for an 09, i got 500 above invoice
$6000 off sticker for an '08 C300 Sport, as one example. One of the sales guys told me last week there is $3000 trunk money in '08 Cs now. That would be from MBUSA.

08 or 09? if 09, that's an amazing deal.

MB must be more aggressive on the pricing, I can walk into a Lexus dealer and drive a way an 09 IS250 for few bucks under invoice (not MSRP.. not sure why there is a confusion on this thread), BMW 3-series, 0.9% APR on the 08 and close to invoice for 09.

If MB keeps this up and refuse to offer more than just 3.9% APR, I bet you will start to see higher inventory by end of Dec and prices will def. fall then.

Price to pay for 08 c350 with zero options

Help !

What should I offer to the dealer for 2008 c350 with zero options. The msrp is $38500. According to the dealer the price is to sell is $33500. I think it should be cheaper . Please let me know what you think.

Not bad as there is less room for them to deal on the car itself vs. the options. I would say that on an 08, you could do a little better. I bought my 08 two months ago and went from 33,510 down to 29,000. Maybe another grand or so would be really sweet. 32,000????

Like Orie, I got over $7k off (as well as $1.5k of MB Club of America credit to boot, but the dealer is not responsible for that part of the deal).

www.edmunds.com

and I've heard the spread between MSRP and invoice is 7%, that's a good rule of thumb to work from.

Go to Santa Monica MB and ask for Andrew in fleet sales. I was offered a C350 that was had an MSRP of 46.5k for 40.5k. That is basically the car plus the entire hold back. I never had to ask for a discount he basically said listen i dont do deals where you have to haggle I just show you the invoice, the hold back, and the msrp and you can either take the car home or not.

Great guy. That deal is hard to beat. I have never seen a dealership offer up all the money without even asking for it. This is a sign of the times.

Did you pay that price for a 2008 or 2009?

2009. I did not buy the car. Got a better deal =)

But my deal is not available to the public. I was honestly just looking at the C350 to make sure I wanted it as a DD to replace my 2007 E350 (lease is done).

What is the hold back percentage for MB cars?

Yes, no P1. It's hard to find, but I really do not need anything in P1. I was told this c300 just arrived at US in late Oct. when I check the tire, the manufacture date is 34th week this year.
