January '15 gl incentives

Hi all-
Very close to pulling trigger on a gl550. I'm too impatient to wait until the gls - and as I'm coming out of my 6th q7, I'm very disappointed with the redesign regardLess of the weight savings they came up with.
I know there was 2,000 winter cash on gl550 last month - what is the current mercedes incentives(not including aba or usaa) being offered? My dealer says 1,000 for customer 1 cash but I thought it was higher.
Thanks in advance!

Ignore incentives each month blah blah blah anything else salespeople will tell you, generally MB has about 12% before you get into the cost of a vehicle so call dealers, and just see how far off MSRP they can go.

I was also disappointed with the new design of the q7 so I traded my my old q7 for a 550. For such a long awaited redesign, I was hoping for more.

I still haven't gotten the real answer. I've negoiated the selling price of the car. But the incentives make the price even lower. The dealer is willing to pass those savings along to me but I want to verify that the incentive is correct. They told me customer 1 cash is 1,000 dollars. So for example:
I buy the car for x negotiated price. The real price will be the the negotiated price minus the incentive. I'm just trying to ensure I'm getting the proper customer 1 cash. I know how to negotiate and get a fair deal for me and the dealership. I just want the extra Money that the dealer doesn't take a hit on. This is fleet/Mercedes usa money that is just gravy for me to save additional money

If it is on the lot - best day is tmrw - Feb will not be stronger - and all dealers have their own Jan targets to make - kindof a wierd month - by and large a bit short on sales.

were somewhat in the same boat, I have a 2014 Audi Q7, but when I saw the redesign, it looks like a wagon! so now im in a market for a new GL.
