I recently placed an order for the CLS63 with all the options (not inclduing distronic and parktronic). they said it will be finished by end of Feb and will arrive here around April.
options including 030 pkg, designo graphite editioin. well overall, i paid 125,000 OTD (with WA sales tax). did i make a horrible deal? and, somehow, even the sales person was not so sure about what kinds of things are included in the 030 package. and the sales person said on the computer, it shows [Graphite - Charcole - black Piano wood]. then he told me seats are two tone color (Porcelain and Charcole). I don't know... does anyone have pictures of graphite edition interior? plus, i want the illuminated door sills, but dealer wants me to pay $1400 for the set of 4 sills and plus installation charge... but i found in formymercedes.com that only costs $150. if i buy it here, would the dealer install it for me?

what is msrp? when i bought my cls55 (before the 63 came out) I paid sticker, which I think was a good deal at the time

msrp was 92,000 base model.

Regarding the door sills. You can install yourself in a few hours. Or if you want I am sure the dealer would be more than happy to do it for mmm a lot of money.

As for the price you're paying for the car, it doesn't really seem like youre hurting for $$ but you are overpaying and it's not too late to cancel and renegotiate. But either way, awesome car, congrats and enjoy.

would be kind enough to tell me how much you bought it for? and they told me to put down $2500 in order to get the slot for me and order the car so, it's still not late to negotiate? thanks

What is the msrp of the car you ordered, with the options? according to carsdirect.com you can buy the car for msrp (no markup). Your dealer will probably honor the carsdirect price if you threaten to go elsewhere. As for the deposit, is it non-refundable. You can always keep negotiating until you sign the paperwork and drive off the lot in the car.

i think the MSRP was $116,520 and they gave me $1500 discount
so the price that they want me to pay was $115,020 again, it's equipped with
030 pkg,Designo Graphite, Ipod integrated sys, premium pkg 2 and trunk closer.

Wow only $1500.00 off a $115,000 car. You should try a little harder I bought a CLS 550 and got $5000.00 off sticker. I also bought two cars from them in one month but you should try to get quotes from other places that way you have ammo when you walk in. Either way though congrats you will enjoy it.

you could get a better discount on the 500 when i got my 55...... there simply weren't a lot of 55's and they didn't have any problem selling them.

thanks for the advice, but i paid the deposit one member already told me even i paid deposit, until i sign the paper and drive the car away, it's still negotiable. would you give me some strategies for me? please~~

I got an 030 cls63 recently for 116k out the door in CA. I put a 1k deposit down in May, and payed the 115k remaining in November when I took delivery. All options except distronic. I dont think that you are getting a GREAT deal and either did I, but after all it will be tough to find an 030 with that designo on it. All things considered, you will get a better deal on a car whose supply has reached the demand. When it comes to your case, I am sure there are not many at all with your combo, so the price isnt going to be that flexible. For me it came down to wanting an obsidian black 030 with the matte wood in it, and finding one was not easy, so I had little leverage. Dont listen to the rest of these guys, definitely take delivery of the car, you wont find another one like that soon. PS San Francisco sales tax of 8.75% raped me.

just wondering how you ordered a car without seeing what a two tone interior looks like?

I have seen the two tone on a black designo with red interior. it stands out!

also curious as to why you order without parktronics or disctronics? if your spending that kind of money might as well no?

it sounds like a beautiful car none the less
