I got my invoice price from Consumer Reports. Then I added the extras I wanted to that price.

MSRP/sticker was 47,500
I paid 41,500 (which was 500 over my target price of 41)

This was the first price they gave me. In other words, I could have prolly shaved another 1k off minimum. But I was so shocked and pleased that they started so low, I completely relaxed and did not bother to negotiate further.

This was Mercedes Benz of Tampa.

I have a 2016 GLC with panoramic roof, Burmester, multimedia package, sport package, etc. The only thing I wish it had is ventilated seats (it does have heated seats).

I haven't ordered yet, still trying to decide what I want, but I was quoted 8.8% off MSRP on a 2017 GLC. This was via email without yet even speaking to a sales rep.

My_1st_MB

13% off MSRP on 2016 is decent deal since they are trying to clear out the 2016 MY to make room for 2017 MY.

Curious what kind of additional fee did they tag on.

MY 2017 GLC300 from Montreal/Canada comes out to $1000.00 even on a 36 month lease.

Looks like a nice loadout, congrats!

I'm a new member here and new to Mercedes. This is an awesome forum with plenty of useful information. Thank you every one for your collaboration that help newbies like me. I live in Chicago and I got 7% off MSRP on a 2017 GLC300 4Matic Selenite Grey. Apparently, it is hard to get anywhere close to 10% off in Illinois. The salesman was honest (atleast that's what I thought) and showed me all the sales in the last quarter and the max anyone managed to get is 4%. I am happy with it though, as I was able to find the vehicle of my color and configuration in stock.

there was a destination fee of 600 bucks i believe

thats it

Madman7

Destination fee (US) is $925.

My_1st_MB

$925 is standard.

Getting ur choice is the most important thing. You can buy a car with an extra $2k discount but driving it everyday for next 10 years, you don't want to miss the fact that it isn't selenite grey and does not have .........

Hello all. I'm new to this whole forum thing, and I have no experience in building a car.


I have been following you all for a couple of weeks now and have received great info. Thanks!


Before I had decided on making GLC300 my choice, I had a general conversation with a salesperson. I was informed that I could build one to my liking with a nonrefundable deposit of $2000.

Is $2000 average or too much to put down on a build?
Nonrefundable?! I can't imagine putting money down and it being nonrefundable if I decide to go elsewhere if I have yet signed on the dotted line.


Help please.
Enlighten me!

WOW...and NO! Run, don't walk, away from that dealership (or minimally from that sales rep)!

Go to mbusa.com and you can build out the vehicle, although I don't think the build program on the MB site reflect the 2017 packaging (I could be wrong on that).

THEN you can go see the dealer with full info at your fingertips.

BmwGLC300

No, don't waste $2,000. If you deposit $2,000 and the space of price negotiation will be zero. Please don't do that and walk away that dealer.

My_1st_MB

THE MB USA website has been updated to allow you to built MY 2017 now.

$2000 is more than the typical $500. HOWEVER, it should NEVER be non-refundable.

HamBo35

Thanks so much! I felt like $2000 was excessive.
the salesperson even put this information in a text message.


I will definitely go to the website. I had to ask because I could not find anything that gave me the amount of deposit on a build.


thanks so much!

HamBo35

Thank you!
this is probably why I have yet gone back to try to negotiate.
$2000 just didn't sit well with me.


thank you so much

So $500 is the average deposit and it's refundable. That's so much better than $2000.



I just could not find this information anywhere.
thank you!

My_1st_MB

But $2000 is not unheard of. I was quoted $2000 & refundable by a dealer.

clarst

It's totally up to the discretion of the dealer. Our dealer asked for $2000, which we had no problem with. Since it was refundable, I did not find that unreasonable, since it was conceivable that we could order the car and decide not to take it. The deposit is a sign of good faith. Ours was a pricey build, and the dealer has the exposure of possibly ending up with a car that might be hard to move if the potential buyer decides to walk.

FirstBenz@62

During my search for my GLC 300 I was told at one dealership that a $500 deposit applied which was only refundable when they sold the car. My final choice dealership advised $1000 deposit which was fully refundable and not contingent on selling the car. Seems each dealer has their own deposit requirements. I would be wary of any nonrefundable deposit as a means to lock you into a purchase.

Got 10% off MSRP on an ordered 2017 GLC. Apply $1000 voucher from my American Express Credit Card along with $100 in free accessories.

NewMBOwner707

Location: Northern California
Ordered a 2017 GLC300 4Matic
$500 refundable deposit (California law prohibits non-refundable deposits)
Pre negotiated $4k off MSRP = roughy 6.7% off
No additional dealer concessions
