thanks everyone! Yes Platinum Magno Paint. I still cant believe i scored this car considering i began shopping for it 6 weeks ago. Literally called 50 dealerships nationwide and if there was an allocation available they wanted 40-50k over msrp. Well.. honestly no thank you! I then got a call back from Irena @ Mercedes Benz of San Rafael (30 miles from home) and she asked if i was interested in an incoming 2020 car where the buyer had backed out. I said "not anymore cuz the markups are rediculous!" She chuckled and said who said anything about markup?... the car is being sold at msrp" To my disbelief i asked her to repeat herself couple times. Long story short she put my name on it and the rest is history.

Great to hear that not all US dealers are greedy *******s. In Canada, none charge over MSRP; and the G costs less in Canada than anywhere in the world, so they definitely could.
I hope Irena didn’t give you a terrible price on your trade or make you buy an A Class for $50K....

Congrats!!! That's great for you and for the dealership not charging over MSRP.

Were you forced to finance at a high interest rate? That's another common angle which is falsely sold as "no markup".

There is a strange misconception that Canada is a great place to buy a G. Yes, dealers cannot legally charge over MSRP for a brand new car, but the wait list for several Western Canada dealers is 3 or 4 years, with a 10% ($20,000) deposit held for that period. Many will not even accept deposits at this point anymore. Some have a 'used' G63 for $60k over list with 100km on the clock - they are playing the exact same game as US dealers.

As I understand it, it's a little better out East, if anyone knows of a dealer in Canada willing to take a deposit and sell to a BC customer...

It’s definitely not easy to get a new G in Canada. Precisely because they cost about 30% less here than in the US, and Mercedes doesn’t bring many to Canada.

I ordered mine with $0 deposit. I actually didn’t pay a single dollar until I went to pick it up! But I did wait about 3 years. I’ve bought 3 other cars from the same dealer in 5 years. Not huge, he definitely did me a favour. It’s all about the relationship you have with the Sales Manager (don’t even bother with a regular salesperson).

How was the paint maintenance? I am having second thoughts and may switch back to the same color.

Also, if you got this at MSRP, why is your lease so crazy high? A 175k lease on a 36 mo program, zero down, when I quoted it was about $2800/mo including tax here in WA?
