Any discounting on 2025 CLE53 orders?

Was offered $5000 off CLE53 on a loaded Alpine Gray car without any negotiating, but my wife loves the car in Sun Yellow (as seen on the German configurator) and the new forged wheels. Was told the MSRP on 2025's will be $74,400 by the sales mgr. Has anyone gotten a decent discount in writing on a 2025 order?

I’m paying MSRP, but they gave me $5k more for my G-Wagen than another dealer that I was working with.

anything off is not high. My spec isn’t that crazy, alpine gray and every option except carbon fiber exterior but what makes it different is I don’t want the black wheels. Otherwise I’d get my dealer to locate a car and trade for it.

I'm in NJ and I built my car - got 3K off MSRP plus another $500 back through the Amex incentive (I posted a thread about it). I also got maintenance included which is 3 service visits in total - every 10K miles / 1 year, whichever comes first.

Edit: This was for a 2024 model. I'm sure discounts can be had for 2025 as well.

Sweet yeah I looked through your profile and found the post. Looks like the Amex offer expires in a couple weeks. Curious as to how you found it, so when I get around to buying one I know where to look.

Also, $3k off is nice! I've bought 2 AMGs from my current dealer, the second one was in June 2023. The market wasn't that hot at the time, although not as cool as it is now, and they were much harder to negotiate with. I wonder if it's because they know I'm dumb enough to spend the money lol. I'm looking to get $3k off or more on the CLE, bc the one I want will be close to $100k which is ~$20k more than I spent on my last one. Big jump so they need to big budge on the price lol.

Curious as to the negotiation process though. My two C43s were on the lot so it wasn't a problem. For an order, did you negotiate while you were building/placing the order or after it arrived?

I found about it some time ago but forget where exactly. I negotiated the price once the car was built and before it left the German port --> Baltimore VPC. During the initial order phase, they kept saying MSRP.
