    Been proposed a deal on a 02 E320 MB Certified pre-owed with 47K miles. The vehicle was placed into service June of 02 so its got a month left on the original warranty. The options are as follows. Purchase the vehicle uncertified for $20,300 or certified for $21,500 with the 12 mo 100K warranty, another option is to add the 2 yr CPO warranty for a total of 3 yr 100K miles but the price jumps to $23,595. Financing is at 4.9 for 60 mo through MB financial. Your thoughts and opinion on this deal would be helpful

    Bought a new 2006 CDI with metallic paint and premium package for $49.6K. Buying the inline diesel was a factor.

    I am considering buying an extended warranty for my 2002 E320. I am concerned about buying from 3rd party companies. If anyone got one, please let me know what's your experience? Is extentded warranty the same as MB's manufacture warranty? Thanks

    I have a deal on an 06 MB E350 with premium package and only 600 miles for about $41500. I'm in NJ the car's in FL. I would have to pay for transport, taxes and other costs so realistically I'm looking at 44,500.... The hitch is that this was a manufacturer buy back with a transmission problem - which is now repaired... we're talking a 'lemon' I guess ....and I gotta shell out 40k or so from the bank account because there's no attractive financing offers right now through the dealer (it's not MB)

    The question is - I intend to keep it for 5-6 years at least... Will this lemon issue really affect me as a private seller 6 years from now or should I jump on this deal ...

    In comparison, I see 06 E350 with about 10k miles (still 'new' really...) for a little more... about 43500 but hoping to haggle that down .... I would think this would cross the 46k mark with fees and stuff ... But this would qualify for 2.9% financing right now (the other one does not ebcause it's not an MB dealer) ... This car is in NJ itself so that saves me transportation costs and gives me in person haggling/test drivability...(is that a word lol)...

    I'm thinking I have no clue which to go for ...

    I'm also thinking the one that can be financed can also likely be leased ... if I want to take things easy on my wallet for now ... with the intent to purchase the car at the end of the lease .... What money factor and residual should i look for? I was told .0023 and 70% for 27 months on brand new cars ...

    The other question is ... does the car in NJ have the Nav (premium package or not) ...the online ad says yes but the guy on the phone sounded confused as all hell so that's not helping me! ...

    PLEASE HELP ... (I think when I put it on paper the second one is more logical hahaha but the gut was leaning towards the first one initially)... :confuse:

    you should be getting great deal on 06 e350 since the 07's are just about here.

    shoot for 15% or more off msrp, anyting less isn't a good deal. wagon should be offering more discounts.

    work with the fleet manager to get the best deal, you can usually get in touch with the fleet manager by asking for quote online.

    looking to buy E350 Matic with Premium package. Where or what is the best price near Western NY (Rochester or Buffalo) area? I'm willing to drive 300-500 miles to save a bundle. Thanks.

    New '06 cdi with metallic paint, 6cd, sunroof - msrp 54,775, purchase price $46,775 with 1.9% financing for 3 yrs. Good deal?
  • benzodieselbenzodiesel Member Posts: 10
    How many miles are too many on a new car? Buying a new cdi with 80 miles on it. Didn't think about it either way...should that concern me?
  • ctccobractccobra Member Posts: 4
    Sounds pretty good to me. I just picked up a Pewter 06' e320 CDI w 526 Premium Pkg, Sirius for $47,500 plus a $398 delivery handling fee. I think that is a junk fee. I also opted for the 1 year/100k Mercedes extended warranty for $1900. I love the car.
  • benzodieselbenzodiesel Member Posts: 10
    Thanks for feedback. Sounds like we got about the same deal...about 8k off msrp...
  • benzodieselbenzodiesel Member Posts: 10
    By the way, I haven't picked up car yet and I'm trying to get info about the auxiliary plug in that's allegedly in the glovebox and to which I can supposedly connect my iPod. Do you know anything about that?

    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 + TT&L. 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

    You can lease the same equiped 2006 E320 CDI for 27mos. for a one total payment of $19689 all inclusive (includes 8% local tax but does not include the second year's license). I would go for that and when the lease is up, go for a 2008 Bluetec diesel.

