Lease/Finance forum is dead, figured I would check here. Can someone post up the list of incentives sent to MBUSA dealers for the month of February? Conquest/pull forward/trunk money/etc. Car coming in Feb 22nd and want to be prepared

Thx!

Would also appreciate same info. I am in same boat.

If you qualify, don't overlook the USAA discount on top of your negotiated price.

February Incentives (from http://www.carseverything.com/254/20...ncentives.html and mbusa.com)

Purchase
1.9% Interest for 36 months
2.9% Interest for 60-72 months

Lease
4.68% Interest for 24, 36, or 48 months

Loyalty Cash - $2000
Conquest Rebate - $4000
Up to 4 payments waived on MBFS loan

If you qualify, USAA discount - $1500 or $2000

Are these incentives about the same as they have been over the last couple of months?

Could you please elaborate on the loyalty cash, conquest rebate and up to 4 payments waived? Like what qualifies the buyer for each? TIA.

In general, you need to ask your dealer for all details.

However, from the ad, conquest cash requires you to show registration or insurance card for a vehicle from Audi, Acura, BMW, Cadillac, Infiniti, Jaguar, Jeep, Lexus, Lincoln, Range/Land Rover, Volkswagen, or Volvo. There is no requirement to trade in the car. On clarification, the ad does say "up to $4000" and found that C-class only qualifies for $1000.

The "up to 4 payment offer"
February 1 through February 29, 2012, eligible C, E, GLK, CLK, SLK, M (excludes ML450H), R, S, CL, SL, CLS, GL, and G-Class customers with a First Class Lease or Walkaway Balloon Contract are eligible for Loyalty Accellerator benefits in conjunction with the lease or finance of any new 2011 or 2012 Mercedes-Benz vehicle through Mercedes-Benz Financial Services. Excludes SLS-Class, Sprinter and smart models. Certain exclusions apply.

Loyalty cash rebate - $2000
Confirm with dealer but owning a previous Mercedes qualifies (may be year restrictions)

Hope that helps.

you need to ask your dealer for all details.

Thx folks. Can you stack loyalty + conquest + usaa + employee/affiliate discount?

If you can't combine all, which ones can you combine?

When we bought our 2012 GLK in Nov. 2011, USAA and Conquest were "either/or not both". I showed up with the USAA paperwork for $1,500. Our dealer then produced the Conquest deal for $2,000. We picked Conquest. We were also offered an additional $1,300 (+ or -) if we financed through MBFS. We declined.
I guess to answer your question, the MBFS payment help can be combined with either USAA or Conquest.

Hope this helps.

ps: I see that you are in North Carolina. A member of the GLK Forum got a smoking deal on a 2011 GLK last November from the dealer in Asheville. He had nothing but good things to say about the dealership. He dealt with the owner's daughter and was totally pleased with the whole transaction. He drove down from northern Virginia to buy the car.

Just was in the dealer to finalize the numbers for my C63 which is still on the water and due to dealer sometime before the end of the month.

Current USAA incentive is right at invoice. ($1,500 above invoice with a $1,500 incentive from USAA) In January it came out to $1000 below invoice. Apparently, cannot be combined with conquest.

Can you share the numbers (MSRP and final) you all ended up on? Thanks!

Any additional insight from those who negotiated their 2012's or those who bought in February?

I was offered 3.75 for 60 months. BOA can do 2.89 for 60.

MSRP - 1500 (USAA).

The lease I was quoted was:

money factor .00275 (APR of 6.6)
Residual of 48189 (cap cost of 78,815)
3 yr/10k miles per year.

1500 down. 1300/month.

I've never leased, but it seems high. Probably just finance.

Nice, my wife just bought a Lexus so I think I'll use that registration for the conquest discount.
