Question Factory Order Process Question

In the tenative process of placing my factory orderd C63 Coupe and a Deposit.
I was with Mbenz in the past , my Advisor said he will skip the 5K deposit and allow 2K
Is this standard or am I getting a good deal?

Deposits are fairly standard, but the nature and amounts of them vary widely between states. Not sure what's common in your neck of the woods, and what the consumer protections are in your state. But here in California, deposits are mainly a meaningless gesture, because they are by law refundable. Deposits here are typically a refundable $1k. That's all the dealer wanted from me for my European Delivery order last year. It's more like to see if the customer is willing to part with a bit of money for a certain duration to give the dealership a bit more confidence that they are serious about the order, but really they all know we can cancel our order any time and they have to refund the deposit.

Honestly, I wouldn't give them more than $1k. Where in Cali are you? You are essentially giving them an interest free loan. Tell them if they want more money from you that you gonna need to charge them 20% interest .

Put $10K down. Then threw another $50K upon receipt. Then refinanced the balance at 1% for 60. That was August last year. Picked it up at the dealership one week before Christmas.

Sounds like you had a good plan, Congrats!
I will be looking at a Similar pick up date , late Dec 2020 or early Jan 2021
Will have to look at lease rates as suppose to Finace.
I hear the AMGs dont lease well , anyhow i have time.
Defently not going into this stessing out about numbers.... I will enjoy the process from build to actually seeing the car on the floor

But hey , cograts to all ... and those who get lost in the numbers.
"Drive and enjoy" ...Only live once , or work hard play hard

Im in So Cal!
