Mercedes sent me a gift in the mail today?

Just like the topic says, Mercedes sent me a leather wallet, a personal vehical information card to keep handy in it and a $25.00 gift certificate to Saks Fifth Avenue. Did anyone else get one?

The only gift I got was a portable Mercedes Benz Garmin GPS Navigation.
I kept insisting I wanted Navi but they didn't have a C350 in stock that had it, so the manager threw in that GPS - on the house.

I got the exact gift you received...the wallet, the info, and the gift card. I already used it, too! I bought a beautiful lipstick online! Gotta love it!

Couldn't the dealer just order it? That would have been a deal breaker for me.

I signed paperwork Aug 8th and drove home Aug 9th supposedly I was the 2nd owner in my area driving a new C. I had to wait a day, as I was so lucky to find my exact car/ color/ wheels but they had to get it from a dealer 197 miles away.

+1. That MM is very nice. If I am paying MSRP for my car a wallet is the least they can send me...

License / Card type wallet, not really a Wallet-wallet

Agreed, even if it was a .50 card, still kudos to MB for saying thank you. I've never gotten anything from Toyota but their stupid survey for each and all of the $200K+ I spent in 2006 for a new fleet of Tacomas

Is that standard for MB to do? I hope they're doing gifts next year because mine won't be here until January...

I'm sure you will be happy with the Garmin. The MB Navi has issues to say the least. what model Garmin did you get?

I got a tin of cookies

But I didn't pay MSRP, so... *crunch crunch* I guess it'll have to do.

the $25 gift certificate must be new, because last year when my mom got her car they sent her a wallet and a certificate. Oh and two cool key chains (which mysteriously dissopeared) and were replaced with greenwich mercedes (there name and address engraved on the back...

No gift, and still waiting for my set of winter mats. Time to call my dealer.

I never got anything from my dealer. Should I call them and ask about this "gift"?
