35k sticker, $2,000 out of pocket, 24 month lease, 12,000 miles per year, $351/month. $28,000 buyout.

jctevere that is kind of a bad deal, what are u going to do at the lease end? buy or lease another car? im leasing for the first time too and i think when it ends i will buy a car again, i dont think leasing is worth it now that i leased for the first time

Both cars were leased at Mercedes-Benz of Huntington. I leased mine first (the 2009) and then my sister leased her 2011 from the same guy about a year later. This is probably the reason why she got such a great deal and mine so crappy.

Will owning two luxury vehicles reduce the price by $4000?? Or is it a % per luxury Vehicle you own?

Do you have a link from MB which shows that incentive deal going on? I'm in the middle of negotiating an ML and would like to pull this ace from my back pocket.

You can email me at tenbaggio@hotmail.com if you'd like

I asked my dealer about two luxury vehicles I have (RX300 and QX4), he said no only $2000 off.

I started with www.carsdirect.com ans it says $2000 off if buyer have a current finance with MB. I don't have a link. Saleman qutoe me 11.5% off plus $500 off for the luxury car ownership. When I showed up he automatically said $2000 off intead of $500 off. I pulled the trigger the same day.

I just tried www.carsdirect.com and but never got asked this, do you have to go further into the process to be asked about the luxury car ownership option?

Also is there a thread like this for an ML? I noticed this is a C-class thread (I was forwarded this thread from someone so I can take note of the luxury-car incentive)

The $2000 off is not from any link but from my local dealer. He copied my car registration during the paperwork process.

New to the site. I leased my C new with 11 miles on the odometer. It is black on black, all leather, wood trim, p1, sport pkg, lid spoiler and 18in AMG wheels. Sticker was 42k I paid 2k out of pocket to cover TTL and dealer fees, 12k mile/yr x 36 month lease at $441 a month with a complementary VIP maintenace(worth 1.5k) and windshield protection.

Not a bad deal considers MB was advertising 6k down pluse TTL on the web site at time of purchase.

Purchased a 2011 C-300 for $33,809 about $4400 off MSRP.

Easy to deal with the dealership and Internet sales person. All quotes by E-mail. No visits to the dealer until I liked the price.

I'm real happy with my car and the deal they made me.
