I want the C350 09
I need advice from you guys...Should I purchase this 09 350
So I've been eyeing the new c class since the 08's, and started seriously looking at them a couple of months ago...I am looking at an 09 C Sport 350, Black/Black, w/Multimedia, P2, 18" wheels, Panorama roof, and Ipod integration.
MSRP is 46,640, Dealer will sell to me for 42,500, and will kick out the 1.9% apr for 66 months...I am going to try to get MB financial to extend the 1.9% to 72 months, but not sure if they will do this.
Is this a great deal for this car? And, I know this is a very subjective question, but should I go for it??
Thx in advance for answers...I'm really having a tough time making my mind up on this.

Wow! 72 months financing is awfully long. You should insist on extended warranty to match the financial terms otherwise you may be stuck with out-of-warranty repairs and outstanding loans on the car.

With the 2010's coming out soon, I would push for a couple grand more off the price. I got over 4K off my basic '08 C300 last year just as the 09's were showing up. This is even more important since the 2010's have several improvements...maybe you might want to ask for that pricing on a 2010?

2009 c350
Well depending on what incentives are out there for this month on the c350...that price is too high. Last month i was able to get 6 grand off msrp with the 2000 marketing support available. I would push them to knock more off since the MY2010 is coming out but your choices may be limited.

They have 2 that I want, 1 white, and 1 black...Both loaded and both 46,640 at MSRP...I'm going to push them to get to 40,500 or 41,000...Then if they can extend the 1.9 to 66 months, I will buy it...They are sitting on there lots, with the economy the way it is, and the 10's coming in soon, they will have to move these things, as they are losing money on them right now.

Well, I bought it...I did the deal for 42,500 and 1.9 for 66 months...I also had a trade which had negative equity, so they did well on the trade for me...I'm happy with the deal, cannot wait to drive it, and will post pics after the weekend...Thanks for the advice everyone!!

I was told by a dealer that there is $0 market support for the C350's this month (July). Last month had $2,000, so most likely you would have had an "easier" time getting a better deal on a C350.

Yeah, I could feel that there was no other options for them, these guys were pretty cool to deal with...I got the 1.9% for 66 months, which was a pretty big concession on there parts, I understand they have to make some $$ on the deal, and that's fine, the price I got was still well under TMV from Edmunds.com, so I feel like I got a really good deal...I am so excited to be a Benz owner now!!!
I have been wanting to own one of these for 2 years now, can't wait to drive it home!!

Congrats on your new ride. It doesn't matter if you paid a dollar or two more than the lowest possible price as long as you are happy with what's sitting in the driveway...now time to starte modding...

I think it's all relative, the economy as a whole was worse off a couple months back, so there might have been better deals to be had, but the rate drop to 1.9 was a nice concession for me, I'm not going to quibble over a couple grand here or there, this is a Mercedes for chrissakes, right??
I appreciate the feedback though, and know that you guys are just trying to help me make an informed decision...I think if it was a cash deal I could have had them drop a bit lower, but on my trade they gave me above kelley blue book value, so I'm happy with it...The place I bought it from has a sick showroom, so somebodies gotta foot the bill for that somehow, even in this economy...I am so excited to now own this car!! Can't wait to pick it up tomorrow.

C350 and a Lightning.
You're such a tool.
My only advice to the op would have been to stick it out untill they had a bunch of 2010's on the lot, then you would have saved thousands. But hey, you have it now and I'm sure you are going to enjoy driving it! it's a great car.
