GLC350 Discounts US?
What kind of discounts are folks seeing on GLE350's? The 4 cyl is more than adequate for me and just beginning to think about lease-end of my GLC300.

Discounts
This was just posted by our Arkansas dealer friend, fabridds1, over in the main thread:
"On 2020 GLE's for the dealer at this moment - there are no added dealer incentives or extra "money" - so most dealers have a net invoice with about 5%-6% margin - so walk-in customer "discounts" are lean - regardless to spurious reports off/on about "10% off" and the like.
For some member's here in urban areas - there just might be "something" out there being delivered to another dealer that "might work" - the hard part if you want to check that it requires effort on either by email/internet inquiry - or the old fashioned phone thing.
At fixed margin - no extra incentive - makes any dealer reluctant to do a "trade search" - the only added incentive for a dealer is at absolute end-of-the-month - where dealers will be more open minded to go flat out as much as invoice - to get the added new car "punch" to help make their monthly new car units sales goals (with end-June being month-end and end-of-quarter as well)."
