I live in Hawaii. The mercedes dealer told me if I ordered the C350 now, it will arrive in March 2008. Anyone know when the 2009 model is going to come out? If it is like July then I will wait for the new 2009 model. Any suggestion?

 

I'm assuming you want a C350 with the MM and/or Pano package. If you live in the Island of Oahu, it doesn't look like MB of Honolulu will bring much. I personally got lucky and asked them if they had a C350 with Palladium Silver and P2 coming in and they did within 1 week. Safe to say I put on my 1k deposit right away. If you haven't got a salesperson yet, send me a personal message, I have a salesperson who would take very good care of you.

Back on topic: It doesn't look like until September of 2008 will they bring in the new C class.

 

I've already made the refundable $1000 deposit. The sale person is nice but he is new therefore cant make much decisions, need to ask his manager everytime. Well I am just wondering did they give you any discount? Well for Lexus I can get at least $1000 thru my friend and even BMW you can get $500 off the MSRP for the 328i. If the 2009 model is going to be September then I'm not going to wait. By the way did you get the 18" rim? Are you drive it now?

 

I've passed on the wheels and yes you can negotiate but I cannot say how much I paid for it. And yes I'm driving one now.

 

Going to test drive and order my C300 lux this coming Sunday at the Honolulu dealer. I'm wondering if the time frame would be the same as 350. Hopefully not because I'd really need a new car by the end of Feb since the lease on my current car is running out.

 

They're not in short supply of C300 Luxury models from what I've seen. Sport's been going out like hotcakes.

 

The 2009 C-Class models should be out in September.

 

thanks imboom. I'm glad to hear that.
