#571 of 1019 Re: Pricing on new c350 [jelly5] by sperry Mar 25, 2008 (8:06 am)
Replying to: jelly5 (Mar 19, 2008 7:15 am) The MSRP for the above is $44,400 and invoice is 41,351. Your over $2,000 over invoice. In my opinion you should be able to do better.   I ordered mine in December and it arrives this week. I paid $1,000 over invoice and have heard of people getting it down to $500 over invoice. There are many dealers in NY that you can do comparisons with. The only issue I see is this vehicle was a custom order which means no Dealer Holdback so they may be trying to recoop the loss.   Just my 2 cents.

Replying to: jrct9454 (Mar 24, 2008 5:17 am) There is also the Dealer Holdback. The dealer Holdback is applied to vehicles that are sold from the dealers inventory. It is anywhere from 1-3% that is paid to the dealer from the manufacturer. Not sure what Mercedes percentage is.   The Dealer Holdback does not apply for Custom Ordered Vehicles.   So if you custom order a vehicle and negotiate a selling price of $500 over invoice the dealers only profit is the $500. They may try to make up some of the profit in the financing, so be careful. Know the numbers before you talk to any dealer.   This is what I was told several years ago so if this is incorrect my appologies.

Replying to: jrct9454 (Mar 25, 2008 5:46 am) Thanks for your points. Like I said I like MB brand and our C230 was problem free. Reliability issues are statistically more prevalent on new car designs or any new releases. I'll keep you posted on how I get on with this trade. But I am prepared to walk away from MB if we can't agree with pricing. After all, BMW has a nicer shade of blue - in my opinion only. And pretty sure BMW will be only be too happy to take my trade for one of their comparable models. And we like to switch the cars out every 3 years fully owned not lease.

Replying to: sperry (Mar 25, 2008 8:13 am) ... is finally home. C300 Sport with Capri blue metallic, P01, Multimedia, automatic. She looked lean and mean and positively gorgeous as she came up our driveway. A bit late to take her for a joyride but she'll get plenty of showtime over the next few days. Thanks for your threads, it made getting a deal on this one more fun and adventurous. With MSRP of 38925, the best we can do is settle for a little under invoice and 38K OTD inclusive of a 20K trade on a C230 2006. And I'm happy to have done this deal with our hometown dealer in FL who was very polite and professional as expected of MB dealerships. I hope the car will be as trouble free as the C230.   Carabel

Replying to: sperry (Mar 25, 2008 8:13 am) Does anyone know if the dealer holdback applies to a vehicle that is transferred in from another dealer?

Replying to: tom215 (Mar 29, 2008 2:11 pm) Dealers do deals differently at different times. No current incentives on any C right now, so price the car with options, etc., look at invoice and make a fair offer to the dealer. If the car is on their lot already, you may fare better. Some people have gotten roughly 1K below invoice. They add on a 595 dealer fee plus registration and title - about $200 for those. Tax is based on the sell price so the lower it is, the less your tax is.
#579 of 1019 C300 4Matic Luxury by drew207 Mar 31, 2008 (4:44 pm)
Pulled the trigger today:   C300 Luxury 4Matic Black over Savannah Leather (leather was hard to find) P2 iPod adapter MSRP $40,600 Price $38,600   Leasing the car and agreed that dealer would extend the money factor at the buy rate. Waiting for April numbers to come out, expect they will either stay the same or go down, am very confident they won't increase.   If anyone is interested I'll be happy to post the final numbers, but expect payment to be in the $525 neighborhood with no down payment and just typical drive off fees and tax as total due at signing.
