They are tight lipped until than (understandably), but it may work out even better than I expect - 10k off? who knows, I will post when I know.
Hmmm... I'm thinking It's gonna be the summer event or maybe another spring event. I know as we get closer to June/July they try to move the 2015 for the 2016's.

Don't know how it works in other countries, but i Sweden most of the higher brands have pretty nice deals for companies. So I got almost 20% of the list price on my S205 220 AMG-line. That is pretty good

It was 10% off + $3k ABA discount at SF Benz. An alternative deal they offered was 13% off MSRP, but the former deal is obviously better financially. I think best deals come out of Stevens Creek (they were ready to give me even more of a discount), but they were unable to get me the car until July, whereas SF Benz somehow was able to get it to me by March. PM me for the salespeoples' contact information; they were pretty good.

Can anyone shed some light on the deal they got in April. It seems so easy to get $8K off MSRP in socal in March, but I haven't seen anyone post similar deal in April.

The best offer in April I got so far is only $6500 off, and I had a hard time to make them go any lower.

I've been monitoring the deals on TrueCar for the 2015 C300, and I've noticed an upward trend for "price paid" over the last month or so.

When I ordered my 2015 C300 at the end of march, the trend was at it's lowest.

I'm hoping for at least a special low interest rate from Mercedes Benz...that or some sort of incentives in June when I take delivery of my ordered 2015 C300 Sport. And if my car comes earlier than June 1st for some reason, I'll make sure I don't take delivery until June!

Fingers crossed!

With the strong US$, may want to also look north of the border now. MB CDN has a 60 year (in Canada) special where they waive 3 payments. Plus the prices are attractive, as mentioned, and you get to play with the rest of the world's metric system!
Be warned that the packages here are weird, though.

My BMW 3 series lease is ending next month and wanted to try out the c300 this time, after seeing this thread and the kinds of discounts people are getting, i was even more enthusiastic.
However, I realized that its only the west coast people getting 15-20% off.

I am in Delaware and looks like, the east coast does not have great deals like in the west coast.
I talked to one local dealer today, and he said to come in and will talk number, but he suggested they are very aggressive.

When I go in, how can I tell them that others are getting 15-20% off and would they even match it?

The method that I used was to go on edmunds and do the Price Promise, which reaches out to multiple local dealers at the same time and they start emailing you deals immediately. You compare those and then can get dealers to start bidding against eachother for your business. I did that and got an amazing deal. Ultimately its economics though. If none of the local dealers in your area are being as aggressive on pricing as the west coast, you are at the mercy of their pricing as deals on the other side of the country have less weight in your negotiations.

Also, it always helps to start this process at the very end of the month when they're more willing to hit a goal. Good luck!

I think we should create a new threat that lists out average discount per dealer so folks can save time and money when shopping. Just a thought...

Picked up my car yesterday, discount was 8500, Mercedes Benz of San Jose (formerly Beshoff). IM said MB is pulling back incentive $ because C class it selling well, so expect deep discounts to be more difficult to obtain. Still I think there is lots of margin on lot cars. Also EW was 1300 6/75k.
Experience was very good,
