2006 E320 CDI -Premium Package -Sirius Radio -Iridium Silver (Metallic Paint) -MSRP listed on Window Sticker: $55,965 With no negotiation on my part, dealer came back with a price of $50,500 + Tax, Title & License. Car still has shipping plastic on it and only 16 miles. Seems like a pretty reasonable deal to me, but please give me your feedback. Thanks

The last few cars I have bought "preowned" All 3 were MBs. 4 months ago I bought a 2005 CDI. It had only 3500 miles and I have the original sticker for $64,000. It has EVERYTHING including panorama roof,dynamic vented front seats,parktronic,keyless go, full leather pkg, light pkg,electronic trunk,nav,HK sound system etc. Paid $48,000. 18 months ago bought a SLK350 with only 1800 mi on it---90 days old. Almost 20% off sticker. Located both cars on the internet but did not buy until I actually saw the cars.Had to follow sites for 2-3 months until I found these cars. No more buying new from MB dealer for me. Together saved $25,000 off list on the 2 cars |

My 2005 CDI has a water problem. Whenever it rains, the trunk lid ends up with water IN it. When I open and then close the lid I can hear and feel water rolling around and shifting in there. Plus the inside of the trunk is wet. Anyone else with this same problem? Thanks, David - VA |

Hello, and thank you for reading this. I'm new to the forum experience but I have been watching your forum for the last year or so. I've finally worked up to the Mercedes. This will be my first one and I would like make sure I can get the best deal with your help. I've pre-arragned financing at my bank 3.90 for 60m I plan on putting up $18k myself to keep my payment cheap. I've spoken to the manager in Baton Rouge told him I would be paying cash. He offered invoice price and mentioned $3500 cash back if I buy this month. However I am in Military in Bahrain and won't be back until 2nd of November. Would waiting until I got back get me a better change of a deal since the 07's are coming in the next week or so? Or should I make the deal now becuase the cash back program will be over? The TMV price with the options is saying $55k. With the new year coming out can I get it cheaper, I am willing to travel

Replying to: tuffy72 (Oct 12, 2006 5:34 am) One other thing to consider if you are thinking of a CDI. The new Bluetech engines are not iron, but aluminum alloy. translated- not as durable. I think this is right. Plus, in order to comply with new emissions regs they have some sort of tank the exhaust flows through where it's mixed with some sort of chemical to "detoxify" it. This tank needs to be emptied and refilled periodically. Another maintenance issue. Look at the posts here for buying a used CDI. I bought mine on eBay for almost $20k UNDER the sticker. It's a 2005 and was a year and a half old. Still smells, runs, and looks new. And what a savings on taxes and depreciation. And it's got the 50k mile MB warranty. It's something to consider. Save your hard earned military cash. These cars (CDI) are amazing. What a horse! Regards, David
