congratulations for this great deal.
I'm wondering how did you pay for it? You paid cash or you finance.
If you did finance, what is the APR rate you got.
thanks
Just had a verbal from a dealer locking in a Black GLK350 4Matic for $35,000 + LTTT. Spec'ed out as follows:
GLK350W4 $36,600
040 Black
101 Black
MB-Tex
R26 19\" 10-spoke alloy wheel (235/50)
057 iPod Integration Kit $375
739 Aluminum Trim
873 Heated Front Seats $740
917 PZEV-Emission,
Is this a good deal?
Thanks in advance!
I am trying to find a good deal on GLK 350 in Dallas/Fort Worth area. If anyone finds a good deal like 10% off of MRSP, please advise.
Thanks!
I'm also considering buying sun roof / navigation / heated seats / instead of package to keep the cost lower.. Any thoughts?

I've just gotten a price on this pre-owned 2010 GLK from Mercedes-Benz Manhattan. Until this morning, it was a loaner car for 6 months, and I will be the first registered owner of the car.
Black MB Tex with Black Exterior, appearance package, Premium 1 Package
Non-Multimedia Package Navigation
11,992 miles
$31,250 plus NJ tax (where I'm registering) and fees
monthly payment $592 and change with ZERO down
good deal?
2011 models will have better residuals, so they may lease better, than 2010, but if you're trying to purchase/finance I think you can get better deal on the remaining 2010, because you can take advantage of special APR.
The car needs to be serviced only once a year. Is service for 5 years/ 50k miles or 4years/50k miles?
Secondly, I am not experienced at leasing. I am assuming I can negotiate an at or below invoice deal and then turn around and lease. Thanks for the input.
Thanks for the assist. I live in Raleigh NC. I realize it is a good idea to negotiate the price down but I am trying to avoid the trap of getting the price down to where I want it and then having them come back with "the current summer lease special is X" which may call for a different selling price.
More importantly I am trying to get a good idea of what the negotiated selling price should be for hte GLK350 I described. I always that at or around invoice should be a decent deal. However, I am reading other posts where people or getting 10-12% below MSRP which is $2-3K below invoice. Is the market for the GLK350 really that low and can I expect that or is invoice more realistic. Thanks.
Prices are regionally different. National wide, automaker increase their price about 3-5%. You can get pretty close to your local market price using web site like Edmunds' TMV. This is a perfect time to get good price 2010 GLK, since MB releases 2011 GLK's around 07/14. However, your selection for 2010 GLK's is limited by now. To get 2010 GLK with customer's spec may be a problem. When you shop take in account that new 2011 GLK's have a price increase of about $900US. You would be able to get a loaded 2010GLK at the same price as a mid range 2011GLK at this time. Get a fully loaded vehicle, you won't regret what you miss out years from now.
MB is one of the easier for lease returns. The only way they can "get" you is if you damaged the car or went over on miles. In which case you kind of "got" yourself.
What are the diffs between 2011 and 2010?
I am finding no diffs on the MBUSA site between those two.
do you mind giving the options and breakup?
I am shopping for 2011GLK in chicago suburbs.

Has anyone tried to find 2011 GLK - or place an "order with $1,000 down" for a new GLK and without a Premium Package stuff..... ?
For example: While exterior, black MB-tex interior ..... that's all.
Thanks.
Has anyone traded C-300 for a GLK and found GLK to be even a better car?
We were considering trading our 3-year-old C-300 for GLK because we think that GLK is a safer car than C-300. You sit higher in case of a side colision. The GLK has 11 airbags? We only counted 4 in our C-300. Is the roll-over a concern/problem for SUVs since their center of gravity is a few inches higher?
While our car was in service (under the warranty) they gave us GLK loaner and we were very impressed with the ride ..... very quiet and when we went over the railroad tracks, it just went quietly over .... perhaps 19" wheels helped.
Thanks.
I am still waiting for a response from anyone who traded C300 for GLK and feels safer in GLK.
Thanks again.
Pre-paid mantanance is a very good thing, but not for $769..., because during 3 years - you only need 3 maintanances, which will total almost the same $769 over the period of 3 years - if you service it at the MB Dealership. Why pay up front?
However, it make sense in the lease, because you can residualize Pre-paid maint. in the lease, so you will only pay part of it. This will save you money.

Please, when you find a good dealership that wants to move inventory, put the name out.
MSRP 38175 with roof, aluminum trim
Cap 35563
lease rate .00215 & 56% residual
$4170 drive off with cap cost reduction
39 X $430 plus tax
I didn't need or want all the fancy electronics so I was thrilled to get this model for that payment. Excellent buying experience from Fletcher Jones in Newport Beach.
They did try to sell me their service and add-on packages, everything from wax, to fabric protect, service contract, tire warranty, lojack, etc. Declined them all, just the car please.
They did try initially to bump my lease rate but when I paused they dropped back to their 'buy rate' to make the deal. Price through AAA was $500 under invoice.
Very happy new MBZ owner.
I didn't want all the options, if you do and it's the right color then go for it. 4-matic is for snow country.
JMHO of course.
Thanks for the fast reply, appreciate it!
Then we decided to spend the holidays on the beach in SoCal. On the one rainy day, we saw MB of Southbay, who had a the following GLK, arctic white, almond/black, MM, parktronic, heated front seats, Sirrius for $36,483 (that's $4,897 off MRSP). So, we had a great vacation and drove back with the car we wanted. Turns out the heated front seats are the feature my wife loves the most. We couldn't be any happier wit the car so far.
The heated seats are the only thing I miss from my old truck - a 2003 Chevy Duramax. I did find aftermarket seat heaters though for about $200. I would have to remove the seat covers to install them, and wire them to the dash switches. I can see why they charge what they do for the factory install. Not sure I need them now, it's never very cold here in so-Cal.
I've had mine a month, has 1300 miles, and we are just loving it. Mileage average is 19 overall, 24 on the hiway and 18 around town. Mostly use the sport mode, starting is 2nd gear feels just a little lethargic.
