Additional Manufacturer's Rebate on '05 E500s

Hello Everyone,

Virgin post here. First off, thanks to everyone who contributes to this forum. It has helped to make my buying decision MUCH easier.

I was at Claridges on Tuesday (Mar 8) talking to their Sales Manager and he told me that MB just started offering an additional $2500 Manufacturers incentive that day.

Again, I'm a newbie, so I may not have exactly the right information, but he showed me the email that he just received that day. Anyway, along with another $2,000 incentive that has already been going on, that makes it $4,500 in total Dealer incentives.

Anyway, this forum has been really valuable to me, so I thought I'd try to contribute a little bit. Hope this helps people out.

i have a client who just bought a black on black E500 this very morning.
she's been looking at them for weeks. the dealer called her this morning and lowered his "final" price another $1,500 and she bought it.
must have been this incentive...

local dealer had a new remaining inventory 04 E500 for $10K off sticker. I guess it just got even cheaper!

Appreciate the contact info..will have to look into going out of state if I decide to not go local...

Funny, I just found that the dealer posted the local car I was inquiring about on eBay...price to me still seems high for a year old "demo" model..

Wow that is a bit high for a 2004. Brand new 2005's can be had at those prices (or lower) now.
