    Gavin1911, I have gotten a decent price so far from Princeton MB (about 8k off).I am holding off till the end of November,what is your time frame?,buying two cars may mean larger discount.

    Hello, have you bought your E350 with this United certificate? How did it work? Was it treated as "cash" in your dealership? Thanks!

    I may need one within two weeks. I have got a couple offers from CA dealerships for 11K off but they do not have many 4matics. Do you think our local dealerships can match these discounts?
  • tgseavertgseaver Member Posts: 9
    I think 11k is a little out of reach for us (northeast) but you never know, 9k to 10k is more likely but I think that will happen towards the end of the year or during the winter sales event.To bad you can't hold off till then ( maybe get a cheap rental for a month). I need to order mine ( Nothing close to what I want in inventory or on a ship,want Driver Assistance Package ). I may pull the trigger sooner if we can get a good deal with more people buying at the same time from the same dealer.

    Does anyone checking this forum know what a "dealer net invoice" price is? For example, a 2014 E550 factory invoice on most websites like edmunds.com is $57,102. I have one dealer telling me the "dealer net invoice" is $57,802 and has sent me some documentation to support this. Is there some additional charge for the dealer (aside from the destination fee which is fairly standard)? Thanks for your thoughts....
  • kyfdxkyfdx Moderator Posts: 236,846
    Most dealers are part of a regional advertising group, and that's paid for with a charge on the invoice (generally $300-$600).... Not sure of specifics with Mercedes, but for example, BMW has a training/prep fee on their invoice that is around $200, as well...

    Hey I got an offer of $11,900 in Philly, almost 19% off. I will check it out tomorrow. They are kinda pushy saying this is a great price so it is only available for a day.
  • cheislercheisler Member Posts: 3
    hi tgseaver,

    could you please provide more details? is it for lease or purchase? if lease what is this translating into $/month and if you do not mind can you please let me know who is the dealer?

    thanks,
    chuck
  • tgseavertgseaver Member Posts: 9
    Wow!!! Good price, what dealer? Any car on lot? More info please.
  • hiworld1hiworld1 Member Posts: 1
    Which dealer in Philly offered that deal? would like to know.
    thanks.

    We're about to lease the E350 4Matic Sport and are getting (what I consider) incredibly aggressive quotes. Princeton, NJ and White Plans, NY have both come down approximately 10k on their MSRP (MSRP $63,000) --I would definitely suggest giving them a shot! I'm looking at about $500/month, 27 mos, 10k a year, no money down--do you guys think this deal will get better if I wait for the winter event? My husband thinks we should wait but I'm about to pull the trigger....thanks!
  • tgseavertgseaver Member Posts: 9
    Wow great prices!,could you share the name of the sale person from White Plains. If history means anything,November is always a better time to deal.

    You are about 15% off MSRP which is good but I think if you wait you can get 18% to 20% off, just like the folks on the west coast,at least that's my plan.
    Good luck.

    One thing for sure. You won't get anything near that at Rally motors on Long Island. Haven't tried elsewhere on Long Island.

  • gavin1911gavin1911 Member Posts: 9
    Nanuet NJ, Willington DE, and several PA dealers - they were all around 17-19% but some of them wanted an immediate deal so I did not take it. I also got my United Mileageplus certificate today which is as good as "cash" for another $3500 off already-agreed price. I am looking at 51-52K OTD for an 63K E350...pretty amazing.
  • benz79benz79 Member Posts: 5
    Is the 51-52k after the 3.5K from the certificate or before?
  • gavin1911gavin1911 Member Posts: 9
    it is after
  • tgseavertgseaver Member Posts: 9
    gaven1911, Good job.....19% is GREAT!!!! When you pull the trigger you have to post which dealer you went with.
    The Best I have gotten so far is $55,700 on a MSRP of $65,455 from White Plains, NY.

