Just by looking at 19% discount, I'd say a very good deal compared to my 11% discount in 2011. SUV sales are increasing and sedan sales are going down so for those who like sedan it's a good time.
Is it one particular car with such discount, or all cars at the dealer?

Just be careful here and check out the MB offers page
E.g. 2018 S classes in Canada immediately get $10,000 back when leasing/financing. So if we assume a $100,000 MSRP car, the 10% discount looks great, but it doesn't mean much. That would mean there is 17% of margins to play with. 10% back from MB Canada, and 7% back from the usual margins when buying a car. So thus, 17% back seems great too, but I also qualify for another $2,000 back as a perk through work, so someone like me actually has 19% of margin to work with.
Thus, all I'm saying is don't fall for what seems to be a great deal. Figure out all of your cars and then play the other guys' hand, not your own. good luck!
