The dealer give me 40236. However, CT has 6% tax and 399 DMV stuff.
it's going to be 43049.16, a lot difference!!

u have the nerve to ask? that's an INCREDIBLE deal!!

Two dealers, separated by one week, differently owned, two counties apart in nj, both refused to go below $39,650 on the car itself (c300sport 4 matic, black on black mbtex, p1, mmc, pano, ipod), equates to $1,500 over invoice or $1300 off msrp. Each one I had to fight down, the first (when I made my post last week but he ended up being a liar about it being in stock) said his manager set a floor on these cars, the second said that a mb rep had come the week earlier and was upset with them for taking too much off the msrp. And these comments were'nt made early, but only after several of the trips to the maanager, the manager coming out at least once to work me over, and me making serious threats to walk for another dealer. This is Jersey, and MBUSA is headquartered here, so wonder if any of this is coordinated. Likely just a concidence, but wondering.

And I'm surpirsed at elsewhere, but I ended physically goign to 4 dealers (only talked price with two however), and each had multiple c300 and c350's in stock. The dealer that lied about inventory was limited specific to my color and options choice, coulda had it that day in two or three other colors, the second dealer was a walk-up and they had in stock right then. And, its not for these cars moving as the first aforementioned dealer when I first went had three in the showroom and 6 on the lot, 5 days later when went to "pick-up" car at prearranged day, had changed the three on floor with two different and only had 3 of the 6 on the lot the same, but had restocked with maybe an additional two. its hard to tell, but noticed differences in the easy to spot colors (white, red, steel grey). Feel for all those in locals where special orders are still occuring.

No one in the nyc/nj area should be waiting for one. There are alot in stock in the area unless it's a very specific combo like mars red with p2 and pano only. If it's silver, grey, black, or white they have a multitude of combos in stock. Dealers are quoting great prices for some because they're delivering in January/Feb when prices will be lower than what we see today. In two months time that deal that was negotiated today will not seem like such a great deal in January.

The only dealership actually owned by MBUSA corporate is MB of Manhattan, all the others are independently owned.

I also have the ipod interface and teleaid. Don't think you have those options listed in your previous post. Dealer threw in the all weather mats, some key chains and a nice teddy bear for my baby. We took delivery on Saturday.

I am in that area and am still waiting for my black C300 luxury 4 matic with leather interior and panorama roof. Also has P2 and MM. I figured the leather was the reason for the delay.

Actually, it probably is. I don't see many C's on lots with leather, and you're getting it pretty loaded. Have you called around to other dealers to see if they have stock? I think most dealers will match a competitors price if they have it on the lot.

MBfan21

Well I ordered back in August and what I wanted was not available at that time. I went to several dealers then... I already paid the deposit (which was quite high in my opinion) to this one dealer which he says is non refundable... He felt it would be hard to sell a car with all my options in it so that's why the refund was non refundable. I don't like his reasoning but what can you do. So there's no point really trying to check other dealers at this point since the deposit is already down.
So I wait....

Did you go to Benzel Busch and Prestige? God, I hate Benzel Busch...

Dealers in my area (Seattle) haven't charged "dealer prep" in decades. State sales tax, license fee and that's it. No ad fee. Of course, they are getting MSRP.

How much are you paing for the car? MRSP, INVOICE, there is any mark up, what's the monay factor? Even too much monay BECARFULL

tanktube67

I'm paying $640.00 for my BMW 545i

tanktube67

of course you can back up, but make sure you get it on writting, I place an order on C350 with panp, mm, p2, 18" wheels, metalic paint and leather int. I back up of the deal because I didn't like the air reflector of the pano and I got my $3000.00 deposit back.

tanktube67

P2 head light washers? in California????? rear sun shade??? I never use it on my BMW, Xenons I like but it's cheaper update it on my own, that is my opinion of course

Yeah, of all the dealers I shopped and C's I saw, I don't think I saw a single one with leather. They've got to be out there, but odd not to find a single one.

Good luck.

I am in Vaughan Ontario and I am leasing a C350 with MM and down payment was freight and PDI plus 4K all together about 6500 Down and the payments are 780.00 a month and 6 months wait for the C350.

I talked to the dealer and he says that they do not do any deals, because so many people want this car.

Did I pay too much, and am I waiting to long?

peabers

How long is the lease? What's the mileage allowance? Options aside from MM? 4Matic? Premium pkg? Metallic paint? Leather? Pano? Keyless-Go? Is $780/month tax-in?

PM me if you want more details about the incentives I got.

6 months sounds like a very long wait, even for Canada. Sound be around Jan/Feb delivery about now. Which dealer?

pmb600

Not really odd, C-Class with leather are rarely ordered for the lot. Most customers are not willing to spend $1500 on leather when the MB Tex is such a good imitation.

Hi, im usually on the W203 side...

but a friend of mine wants to get a

C300 4Matic Sport with:
PII package
Multimedia package
Pana-roof
IPOD
Parktronic.

Can anyone provide any prices that they got the car for, or something simliar?

She got a quote for about 41,000 thats without tax, but i think the price could be better? any inputs/suggestions would be great!!

Thanks for the help!

They aren't discounting cars much because they are selling so well. From what I have seen on here for a 40k car a discount of 1.5k-2k is normal. You can get extras thrown in though, lip spoilers, floor mats, grills, things of that nature.

(If your used to the w203 discounts you won't find them on the w204. The outgoing w203's at my dealership were discounted 10k without haggling before the w204's even came out)

alchang32

then is 39K OTD possible?

Krytech

Should be, I was asking for $2K off but settled for $1K and a set of snow tires valued at about $800.

This thread is people posting what they got theirs for.
