Sedans Mercedes-Benz E-Class Mercedes-Benz E-Class: Lease Questions

 I recently received a quote from a MB dealer, and while he claimed that their price was "$200 over invoice" the math didn't add up. The invoice that he provided showed a markup over invoice of $1050. When I questioned him, he said, "The pricing you received is $200 over our invoice. When you look up the invoice via Edmunds or another website they do not show the IRG fee of $600 and our Dealer pack fee of $250." Is he being honest here, or just padding their profit margin?

Replying to: mjr2u (Nov 03, 2009 12:36 pm) Dealer Pack Fee? Maybe it is on his invoice... not sure what that is.. but, it sounds like something the dealer might get back, in the end... I'm all for squeezing every dollar out of a deal... But, overall, I'd say this dealer is being pretty straight with you.. regards, kyfdx

Replying to: kyfdx (Nov 03, 2009 12:54 pm)  Thanks kyfdx! Good to know. Yes, it seems that this particular dealer is being very forthcoming. (Walter's MB in Riverside, CA). Another dealer told me that on the E350, the parktronic was NOT available as a factory-installed option, only dealer-installed. Only came from the factory on the E550 (which is totally wrong). Walter's clarified that it IS avaiable as a stand-alone, factory-installed option, and they quoted me $59,763 for an E350, P2, Leather, Driver Assist, Parktronic, Folding Rear Seats, Dynamic Driver Seat, MSRP $63,065. Beat the other dealer by $737. What's your opinion of that deal?
