Looking to Buy a e500
Dear board,
I am lookign to buy a new e500 probablly a 2003 model year. I hear there was a backlog of cars at most dealers and they are willing to negotiate extremely good deals for the consumer to clear the cars.
Now my question is: Can those who recenlty purchased a E500 post what options they got on the car and the price they paid?
And if you have time any negotiating tips to get them to come down in price!
Thank you very much.
Your help is more then appreciated.

you can always look at www.carsdirect.com they have thier price, then, all of th eoptions are given at invoice. options wise, its really up to you. if you want the aid of parking, or if it is hard to get into your garage, parktronic might be a good option. if you want a cool feature, then keylessgo might be on your list, one key thing about keylessgo is that its nearly imposible to lock your key inside the car.

You don't post where you live, but the east coast (VA and NC for sure) is not as likely as California to deal. My dealer 3 weeks ago only had a few cars with recent inspection stickers, indicating they had arrived in the past few weeks. He's in a large market and has pretty good volume. Your location will let people give better answers.
