Good Dealership in San Diego/La Jolla Area?

I live in La Jolla right now and am looking to place an order for a 2003 CL 500. I have been to Mercedes Benz of San Diego, and was guaranteed a car at MSRP, but that's it. Nothing below that, not even waiving the luxury tax. Does anyone know of any dealerships in this area that might prove to be a better place to order? Thanks.

Get 02 CL600 or CL55,you'll be able to get a real sweet deal.
02 CL500 is basically not much different from 03,so why pay MSRP for 03?In Illinois 02 CL500 goes for invoice.

Well, I like the fact that the CL has been given a makeover for 2003. I like the look of the 2003 CL more than the 2002 models. Also, finding a 2002 CL 55 or 600 just sitting on a lot around here is difficult. All the dealerships I have spoken to say that almost all the cars that come on the lot are already spoken for.

If you are looking for a dealer to sell you an '03 CL500 for below the window sticker, I think you will be waiting a lot of time & energy. IMO, that car will be sold at MSRP for quite some time just like the '00 CL when it came out. I know that there are not that many differences between '02 & '03, but enough to make it worth MSRP!!!