    Hi Paul. I am looking for a used e 350 blu tec. Is yours a 2011 0r 2012?
    If you srtill have it, what is the residual and the original msrp? eddie
  • benz79benz79 Member Posts: 5
    Oh I have no idea about prices in NJ, but in CA you can get the same price before the $3500 certificate from guys like DD in LB.
  • vermont11vermont11 Member Posts: 12
    I have the $3500 certificate I got from fleet program, But after speaking to DD of long beach. He said Mercedes do not allow certificate to stack, since Mercedes is already giving $3000 rebate for lease, I can only received $500 extra. Can somebody please clarify.
  • sawcarsawcar Member Posts: 6
    White plains was definitely the best deal out of the NJ and NY dealerships (I followed edmunds advice and emailed all the different dealerships to get the best deal on our lease). We got the e350 4Matic sports package with the keyless go package. $63,000 (MSRP), 27 months, $0 down and 10k miles. We paid exactly $2,100.56 out of pocket for the fees and first months payment. Our monthly payments are $530 and they include the taxes and maintenance. We are very happy with the deal we got and no other dealer would come close to this deal (we got everyone's final offer and everyone said they couldn't touch this deal). The dealer showed us all the papers and everything they'd be getting from Mercedes Benz and us--they made exactly $200 on the deal (which is what another dealer said and said it couldn't be done).

    For the most part, that is correct! However, it all depends on MBUSA and how their incentives are legally worded.

    USAA is considered a "fleet" discount. So is the Mercedes Benz Club of America $500 incentive. Both can be used together because they are both fleet discounts. However, you can't combine them with most dealer incentives from MBUSA.

    This month, Mercedes dealerships were given a limited quantity of $5000 certificates/coupons (based upon total sales) to use as they saw fit. Some dealers had 10, some 20, some 5. That is how the dealers were able to sell E350's well below invoice this past month.

    As an example, my 2014 sport sedan was delivered in April of this year. I ordered the car in January. I had a $1500 USAA certificate at the time (much lower than usual because the E350's were brand new. I also had a $1000 Mercedes Benz club certificate - both fleet discounts. They also had a $2000 MBUSA certificate (the dealer) which could not be combined - so I bought the car in April (MSRP $64850) for $57500, or $7350 below MSRP OR $2850 below invoice. I got that deal because I buy a new car from my dealer every year.

    Right now, I could buy that same car for $5000+ under invoice.

    These dealer certificates are not publicly known and therefore that is why there are such outstanding deals available out there.

    Next year, a new E400 gasoline model will be unveiled in the US as a 2015. 435+ hp, and is not a hybrid. Might be an interesting car to consider. This is a totally new engine.

    I hope I helped explain these incentives and certificates.

    BTW, once a dealer uses up their MBUSA certificates, they cannot get additional certificates. I believe these $5000 dealer certificates can be used on most Mercedes models. (E, CLS, CL, ML, GL, but not the new S or SL etc.)

    Thanks abacomike for posting your experience. I have asked various MB sales staff and they agree that most other incentives can not be combined. For Sept/Oct the factory incentives were $3000 for lease and $5000 for purchase. I can only guess that the Nov/Dec factory incentives would be comparable but that is only my guess.

    When dealing with the internet sales staff in SoCal, I have been given quotes that are phrased as "XX dollars below invoice, less any applicable factory incentives." Personally, after speaking directly to a handful of dealerships, I would say MD at Silver Star, DD in LB, and AK at Rusnak seem the most honest and aggressive in their pricing.

    Hope that helps. I have submitted specs for a factory build E250 that should be delivered in Dec. I hope the winter sales drive incentives are comparable to what they are currently or possibly better.

    I just pulled the trigger and purchased a 2014 E350 Sports Sedan. This forum has helped me a lot and I’d like to reciprocate and share my buying experience in the San Francisco Bay area.
    I did all my communications with the dealers via emails as this car is a surprise birthday gift for my wife and I don’t want to spoil the surprise. I contacted dealers in Walnut Creek, Fairfield, Fremont, San Jose, Oakland, San Francisco, San Rafael, and Autobahn in Belmont.

    The best offers are from Barry in San Rafael for $12000 off any car in his lot. I did not however buy from him because I wanted panorama sunroof and the one in his lot has too many installed options I don’t need or want.

    Autobahn in Belmont matched Barry’s offer and the vehicle I got:

    Diamond White with beige interior, Premium 1, Keyless Go Package, comfort box, split real seat, rear deck spoiler, Lane Assist, Parking Assist Package (Parktronic) and my favorite feature the Black panorama sunroof. MSRP is $63535 and I paid $51600 with free chrome door inserts and the dashboard visor thrown in. Ask for the Internet Manager Joseph and the process was very easy. I just love the Diamond White color and my wife is unbelievably happy!

