Replying to: suntan1 (Jul 11, 2005 11:58 am) What are Drive Dynamic Seats? Are they like "sport seats" like some cars have in sport packages? Replies to this message: suntan1 (Jul 12, 2005 10:59 pm)

Replying to: kennynmd (Jul 12, 2005 8:51 pm) Hi, kennynmd! Mollymax said above that she has them on her CDI so she may be able to describe them better. From what I understand (at least from the salesman), the side bolsters of the seats fill with air and bolster up during sharp turns so that you are kept in place. There is also supposed to be some sort of massage function, but I didn't quite understand that, honestly. Again, maybe mollymax is in a better position to elaborate further.   I just got so confused when the salesperson showed me two cars with two premium packages --- one corresponding to the website and one to the brochure --- that I finally decided (wisely!) to let my wife make the decision!   Cheers!

Is the names of my female cat and Max my male cat.............I'm a male. Anyway you are right about the bolster's filling up with air and holding you in the seats during turning maneuvers. Wish my Z06 Corvette had that option. The massage function is pretty neat..........my wife likes that on her back. The ventilated seats are "COOL". Another nice option is the 6 disk CD player that you load from the dash. The GPS is not as good as the Magellion Roadmate 700 (understatement). Replies to this message: suntan1 (Jul 13, 2005 9:19 am)

Replying to: mollymax (Jul 12, 2005 11:25 pm) Deepest apologies, mollymax! My bad!   Hmmm....now you're really making me wonder if we shouldn't have gone with the DD seats rather than the leather upholstery and wood steering wheel....sigh.

When I used the cats names I didn't think it too much about it, but now I guess I should have. In the long run the DD seats could be a liability if the air bags or air pump fail. Enjoy your leather seats ..............and the wood steering wheel looks real rich.

Replying to: mightyjoon (Jul 03, 2005 8:36 am) Don't know where you are located but I got my 2006 E350 at $2700 below invoice at Laguna Niguel, CA. Good Luck!   This would be the deal of the century, there are no incentives or marketing support money on the 06 E350. The invoice, less 3% holdback, is the dealers actual cost to purchase the vehicle from MB. On a completely loaded MB E, the 3% would amount to about $1,800.00 less than invoice. So the dealer is selling below cost to this gentleman at $2,700.00 less than invoice and this does not include the dealers advertising, overhead, vehicle prep and commision costs. At that price the dealer may not last long! Replies to this message: suntan1 (Jul 14, 2005 9:20 am)

Replying to: sacguy (Jul 13, 2005 9:32 pm) Maybe he means the MSRP. As you know, the dealers tend to stick that page of details with the MSRP price on the window of the new cars. Maybe he thought that was the "invoice"?   Separately, is the dealer's invoice price really the *actual* price that the dealer pays MB for the car? I mean, do they get other "discounts" like maybe bulk discounts, etc, that would lower the unit price in a way that is not reflected on the invoice? The reason I ask is that the dealer showed me the invoice for my new E350 and the price he offered me was around $500 below that. I don't really think he would actually sell me a car at a loss, would he?
#165 of 428 NOT if he can sell it for more........ by mollymax Jul 16, 2005 (5:31 pm)
See title above.........
#166 of 428 $51,825.00 by mollymax Jul 16, 2005 (11:29 pm)
Is now the base price MSRP with no options.
#167 of 428 Just bought 1996 E320 with 118K Miles by maier_oregon Jul 18, 2005 (1:00 pm)
1st time MB owner. Would appreciate comments on what to expect next 20K, I only drive 8-9K per year. Thank you. Replies to this message: ccmbduong1 (Sep 11, 2005 3:09 am)
