Current W223 Deals
Hello all I am back in the market for another sedan for our limo fleet.
I purchased a CPO Cadillac CT6 twin-turbo that I absolutely love a few months ago, but our clients seem to not be as responsive to it as I am. They are accustomed to our S-classes, A8's, 7-series, and Range Rover so for them its like going from oceanview to garden view at the Four Seasons if they get picked up in it. So, it looks like its going to be replaced.
Anyhow, I'm thinking about the following options: 2023-2024 760i xdrive (can get about $24k-ish off b/c of livery incentives; its $18k below invoice + whatever the dealership wants to contribute) however finding a black one is sort of tough; a CPO 2020 W222; or a new W223 S500 or S580.
Thoughts? What is the general climate for deals on a new W223? When I last purchased it was August '21 and I got a S580 for $3k below MSRP and at 1.something APR.
I'm reading on the forum that there are dealings going on with the W223's including rebates? Any info?

S500 Major Savings
As of yesterday you can buy a brand new S500 and in my area get 7% off list along with a $10k discount direct from MB. The only catch being that MB will no longer produce the S500 after the current model year although I can’t imagine that would be a show stopper for most folks. I know I don’t care as the body style remains the same. Lastly, it is apparent that MB will soon abandon the Hybrid variants of the S class as No one really wants them and they sell poorly in the USA and in Europe almost no one will buy one. FYI, the cost to replace the hybrid battery in a 2021+ car is about $20k plus tax. It’s projected lifespan is about 7 years at best.

2023 S500
Man, I regret not waiting to buy mine, but I couldn’t stand my GLE any longer.
So no more S500?
When I was buying back in February, the new car marker was softening but the upper end still remained relatively strong (i.e., ridiculous dealer markups and not much movement under MSRP for expensive/desirable models). However, I get the sense the upper end of the car market is now softening. I say that because I now see brand new RS6s being advertised for MSRP whereas just a few months ago they all had ridiculous $25k+ markups. I haven’t checked Porsche lately, but they were the same around Christmas with stupid markups on Cayennes and Paneameras.
Maybe we’ll soon return to normality, where negotiated deals on upper-end cars are back.
