Sticker on my C400 was $50,015. Got it for $43,250. I had a different dealership quote me an even $7k discount but they didn't have the car I wanted and they couldn't get mine away from the other dealership. I figured $250 wasn't enough to walk away over so I took it. I'm in SoCal.

Done a deal on a C350e Plug In. List price £ 45k less £ 5k government subsidy and final price is £ 33.5k = £6.5k discount after subsidy - 16%. Delivery on new reg 1st Sept
Outrageous claim that it will do 134mpg but expect 70+ and 0-60 in 5.9s which is quicker than my CLS 350CDI

Currently shopping for my sister in law.
Her C250 is due and best I have quoted so far is $8000 off MSRP on a 48k C300 RWD.
However this dealer in Southern California has a mandatory paint/interior protection you have to buy for $395 so it's effectively $7500 off.

Sounds good, a lot of people are getting less discounts now, just make sure she is happy with the options she gets (assuming this is off the lot).

What dealer is that? I wouldn't buy from them. There's no such thing as a mandatory paint interior protection. That stuff is just bullcrap and its a straight profit for them. I wouldn't take less than 8 off. I'd say try for 9, as I got on my deal. walnut Creek in NorCal gave me that deal.

I'll try the Walnut Creek's sister stores in here. MB of Calabasas and W.I. Simonson are both Sonic Automotive.

Smart! They are indeed sister stores. Check with Calabasas. ask for the sales manger or Internet sales manager and do it over the phone and present the numbers. Take a look at their inventory online so you know they have what you want. I did my deal over the phone with WC. The car was ordered but they were able to get a near identical build intercepted while in production for a sister store and secured for me so I didn't have to wait for my order to only start months later.

I always use Drive The Deal to negotiate my price - www.drivethedeal.com
I just checked and they have C200's with discounts around £ 5k to £ 6k. They are reputable and charge a nominal introduction fee and then you deal with and pay a MB Dealer. Good luck

Got $6500 off a sticker of $47,800 on a 2015 C300. So that's like 13.5%. Had everything I wanted and nothing I didn't. USAA was giving me ~$4100 off, but a competing MB dealer was selling a similar model to the one I wanted for $6500 off, and I had my dealer match. Memorial Day weekend probably helped, although a third dealer only was offering $3K off of a more expensive model that had the Multimedia package that I didn't want.

18% company discount + 18% discount for strong swiss franc against the euro means 36% off the original price. Leasing rate at 1.9% means this has been a very good deal for me!

July Discounts
Looking to help a friend pick up a C300 within the next week or so.
So what's a good % off for July. I understand there is a 2k incentive still in effect. Is a 15% discount from sticker doable currently?
Also I was told that MB is now accepting multiple security deposit even on subsidized money factor's. Can anyone confirm if this really true.
Thanks

36% discount off list
I got a 36% discount off list price. From a List price (CHF 62000 car + CHF 22000 options) of CHF 84000, the net price ended being CHF 54200 for a C250 bluetec 4 matic estate. 18% was for currency as the swiss franc greatly appreciated against the euro, the remaining 18% was dealer's discount.

2015 C300 4MATIC
I am also looking to buy soon in the next couple of weeks.
What discount should I expect at this point? MY 2016 is just a month and a half away I guess... Any info on current incentives?
