discount if you work at MB????
my friends sister works for MB USA.
in what capacity im not really sure yet
im going to get in touch with her today, and get more info, but i figured some of you guys would know whats up
my friend mentioned that she (her sister) has some sort of discount voucher for MB....and what my friend mentioned is that they have special programs with this voucher...an example she gave me was a E class lease for $420 a month......
when i asked if this would apply to ANY model, she said they have special programs.....or just a discount......she mentioned 20% off, but that sounds impossible to me and is probably wrong
what she told me was that they take your social security # and put it into the system, and give you some kind of controll number
anyone ever hear of something like this??
anyways, i sent her sister (the one that actually works for MB) a message, and am waiting for her response so that i can get the actual details
but any input you guys have would be appreciated too
thanks!!!

well just to clarify, ive only spoke to her sister, not the actual girl that works at MB
as far as 20% goes....thats impossible
i remember other forum members saying they only get like $500 off, and sometimes nothing at all on AMGs
but does anyone know anything about some controll number they give you, and the putting your social into their system

and here it is, right from the sales guy i always deal with:
We just received five employees control numbers to use for regular customers from now until the end of the month. That means you can get twelve and a quarter percent (12.25% !) off the price of a new Mercedes Benz.

WOW !!!!
that sounds too good to be true
im sure it cant apply to AMGs or there has to be some kind of catch!!!
my luck is NEVER that good
can you call the dealer and ask him what the catch is?
so if my C63 is sold to me for 70k, and i give them this controll #, i will get it for 62 and change???
REALLY????????????

here is the e-mail i was sent:
* -We just received five employees control numbers to use for regular customers from now until the end of the month. That means you can get twelve and a quarter percent (12.25% !) off the price of a new Mercedes Benz.
* -This can be used in conjunction with other discount offers MB has on different models this month, including leases.
* - As an example you could get over $16,000 off one of the two CLS550's that we have in stock. You could also lease a SLK280 for around $400 per month (possible even less!) Some vehicles have interest rates as low as 1.9% for as long as 72 months

i didnt jump on the deal for the CLS63 because i thought he said they had one CL63, which is out of my price range. the next day i called and talked about it and he explained it to me. Basically they get permission from Mercedes or their own dealership to use some of these numbers at random to move cars. he said it happens every so often and not on any type of schedule. When they do the pricing i guess they put in the control number and it discounts it.
this was two weeks ago and i wasnt really paying attention since the CLS was gone and he said i could not use it on a C63 through them. so im not sure if you can even use it on a C63.

Couple thoughts:
- If they do have these "discretionary" control numbers, there's no way they'll use it on an in-demand C63 - they'll use them to entice people into slower moving, bigger ticket vehicles.
- I work for a totally unrelated company yet we have corporate discount with MB. I completed an on-line form and then was issued a control number and form that I sent to the dealer. This discount varies by car. Any C, including the 63 have a $500 discount. The max is $2,500 which applies to a few cars including S550, ML550 and ML63 etc.

it's for whenever you can get a control number. the e-mail i got was from the end of june. Mercedes always does some weird deals that no one knows about. like $999 for 36 month lease on a CLS63, hell my dealer didnt even know until after the offer was over.

it was for a 63, they had two 550's on the lot though.
well from what he said it sounded like from what was on the lot/on the way to them. not for orders to have one built.
i will ask when i call though.

ok so i just called my guy at Ray Catena MB
heres what he told me:
-the controll # discount only applies to certain models, he said its not on everything
-there is nothing on the C63
-i asked him about the S class and he said there are special programs on the S class, and that you cant commbine the controll # with the current offers
-when i asked about the CLS63 for $999, he said that offer expired already BUT.....he said it was for 08s, most of which you cant find.....if you did find it, he mentioned there was a lot of money out of pocket...plus tax....plus it was only like 7500 miles a year
-he also thinks MB will price the C63 by the end of this month
he said he'll find out more info on the controll # thing, and get back to me shortly
