Fleet incentive

Anyone know what the fleet incentive will be for the 2012 C350 in November?

Dunno about November but I bought my 12 C300 this month and it was $750. I think it's the same for any C. There are 2 fleet deals though - the $750 is if you work in a company who uses MB vehicles. There's a $1000 inventive if you are a manager who makes purchases of vehicles for your company. Google it - MB has lots of details online.

Under Eligible Vehicles & Incentives, according to their website it's $1500 for 2011 and 2012 C Class's.

Do they have to tell you the right amount?

Sorry - looks like we were talking about 2 different things. My fault I think.

I was referring to the
Executive Allowance Bonus (EAB) and Fleet Employee Program (FEP) which anyone can use if their employer uses MB vehicles.

If you are looking to purchase a fleet vehicle for your company thats another story and I guess the $1500 discount applies.

These programs have nothing to do with the dealership (at least for EAB and FEB) you simply negotiate the best price and then tell them you want to take advantage of the program. The discount is paid to the dealer by MBUSA so the dealer doesn't care as it isn't a loss for them.

EDIT: WOW. MB changed it from $750 to $1500 THE DAY AFTER I BOUGHT MY VEHICLE.

But didn't you buy yours in Oct? I understand it has been at least $1500 the entire month if not more. I'm hearing word of mouth it is more now for the rest of the month. Where did you get your detailed info about the day it changed?

Sorry to hear you missed $750 by one day. Ouch! The goodness of the new vehicle makes up for it some though right?

I signed the papers on the last day of September. The website says that they enhanced the incentive starting 10/1! I got a really good deal so I guess I can't complain.
