Please help me make a good deal on a 2010 C300 4Matic
Hello Everyone,
Newbie here. Helping a family member purchase a 2010 C300 4Matic Sport, and want to make sure I am in the ballpark on price. It needs to be the following:
Iridium Silver
Black interior MB-Tex.
Multimedia package.
Can have premium package 1 OR 2.
Basically, a typically optioned C300 in a common color. I plan to have several dealerships compete in a 150 mile radius from my business. They all offer a max. $1,300 (first two payments) if you finance (before end-of-year). I suspect there should be plenty of inventory within a 150 of Pittsburgh, PA (About 16 dealerships). A great time to buy as well, as dealerships may need a sale or two to reach a year-end sales number.
So here's my question:
BEFORE the $1,300 credit on financed payments, how far below invoice should I be? Since sales on the C Class are down 28.3% Year-To-Date (and 9% compared to last November sales), I'm thinking deals are abundant. What say you? Truecar.com is stating anything over $750 under invoice would be a great deal. But it would be nice to hear from REAL people that recently bought or helped buy.
ANY ASSISTANCE IS GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!!

Once I finalize the deal/get the car, I will report back with the winning dealer + experience at dealership. So far the New Car Sales Manager has gone above & beyond.
