Best way to negotiate on buying 3 C300?
I need some opinions from C Class owners. Do you guys think its possible to get 3 new C300 sport for $35K(each) out the door including panorama roof, and Navigation? I don't want to offend the sales but how much deduction is reasonable and since I am looking to get three cars I thought I might use this as a bargaining power?

Reasonable is about 5-10% discount!

How to negotiate buying 3 cars...
1. Go to dealership
2. Say, I want to buy 3 C Classes with Pano roof and Navi for $105k
3. If they say yes, buy them, if they say no, try the next dealership.
your welcome. TC

oh thats what i figured lol.....not sure what the tactic is. i've heard people getting a nice discount though buying a couple at once....
one cool thing i've seen though. when you go there and want to make someones day, if someone asks if you've been helped yet, ask for the newest guy working there. being he has probably sold the least cars there and has the least experience, he will probably lower the price much faster (and probably more than a more experienced guy would) and you'll help out the "new guy" b/c then he gets comish on 3 cars.....i think its a nice thing to do imo

Go in saying you want to buy 4, negotiate an even better price, then say one person backed out, but you still want to buy 3 at the lower price point. I had a couple friends do this when they wanted to buy 2 cars at once, negotiated pricing for 3 car sale, then said the "third buyer" backed out.

Don't forget to do your research on reliable sites (like Edmunds.com). See what the C300 configurations you and your friends want are going for in your area, and then maybe knock a couple thousand off and try that. If you go in blindly with no idea what other people are paying for C300's in your area, then you'll either pay too much, or get laughed out of the dealership. Just my 2 cents...

wow. I love buying expensive things in bulk (doesn't happen often :P), but 3 of the same car?
there is only one thing the sales person will be thinking
'what a playa'

personally, I think the best way to get the best price, is to start with a ONE CAR purchase and try to get your best deal. Then, come back and say you want the 2 or 3 cars, and that should LOWER it even further.
I think you should be able to get another 5% off AFTER getting a best price on ONE. But, I wouldn't count on getting more than 10% off an already good price on one.