    I just leased a 27 month new E350 from Downtown LA dealer with the following data:

    E350 sports package, 15K/year mileage allowance, premium 1 package, full leather option, metallic paint, MSRP about 56K, deal as follows:

    $3800 cash down included 1st payment
    $600 / per month for 26 months.
    $0.25 for extra mileage.

    Residual about 39K

    I don't know if this was a good deal, any guesses??? They told me just the 15K per year (instead of 10K per year) added about $60 per month, seems expensive...

    Thanks

    I want to buy a 2006 e350S Wagon and live in West LA. As the 2007's are coming out this month, what do you think I should offer. As your post was in June, I amy be able to get 15K off the MSRP if I pay in cash. Thoughts?

    More importantly, have you had any problems with your vehicle. Various family members have purchased/leased a Mercedes over the past 4 years and have many electrical problems with various models. I am hesitant to invest in a Mercedes as the quality seems to have gone down since GM bought them out. We had a diesel Mercedes when I was growing up and it never had anything wrong with it - lasted 15 years!!! Too bad they are not made like they used to be. Please let me know your thoughts.
    Thank you

    I had a 2003 E320 and now a 2007 E350 with no problems (thus far anyway with the 2007).

    ?GM never bought them out.
  • petrie3petrie3 Member Posts: 47
    And it seemed like both companies' quality declined after the merger. Hopefully on the upswing now.
  • tuffy72tuffy72 Member Posts: 12
    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-arranged 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 comming 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 comming out can I get it cheaper?, I am willing to travel :confuse
  • carnaughtcarnaught Member Posts: 3,497
    First of all, it's a great car. I'm not so sure that the price break offered to you wouldn't or couldn't be available to you after the end of the month. You may want to pursue that. I heard that the '07 Bluetec diesel won't be available till next Spring (?)

    Thanks for your service to our country and good luck.
  • tuffy72tuffy72 Member Posts: 12
    It seems everyone is satisfied by the forums and the reports. I'm sold, just waiting for the perfect one or to get home. Has to have all lthr, xenon, wood lthr steering wheel, keyless go. I love my gadgets. I have to close the deal by the 15th of November for the great rate. I'll keep looking. Do you know if you can get heated seats with the panoramic sunroof and the 6disc changer? At MBUSA seems to conflict? :confuse:

    Thanks for caring. We all serve proudly and greatfully for people like you.

    tuffy: I'm not sure about how most of the (CDI) cars coming in the the dealers are equiped. I'm sure that you could order exactly what you want, but it would no doubt be an '07, plus I'm sure that you'd like the car in your grasp when you get back to the States. Was there a specific car with all the options on it that you wanted that you were pricing with the dealer? If there is, you sound like you'll be back before Nov. 15th to complete the deal. Keep in mind the immediate depreciation on an '06 when the '07's come out, but may be not as much in the case of a diesel.

    You'll love the car when your back in the States. Again, thanks for all you do.
  • merc1merc1 Member Posts: 6,081
    A little off topic, but I haven't seen you post elsewhere lately, but what lead you back to an E-Class?

    What of the M35 you had?

  • nlkleinbergnlkleinberg Member Posts: 17
    I am in the process of ordering a new E-Class (color/options simply don't exist on the ground) and have a question.

    Up to now I've bought BMW and when ordering the dealer gave me a production#, which I wrote on the check. This was in an effort to try and stop the dealer from telling me he had an allocation and either not having it or selling the slot or car out from under me. Worked like a charm.

    What is the procedure with MB? Do those of you who ordered your cars and who might have a reason (either because of the dealership or exact car) to suspect you might be yanked around require some sort of PO or Production# at the time of sale or shortly thereafter? How can I do my best to insure that the order has actually been submitted by the dealer and hasn't been given to someone else?

    I know I can't insure against everything and am certain there are SOME decent dealers around (my old BMW guy was great but I don't like what BMW is currently offering) but I want to do what I can to get the car on time.

    Thanks in advance for any info.

