MB E350 BLUTEC
2019 E450 4matic sedan buying/pricing advice needed

I plan to buy this car before the end of the year. I can't remember the details, but I bought my last MB (E350 BluTEC) in 2012 buy researching what the dealer paid and offering some amount over as profit. I did all negotiation via email and did not speak to the salesperson until I picked up the car. What are the current techniques for deciding how much to offer to get a good/reasonable price...a percentage off MSRP or ??. FYI, I plan to buy the car and live in Southern California. Thank you in advance for any your expertise and advice.

I started a thread back in October which should answer most of your questions:


Ordered 2019 E450: Money Factor, residual and lease payments


A good place to start is with a Costco affiliated Mercedes dealer.

2018 S560 and 2019 E450 Wagon.
I managed to get ten grand off my 80K sticker 2019 E450 Wagon, I did have a good trade in though and think the dealer made some off that. I got a Cabriolet also but only got 4 grand off 84K on that car as the allocations on those are much more limited. I guess it really depends on what car your buying and with what options and body style and how many are available.

Wow, 12+% off on '19 E450? MB of Sarasota or elsewhere?

Sarasota, but like I said I think they made their money on my Trade, I tried to get more for the trade but figured I better not walk away from the deal as it was so much off on the Wagon, plus they went and got the car for me from a 500 mile away dealer. They were pretty good to deal with, I would definitely recommend them.
