You don’t know until you ask.
My dealer, 1 1/2 hours away, told me, and then in writing after a salesman switch, confirmed “No ADM.”
Mine was the first order they took. What may have happened since then, I have no idea.
Ship with car now estimating arrival B’more in 4 days, on the 11th. It’ll be tough to have it for Christmas, but there are “12 Days of Christmas!”
I’d like to get the deal done in ‘21. Still checking tax credits and chat
Interesting that the lower VIN-based insurance quote is 2/3 of the higher.
Still checking Charger install and tax credits.

Chicagoland dealers’ ADM is now $25,000 for a 450 and up to $50,000 for a 580. This is not just for unsold cars that are about to be shipped but also for new customer orders that may take up to 8 months. I was looking forward to buying a 580, but now will be looking at Lucid instead. Wondering if anyone in other areas is encountering similar markups?

My dealer in RI from which I have bought 5 previous cars is selling me a 580 at MSRP. Said previous customers are getting cars at MSRP, new customers are charged $5000 over list. Took my GLE in recently to North Palm Beach for service and wandered in the showroom for a quick peek. Surprisedly no salesman jumped on me. Have a dark blue 450+ on the floor but no price was listed. Had a GLE 53 list price at 100k with market adjustment of 30k. I can only imagine what they are asking for a 580.

I have my 2 vehicles serviced at North Palm Beach. Every car for sale in the showroom had an adjusted market price from $5-30000. The demo 480+ didn’t have a price on it but the other cars tell me the mark up is quite a bit. Ordered my 580 thru my RI dealer for list.

This is idiotic. 450s are over produced. They will be sitting on lots. My Atlanta dealer will gladly sell a 450 with confirmed allocation for MSRP.
its the 580s that are hard to get.

I've been going through the same issue in NYC. I feel like writing a letter to Mercedes USA and letting them know these dealers are slowing down their company's progress and price gouging. I tried several dealerships and attempted several orders through RODO and every time we start the process, after the car is advertised as available, the dealers immediately reject offers. Its not right and it is leaning me towards Audi/Porsche EVs.
I want a white or red EQS580, fully loaded, if anyone has any hookups, please forward their contact.

This website shows who has EQS. Some may be pre-sold, but I suspect a lot of the 450 are available. Interestingly it also shows the expected markup based on previous pricing with each dealer. You can see some dealers have close to no markup and some have large markups.

I live in New England for the summer and Florida for the rest of the year. I went to dealerships in both locations. I have bought several cars from my dealer up north and he is willing to sell a 580 at MRSP. Dealer in Florida wants a “market adjustment “ over MRSP. On a GLE 53 he wanted 30k over list. Needless to say I’m buying my 580 from my New England dealer.
