As our dear friend and MB Guru Konigstiger posted: "Fleet incentives cannot be used in conjunction with Dealer Employee Purchase Program (DEPP), Mercedes Vehicle Plan (MVP), Master Lease Program (MLP), Diplomat, European Delivery, Courtesy Vehicle Program (CVP), Special Demos, Competitor Conquest Program, other Fleet Programs (Executive Allowance Bonus (EAB) or Fleet Employee Program (FEP)), or non-U.S. Specification vehicles.”

So, this got me thinking: we should all chime in and make a list of all possible discounts, incentives, etc. and who might qualify for them and how they might go about getting them.

The best one I have used in the past, was the USAA discount, which was $1,500.00. Anybody else?

American Bar Association (ABA). To get this discount you have to be a member of the American Bar Association with a student or lawyer membership.

The current discount is $1,500 for the E (it changes every few months. When I used it for mine it was only $1,000).

MB Deal through an MB employee yields 12.25% off MSRP. Start networking, and it pays off....

Seriously speaking, the best price you can get is how well you can negotiate and that's done through research and research and then you decide on the price you are willing to pay. The last 4 cars I purchased was done through emails, always with several dealers. When the right price is confirmed in writing, I go to the showroom to finalize the deal.

Whether you are buy off the lot or ordering the car, the process is the same.
