Good price for 2002 E320?

I went to dealer today looking for 2002 E320. They offered $1800 under invoice price. Is that good price for a 2002 while 2003 models are coming?

$1800 Under Invoice price? Hell Yes! Anytime something is below what the dealer paid for it is a great deal.

Check EDMUNDS.COM, the price is about $400 under invoice usually. Now, Mercedes dealers have $1500 rebate for 2002 E320. I don't think $1800 under invoice is really good price while dealers trying to push their 2002 models out of their parking lot.

Not too bad!
Based on my calculation, you get a little bit more than 5K off from MSRP. I got 3.5K off when I bought mine in 2000. It was a very good deal back then (year 2000, economy was hot!!!)
In addition to the discount, the dealer can offer you a good interest rate. So, it's a win-win scenario for you. If you buy the new W211, you'll pay at least at the MSRP, may be there's a markup price and the waiting list is longgggggggggggggg.

I know for a fact the 02 E class can be had for about $40K (moonroof, 6 cd changer, bose, add $1500 more for 4 matic) Just went with a friend to take delivery. By the way...Mercedes typically doesn't like to deliver new vehicles to lots still holding older models..this is an extra incentive to move last year's models from the lots. Don't be taken!

Even the CarsDirect.com price is $1500 under invoice. That means you should be able to get $2000 under invoice.

2002 E320 for 40K ? are you serious?

Neicey59,
are you serious ? Base (MSRP) is 48.5K + Sunroof (1500) + CD (500) + Metallic paint (700) + destination charge (500).
Total is 51.7K.
If you can get for 40K that means almost 12K off from MSRP ???
Can u get one for me? Where is that dealer??????

Ok, talked to my friend today..here was the breakdown on his deal. He agrees the dealerships are pretty ready to get rid of the 02 models. My friends boss purchased one for his wife with 4matic and only paid $1500 more for the vehicle.


Invoice 45,700
MSRP 49,100


Salesman was advised by my friend that he would only go $45,000 "out the door" which means tax, tag, title. (Edmunds TMV is 45,300) The deal was done. The car has 6 CD changer, Bose, Moonroof, no 4 matic, metallic paint. We live in Florida, so no need for heated seats; etc. This is a large volume dealer in Florida, but I am sure there are dealers in Cali who are willing to sell for the TMV.
