| Did you really pay 700 over Euro delivery invoice?If so I would compensate you if you emailed me your dealer and price info.Sorry beggars such as myself can't be choosey! | |
| I love to drive a hard bargain! | |
|
Heh, it's okay to post prices and dealer names here. It's just not okay to post specific salesfolks names or specific contact information. No need to "compensate" anyone - LOL! |

| No, I paid $700 above invoice for U.S. delivery. MBUSA, through the dealer, said they couldn't have the car ready for Euro delivery on 6 Oct and that I'd have to wait until the 16th. I couldn't postpone the trip ten days because my wife is a teacher, so took delivery in Huntsville, AL on 24 Oct. But the car was built on 9 Sep. Seems like they could have had it over there on the date I'd wanted. BTW, BMW will negotiate for Euro delivery. MB ought to also. Good luck. | |
| Oh I see,you paid 700 over 44,129 or 43,664 before ttl which is the US invoice price.Sounds like the dealer inconvenienced you for their own convenience on the dates for pickup in Germany! | |

It was 700 over invoice, so it was more like 44,829 plus options at invoice. We added metallic finish (pewter) and the sunroof package. We were a little apprehensive about getting one w/o the HK sound system, but the standard MB 10-speaker system turned out to be really good. We're not disappointed. It wasn't that MB inconvenienced us, but they disappointed us. We'd really looked forward to the trip. We had two business-class tickets to Munich, arriving on the 3rd. After Okoberfest, we'd planned to take the train to Stuttgart on the 5th and pick the car up on the 6th. Then we were going to meander up through Rothenberg and the Rhine on back roads to near Cologne for easy break-in. Put in a few mile on the Autobahn and into Holland. Then turn the car in at Schiphol on the 10th and fly home on the 11th. I'd cashed in some miles, so the whole shebang would have cost less than one large. At least we saved a few bucks by not going and I'm getting the miles back for a small charge. |

| I appreciate your assistance,most dealers I have spoken to have denied ever going below Euro Delivery MSRP they have said that if you do not work for Mercedes Benz you can't get it any lower,I guess that was bull! | |
|
Anybody purchase an E500 sedan or wagon without 4matic who would be able to tell me what they paid, excluding tax and license. Thanks! |
|
| Since we had to take US delivery, I can't comment on MB's saying they won't go below sticker less 5% for Euro delivery. I do know that BMW, MB's competitor does negotiate. If MB wants to sell cars, they can either negotiate or watch folks shop elsewhere - unless customers really want an MB that much. | |
