Characteristics/costs of E350 by tennisgal
Apr 02, 2007 (4:13 pm)
Reply
I just test drove the E350 today and have questions. I was told the Bluetooth connection was extra and the brochure says you have to have an approved phone as well. Does anyone know what the cost and approved phones are? Should this extra charge be in the final price when I am getting quotes?
 
The salesman did not tell me there were 2 modes of driving, Sport and Comfort mode. When I gave him feedback on the car (I said steering was odd) he told me I was in Sport mode and that I should test drive it again in Comfort mode later (he had an appointment). Any comments on that? BTW,dealer is in Newport Bch, CA in case you have comments about that.
 
I avg 8k mi/year and am thinking of buying the car vs leasing it. Would I be better off with a pre-owned since the car will be a dinosaur before it has 100k?
 
Lastly, is this a guy car? I really like the way it looks but it seems geared for a guy.

Bluetooth was about $300 extra for the adapter. I had them throw it in to my lease deal. I believe the dealer has a list of approved phones.
 
For 8K miles of driving per year, consider the 27mo. or 36 mo. lease. Just my opinion.

Could anyone share a dealer in the Westchester/Connecticut Area that gave them a great deal?
I'm looking for purchase a 350 4matic with P1 package..
Is it really possible to buy invoice price? or in the ballpark of invoice? If so, how do you go about doing so?
If anyone did so in the tri-state NJ/conn/NJ please let me know the dealer and I'll buy my 350 there.. thanks for your help..

I was able to purchase the E350 I wanted from Mercedes of Beverly Hills... it came with the P1 package, wood package, and an Ipod conncetion. The sticker was approx 54500, and I paid 49800, which was just slightly under invoice, with no extra charge for the wood and ipod extras... Hope this helps anyone currently looking!

how did you approach the dealer? did you just say I'll give you 49,800 for the car? did the dealer just offer that to you? I would appreciate advice on how to approach and get a great price like you did.. btw congratulations.. thanks for your advice..

Keep in mind that the SP is a no charge extra on the E.

E350 4Matic Lease by ed4040

Hi All,
  
I'm looking at leasing a E350 4matic with the P1 package, sport package in Flint grey with ash interior. A dealer in the NY area quoted me the following two options:
  
27 month lease 15K miles
$820/month including tax
$2,000 out of pocket Includes first payment, acquisition fees, drive off, etc.
  
Or
  
27 month lease 15K miles
$760/month
$3,400 out of pocket Includes first payment, acquisition fees, drive off and taxes paid in advance(that's the additional $1,400 at drive off)
  
The purchase price is $54,400 and they're telling me the money factor is .00175 and the residual is 67%.
  
Do either of these sound like a good deal? Thanks in advance for your insight!
