Dealing with Dealers in 2023

I would like to purchase a new 2024 AMG GLA 35. As of August 2023, my dealer says I can place the order, but MB has not released the price yet. I understand that the base price will be a little higher than the 2023 models. My question is, how do you negotiate the price or shop dealers if you don’t have and MSRP or dealer invoice? Anyone been in this position before? Any advise? Should I place the order and try negotiating when the car comes in?

Mike

Beware scummy dealers. MB dealers are scummier than most.

You don’t have a deal until a price is written on a piece of paper with two signatures on it.

Look at last year's price, should be pretty similar, and go at them with a % off you think is reasonable.

not like you gain anything by buying early before MB is ready