  • tuffy72tuffy72 Member Posts: 12
    There wasn't any specific car they had. The guy basically said he could put in one before I left, but I don't think it would have the options that I said were mandatory. I have not been to the dealership yet. My bank has a buying program also, so I thought I would wait until I got back to see what they had in stock at the dealership.The buyer program says to you have to be within 3 days of buying. Should I start conversing with the dealership now to ensure they can meet my needs in November?
    Thanks

    Merc, just wanted to get back into the Mercedes family; no problems with the M35, though. I am more in lurk than post mode on these boards.

    BTW, congrats to you for joining your namesake family!

    Called a couple of dealers in and out of the area. No one has a 06 car with keyless go and even new 06s for that matter are not easy to find. Except a dealer that is asking $57 for a used with 12000 on it 1900 miles away. :cry: I looked into the 07 but for what I want it is out of my price range plus the wait. I have changed what I want many times just to try and find it cheaper, not really working out. Still looking
  • carnaughtcarnaught Member Posts: 3,497
    Would you consider leasing? If so, I'll let you know if I see any good ones. They just had a great 27 mo. lease on an '06 320 CDI but I don't see it anymore.
  • tuffy72tuffy72 Member Posts: 12
    Not interested in leasing. If you see any please let me know. I'm seriously thinking about the european buying program. I'll be in Germany on the second. I would even consider going back out because it will save me $4400 in the long run. Still waiting on the call back back on Monday. I'll keep you posted.

    Wood Wheel

    Car List out for $54,955.00

    Any thoughts on what I should be lookin to spend on a 27 Month 10k lease would be appreciated.
  • tuffy72tuffy72 Member Posts: 12
    Hello all. I finally made my up my mind. I am gonna purchase the 07 320 Bluetec via EDP. I placed my order a week ago. I figured with $4k savings minus the $700 plane tickets I saved enough to get everything I wanted plus cheaper than an 06 used. I've looked and looked, but I could not find an 06' with everything I wanted. The only drawback was the car will be ready on the 14th of Dec. Then I am looking at 6-8 weeks for the car to come from Germany. It will have the P2 package which includes keyless go, xenon, panaramic sunroof,GPS,sat radio, bluetooth
  • carnaughtcarnaught Member Posts: 3,497
    Your car sounds excellent, awesome. What color (silver)?

    Let us know how you like it.
  • tuffy72tuffy72 Member Posts: 12
    It's gonna be black with black interior. The only thing that pisses me off is that I'm paying 53k for a car and it doesn't come with leather seats! Anyone know why? :mad:
  • carnaughtcarnaught Member Posts: 3,497

    They're probably Mercedes Tex vinyl seats and leather is an extra cost option. The tex looks good and wears well and no one will really know except for a lack of that aromatic leather smell.

    How much above Invoice should I expect to pay for a 2007 E350 cash deal, no lease.

    Thanks
  • carnaughtcarnaught Member Posts: 3,497

    I'm not sure how much above invoice, but figure the range of $1500-3000 off msrp.

    Incidently a prepaid lease for 27 mos. on a fully equiped one is going for $17800, a smokin' deal IMHO.

    i saw this

    My 07' Deal

    I got a great deal on an 07' E350.

  • sklarinsklarin Member Posts: 4
    I just leased a new 07 E350...

    Black with Black Leather option, Premium 1, Sports package.

    MSRP on the car is about $55,300.00

    27 months, 15,000 miles per year...

    Total drive off... $3,500.00

    Monthly Payment... $545.34 plus 8.25% tax... $590.33.

    I love the car and the deal!

    Hello All,

    I was quoted a price of $45,550 for a new 07 E350 Sedan witha sticker of $52,025. The only options are the iridium silver and the no cost sport package. Is this a great deal (seems like it)?? Also, what is the best rate to expect on a 60 mo. finance with perfect credit? Thanks!

    mrp,

    Sounds good but, what state are you in? Prices vary by region
  • mrpmrp Member Posts: 10
    geoc,

    I live in Nevada. The dealer here (there is only one in town) is high. The good quotes I am getting are from Southern California. I figure it is worth a 250 mile drive (less than 4 hours) to save $3k.

    I have a line on a 2003 E-320 with 16,000 miles. Given this low mileage, is $28K a good price to buy?
