New Years Eve: 2014 ML350

I've always heard New Years Eve is the best day of the year to purchase a car. I'm not sure I can purchase on any other day now!

I feel that we got an incredible deal on a 2014 on the lot that had everything on our requirement list + several items that we didn't care about. We were offered a decent trade-in on our 2011 Volvo XC60 R-Design so we're now proud owners of two Mercedes-Benz SUVs.

2014 ML350 4Matic
- Black with black MB tex
- P01 package
- harman/kardon
- lighting package
- lane tracking package
- keyless-go
- ambient lighting
- trailer hitch
- running boards (didn't want these but it already had them)
- illumination kit for running boards (didn't want, still don't really like it)
- accessory chrome package (didn't want but it's growing on us)
- pre-wiring for rear seat entertainment (didn't care)
- rear side airbags (didn't care but glad it has them)

Purchased for $55.5k.

Excited and looking forward to being a part of this community, as well as remaining in the X204 GLK board.

Cheers!

Congratulations! 10% of MSRP seems like a good deal to me. I've got about the same and was very happy as well.

Congrats! I guess when Santa is involved, discounts tend to get a bit more elastic.

Congrats on your new ML350.


The other day I went to a dealer and she quoted MSRP as $68K for something similar to what you got. She said that she's give me some discount, but I dont see her coming down to $55.5.

The $55.5K price, was it out the door (including Tax/Tags/ProcessingFees)?

$55.5k was before their dealer "handling/prep" fee which was $599 I believe. This also did not include tax. We haven't paid tags yet, still have another week on the temp tag then guessing it'll be ~$1,100 at the DMV. The refreshed 2015's are coming in a few months ... I'd think this may make a few more "deals" happen on the 2014's.

Thanks for the prompt response.

2015 models should be coming out around September, right?
Not sure if I can wait that long. My old car is giving up -

My dealer would probably slap me if I ask for 55.5k.

I placed an order in September and got the car on November 27th. The MSRP was 63,315 (including the destination charge). Price agreed we agreed upon was 58,080 + incentives that are going on during delivery.

I had no loyalty programs or anything else. When I was picking the car up I got another $1,000 off the price which was from some incentive that was not being advertised for some reason.

Total price came out to 57,080 + tax + 380 (dealer and registration fees).

The car:
2014 ML350 BlueTEC, Polar White, Black MB-Tex, Satin Ash Wood Trim
Options: Premium 1 Package, Lighting Package, Heated Steering Wheel,
Harman Kardon Sound, Keyless-GO, Driver Assistance Package, MB-Tex Wrapped Dash
