Deals on '09 Gs?

Anyone out there in the market for an '09 G? What kind of deals are you getting? It looks like the 1.9% doesn't apply to the G? Has anyone gotten their dealership to include it?

Looking to arrange a test drive in an '09 G55 an area dealership has.

Great question!!!

I am not talking to any Dealers ... but on the web ... the best price I have seen on a new G550 was around $90K and a new G55K $114K ... both eBay 'Buy it now', so you might do a little better if you called

I am waiting/hoping for a Dealer 'incentive', now that all the 2008 G's are sold

MBUSA just put out their April sales numbers, and they sold 50 G's last month ... a lot more than I expected (almost as many as their R's [woof!])

P.S. I have seen no used 2009 G55's on any sites ... but a half dozen used 2009 G550 (all in Black) 'Asking' in the mid-$80K's

Sweet ... and please posts pics!!!

"ordered" ... Is it being shipped from another Dealer, or at Port, or from Overseas?

Did you ask about changes on the 2010?

The truck is still on the water and I am taking delivery at the end of the month.

I will post some pics once I get it.

Interesting ...

EBay has 4 brand new G55's being sold by a Car Dealer in Florida called Fenix. This is the first time I have ever seen brand new Mercedes being sold by a reseller

Fenix seems to market to foreign Buyers ... but if that is the way MBUSA plans on getting rid of the '09's ... then 'Deals' may be limited

edit ... here is a link to one of them:

MBZ does not allow exporting of brand new vehicles. These might have been damaged in transport and thus they would go to a wholesaler not a dealer.

fyi ... Fenix has had these on sale for months listed above MSRP

Clearly this is a scam to get around MBUSA export rules ... but if they were damaged, shouldn't they be listed as such ... or at least as 'Used'?

P.S. If MBUSA damages 4 G55's in shipping ... so bad they have to be wholesaled, and not just touched up ... they need a new Shipper (lol)

Accidents happen, remember when all the BMW's were damaged in transport.
There was a big accident with Volvo I belive, where an entire ship sank.

It would be disclosed in the dealer paperwork, but once the MBZ dealer got rid of it they do not have to.
