New 2010 S550?

I see some dealers still have new 2010 S550s on their lot. How much under list price would these cars go for?

They are still out there as I just saw a new 2010 S63 sold 2 weeks ago. MB of Greenwich is showing over 10 2010 S550's on their website unless it is a listing error.

Probably started the warranty clock a long time ago however. There were double digit incentives to do so.

Warranty clock starts at the time of delivery (i.e. at purchase).

I always thought the warranty clock began when the car enters the dealership (the in-service date). Didn't realize that. learn something new everyday!

Actually, the in-service date is when the purchase is made by the first owner.

Titleist
Unless it is a "punch" vehicle. Still new, but left on the lot unsold, unwanted past its model year.

One of the Porsche dealers here seems to have several leftovers well past model year end each year (I suspect because the inventory manager has zero imagination when ordering new cars, or they don't sell enough to get much more than allocation cars). They offer huge incentives on those cars, but the MFR's warranty is either already under way (although zero miles on the car) or expired altogether. They can offer extended warranty coverage on the car (after market warranty) to cover the buyer if desired.

I once considered a 911 Cab that was a leftover, but when looking into the details, the past model depreciation and warranty details offset any purchase $ savings in my mind, so I opted for another car from the current model year. Both were "new," undelivered cars.
