Talking Two '05 E55's Available

I stopped by one of my local MB dealers yesterday, Barrier Motors in Bellevue, WA. They have two '05 E55's for sale. One is silver/black with 11 miles and the other black/black with 20 miles on it. The silver/black has only a couple of options, MSRP $85k asking price $100k. The black/black is loaded with almost every option, MSRP $95k asking $110k.

Ridiculous. Dealer should be slapped. With sales tax, you are gonna be close to 120!

All the dealers in my area will sell AMG at MSRP. Even the 65's are going for MSRP that are in the showrooms.

I can't believe people are still asking over MSRP...that's crazy. No offense, I love my car and all but it ain't worth $100K - geez

Remember, though, that MikeE55 is talking about Bellevue, WA - a short commute from Redmond - land of special markups for Microsoft execs with $$$ burning a hole in their pocket. They'll probably sell every one w/ the markup.

MSRP is still the rule here in Atlanta, regardless of model.

Yea but anyone with half a brain can buy the car a state over, pay no more than a grand to ship it, and its done. Forget 20+ grand over sticker.

For 120 grand Id be looking at TT territory..not the beast.

But if you just have to have it TODAY Barrier will be more than happy to bend you over and give it to you!! Of course they offered me $30k for my '01 in trade for the $110k '05. They'd probably end up making $40k on the deal. Not bad huh? And they act like they'd be doing me a favor. I'll NEVER buy a car from them. I was just curious what you people would have to say about this sleazy dealer $15k over MSRP markup.

I was just at my local dealership last week and they have a 2005 E55 (black/charcoal). I'm sure they'll sell at a discount. I think sticker was $86k or so, I bet they'd give a few K of the price.

Over sticker is just stupid, PM if you want my dealership information to contact.
