If the advertised car really has P1 and Keyless then it is a $57,345 MSRP car even in polar white. The only way to get the monthly payment on a 27 month lease down to the advertised $379 is if they're selling it $12k off MSRP with a 60% residual value and a 0.00145 money factor. That sounds like a really strong sale and I doubt you'd find any dealer beating that one. With $0 down it would be $507/month.

Do you mind to PM me a name of your sales person. I am ok with $10k discount so going to pickup the car over weekend. If you want to get $12k or more I suggest to wait until Christmas time when dealers will eager to sale for cheap.

2014 E350
Hey guys. Long time lurker. This site, along with the Edmunds Townhall link posted on this thread, really helped me with a recent purchase, so I wanted share my experience.
I recently purchased a 2014 E350 Sport in the SF Bay Area. I had 3 offers from dealers (RAB Motors in San Rafael, Fletcher Jones in Fremont, and MB of Oakland) in the 15% of MSRP range with very little negotiation. I'd highly recommend reaching out to the Internet Sales teams in these dealerships.
I had a 4th offer of 8% off MSRP from MB of Fairfield.
I did not receive a response from Walnut Creek, Pleasanton, or Autobahn in Belmont.
I hope this helps. Good luck!

2014 E350
I went to the dealership with Bank of America financing in place and was in and out in about 75 minutes.
I chose the Oakland dealership, b/c they had models that more closely matched my wish list and the buying experience I had was great.

I am really glad you bought it from Oakland. I bought most of my Mercedes from them, they were a little pushy but Okay, however last time I had horrible experience with a finance manager, so they even didn't send me survey since knew I will rate them zero. It looks like they did right decision and fired that strange lady, replaced sales people and became a decent dealership again.

Is that with or without loyalty? I don't mind making a drive back up North.

Thanks for pointing on Edmunds talk. I think the guys are talking about right, max discount you can take $10K-$11k for now. I can't give much light on my deal now, since still negotiating. I believe I can take $7k-$8k off MSRP, but I do not have right negotiation skills and I am in SFBA, so my dealers are Autobahn and Oakland which are named as crappiest and it is true. Anyone has experience with Smithy European (San Jose)? I am going there over weekend but I am not sure how to talk to the guys.

I've been negotiating in Southern California and have received quotes for about 11k-11.5k off MSRP on a 60-62k range 2014 E250 for about 18-19% off MSRP. I've also noticed that there is a $500-$700 charge included in the "dealer net invoice" which I believe are regional ad fees. Does anyone know if the regional ad fees apply to vehicles that are pre-ordered as opposed to cars sitting in the dealers available inventory? Is this fee about the same across the US? Thanks for your help.
Most local internet sales staff will provide a quote such as $2300 below invoice plus any applicable MB incentives which currently is $5000 for purchase and $3000 for lease for the month of October. I'm hopeful those incentives will be place for Nov and Dec as well.

Here's my suggestion.
Do it in November when there are plenty of color options to pick on the dealer lot. If you want until end of December then you risk smaller dealers running out of Winter program certs.

I did a lease 27 months. Here's my build
Black/tan 4 matic
P1
Lighting package
Lane Tracking package
Parking assist package
Pano roof
Amg wheels
Keyless go package
Sport steering wheel
Msrp was just under 67k.
Money due was 1000 at signing, maintenance included, tax in, my payment is 599. I think it worked out to be just over 12k off Msrp.

Do you really need maintenance package for a 27m lease?
You are most likely going to do one oil change only at 10k miles and then pull-ahead for another lease at 24th month just before the second oil change.
But still a good deal for a very LOADED car.
Cheers!
My dealer added the "Finishing Touch" warranty for free so I am not responsible for spoiled / stained carpet or water spots when I turn in the car later. GRAY INTERIOR ... It gets dirty by looking at it.

For me it made sense, the total cost for the service was only 230 dollars, so that's the cost of the A service. If I end up keeping the car for 20k miles, it's like getting the B service at no cost.

Congratulations and do not forget to post pictures. You have very interesting color combination. Regarding discount, it should be reflected in your paper work, but honestly who really read it when you get so good numbers.

So did you get 12k off yet? That's the best I can do so far and was wondering if you are able to do better...it is for any 2014 regardless of msrp
