If you got it for 40xxx out the door, then that means you got around 7-8 Grand off of MSRP...
That is pretty ridiculous if true...
I am calling BLUFF

40XXX before tax or after tax and all the other BS?? How many miles did it have on it when you bought it? I am guessing over 100?

Car had 11 miles on it.....right off the showroom floor. MB is offering $3500 off certain cars along with 2.9% financing. So, invoice was right around $41,xxx, subtract the $3,500 rebate, add tax and we're at $40,XXX. See, its very true and I even have the documents to prove so should they be needed.

yea i just got mines about 3 weeks ago now..block c350 fully loaded with everything except pano for 37500 out the door. I also paid no taxes but that was due to the fact that we financed through my job so we didnt have to worry about the taxes.

Congrats! Even more congrats on the awesome price! Now enjoy... I'm more in the "less is more" school of modding. A little too much so, perhaps--I've done nothing to the car in 7 months of ownership.
But my short list:
tint, spoiler (Brabus 3-piece or CF OEM replica), clear side marker, Euroteck CF front lip, and maybe Euroteck CF rear diffuser.
Then perhaps some 19" wheels, but I do like the 18" AMG quite a bit. Love the design. And the roads here in the East SF Bay Area isn't the best for large diameter wheel/rubber band tires combo.
I say, just enjoy the car for now, and then start modding little by little once the new car feeling is worn away and you start getting bored. Little mods here and there do wonders to keep the enthusiasm going.

actually... i would get the 19" wheels soon, since you can sell your 18" AMG wheels for better price BRAND NEW. once they are used or scratched up, they are gonna be hard to sell. You can probably sell them for $2000?

No...that what I was able to get them to come down too and I alway try to buy round the end of the month and a vehicle that they had on the lot the longest because you can get the best deal on because they have to pay the most taxes on while it set they. Oh they also have a goal my mercedes to try and meet.
I have all the options but the p2..the prices was $41500..
