With the new style 'o6's out now wanted to see if anyone has purchased an 'o5 and what deals, if any, people are finding on these..

(read some where about a factory to dealer discount of $3k to help move them) but have no idea if this is true or not...

 

There are some good deals out there, depending on where you're located. But, don't expect miracles. Look for somewhere below invoice. Definitely don't pay MSRP. I believe at msn.com in their car section, there's a rebate/discount page which tells you what discounts are being offered. Do a web search for dealer/manufactrurer's discounts. May get lucky!!!

 

I just purchased an 05 ML500 with all possible options with the exception of Lighting Package for approx $10K off. Sticker was $52700 and I got it for $42K even. I believe it was in combination of manufacturer incentive with dealer discounts to make space for the 06's

Shopping for prices thru the internet definitely helps. Sites like carsdirect.com and edmunds.com are great references for getting in contact with dealers' internet sales managers.

Good luck shopping.

 

Thanks Auxo for the info...

Pretty familiar with the internet sites but wanted to get some "real-world" numbers for comparision.
