Smile Rebates for ML?

Hi Everyone! I am interested in buying a ML. Does anyone knows if the Mercedes rebates still valid for the ML model? And has anyone gotten any good deal in the Bay Area? Thank you

Anita:p

I think the dealer incentives were for the ML320's which seem to have dried up pretty quickly. I just bought my ML350 $2k under sticker with minimal haggling. They had in on the lot exactly like I wanted it though...

You're buying a Mercedes. If the dealer doesn't offer anything below invoice, just deal with it. If not, visit Honda.

2003 ML 350

I bought my ML350 for $2050 below MSRP plus I received a $1000 for having a coupon for previous ML owners (We owned
our previous 1999 ML320 for less than a month). The $1000 was applied to the down payment so that I did not save any taxes by having the $1000 coupon. The dealer had the ML350 in stock so I didn't have to wait for it.

I bought a 2003 ml500 with sport, xenon lights, bose sound, convience package and sunroof for 1500 below invoice. .the sale price was a little over 49000. I got it from the house of imports .. they didnt even have the car i wanted on their lot but they ordered it for me from a different dealer..
if you buy this car anything over invoice you are paying way too much.. ever dealer i got a quote from told me they would sell me the car either below invoice or at invoice.

ML500
The problem with trying to deal from 'invoice' is it's not the same for each dealer. Kelly/Edmunds pricing isn't correct either, they don't include the advertising allotment cost that the dealer gets charged. That charge adds about $600 to the invoice price.

Seems as though current prices tend to be around $2000-$3000 off of window sticker.

MSRP for my ml500 was $54,200.. and i got it for less then $50,000.. Actually kelley blue book and edmunds invoice was almost right for the invoice price only difference was the bose stereo it was off by a couple hundred dollars.. They only charged me $145 dollars for advertising and other dealer related stuff.. Its best to shop around at all the dealerships in your area.. I told house of imports that i have gotten 1000 below invoice offer from a different dealership and then they told me they could beat it.

ML500
That's almost the same discount I got on mine. It didn't have quite as many options, so not as much room to deal.
Great vehicles, aren't they?

Just wondering what others are paying for ML500s nowadays. I bought one last week for $42K with Sun Roof and Bose Sound system.
