2025 GLE 350 Discount off MSRP
I am in the market for a 2025 GLE 350 and would like to place a custom order. How much discount do dealers typically give in the current market? I appreciate any help you can provide.

I assume you're in the US.
The discount off MSRP by itself doesn't matter much, as the price of the car is just one line item the dealers make money off. You can get a high discount off MSRP but get taken advantage of on your financing, lease, or numerous add-ons. There are also regional deviations dictated by demand for that particular vehicle. To normalize it a bit, let's say you pay cash (no dealer financing, not a lease) and decline all add-ons (dealer-installed stuff, extra warranties, etc.), then your dealer is left with only the price of the car and potential invoice adjustments by the manufacturers. In this case, your MSRP discount will be minimal, typically 0-4% for the next year's customized base/mid-tier allocation. On 350s, you can probably get more by buying off the lot and even more if you go with the 2024 model, which is essentially the same vehicle.
Your mileage may vary, but I believe the above illustrates the general framework. Don't forget to check AMEX/Sam's Club incentives, as these are in addition to the price negotiated with your dealer.

You should be able to get between 3-5% check with multiple dealerships and I’m not sure which area you live in but you might want to check different regions as pricing can vary depending on that too. I am in the Northeast so there are plenty of dealerships and competition is always good for better pricing. As the previous post states AMEX has incentives it was $5500 off a 2024 GLE when I was looking and dropped to $500 off on a 2025 but they change month by month and if you order car by time it comes in can be more than $500. You can definitely save 5-10% off an in stock 2024 model combining dealer discount and AMEX. Best wishes!

Have you test driven the GLE350? With a 0-60 time of 7 seconds, you may be disappointed with the performance. Even in Washington DC traffic, you may want (need) more than that.

2025 GLE53 SUV
@sk123 thanks for the tip on James Park at EuroMotorcars in Bethesda, MD. I did a custom order for a 2025 GLE53 with him from NC. I received it last week, and it was a very smooth process with him start to finish with good communication. He gave me the same 10% off msrp.