    Good Luck Shopping!

    I signed the buyer's agreement today and my car is still on the boat but following dealerships have offered good deals in Tri-State area:

    1. Devon, PA: 20.5% off, refused to use United Certificate.

    2. West Chester, PA: 18.8% off, cheated on me last minute about United certificate; agreed to take it as an additional bonus cash but refused to do so when I got there.

    3. Princeton, NJ: If you push hard enough, they can do 16.5%. I have a friend who got $12,200 off a new CLS, which seems like a pretty good deal

    4. Nanuet, NY: They offered 19.5% off a particular vehicle for 10 minutes. I do not like the way they do business but it does not hurt to get a quote.

    5. Wilmington, DE: I got 16.5% in the first attempt but they do not have many selections in stock.

    6. Flemington, NJ: STAY AWAY. Its sales manager tried to trick me with an 2013 model.

    7. Ray Catena, NJ: Terrible sales persons - always took 2-3 days to respond to an email and unable to match anything.

    Everyone else from New York to Philadelphia is unable to do better than 15%. My suggestion is to start with dealership 1-5 and avoid 6-7.

    PS: United Certificate is a joke. No dealership takes it.

    You did great! Congrats, so I assume you went with Devon,do you have a name of the sale person.Thanks in advance.

    For all those out there who would like to squeeze into a 2014 E350 Cab, I got a discount of (without haggling) $9500 on a $65k car. I stumbled upon this when looking to price leftover 2013 Cabriolets. NOT worth pursuing 2013's for leasing given no support and low residual. 2014 Cab quoted MF = .00145, 36 month/15k mile, residual at 57%. Still working the deals but thought others here would like to know about the convertible option. I'm in SoCal Orange County. DD has been great at LB Mercedes. Also, Arnold at HOI in Buena Park is equally excellent and HOI often kicks everyone's butt in the final deal, at least in the past for my last 4 Mercedes.

    Has anyone else gotten MF's and residuals for 2014 Cabs for 36 mo/15k leases?
  • vertigoinlavertigoinla Member Posts: 9
    I just closed a deal for a lease of a 2014 E350 in So Cal. MSRP 63K that was lowered to 53K selling price. 1200 drive off (1st month and DMV fees) $684 per month. 27month lease 7.5 miles a year. Did I get a good deal??? Someone let me know lol. I think I did but I'd love to hear some feedback.

    Just picked it up on Friday

    Sport exterior
    Premium Package
    (Navi, backup camera, etc)
    Black/Black
    27 months
    27,000 miles
    $579/month
    $1,000 down includes first month payment and some other bs fees

    Very thrilled by the deal and more importantly by the vehicle. Been driving it all weekend, can't stop won't stop.

    I used a lease broker, didn't go to the dealership other than for the test drive and to see the vehicle in person.

    Hi all, I see the great deals in southern California, but I'm in Texas and traveling out of state to buy isn't really feasible. Can anyone here give me an idea of incentives/discounts/expectations for an E350 coupe in Texas? Thanks.
  • billyboy40billyboy40 Member Posts: 8
    Don't know about Houston, but here in D/FW last month the two dealership groups were discounting in the 6%-7% range. After getting advice here, I contacted several So.Cal dealerships. One, Dez @ L.B. responded quickly and seemed honest and straight forward. I ordered an e350 sport sedan build, no deposit required.

    MSRP: $65,845

    Sell Price: $54,004

    Dez says he does out of state deals all the time plus he has a friend that can transport the car for $1050 enclosed or $650 open carrier. Shipping from L.A. to DFW will be on my dime, but I won't have to travel there since the paperwork can completed via overnite mail. I will also have to pay the 6.5% Texas sales tax to register the car in Texas, but no Cal. tax.

    The only caveat being if the current $5k incentive ends before the car arrives in Dec. It's unlikely, but if it does end, I can just walk away from the deal according to Dez.

    Broker name is Joel Flohr at Executive Auto Group, his website is here https://www.facebook.com/eagmiami?filter=2

    Dealership is in Virginia, I have to check my car to see which one. I'm in FL, he had it sent down here.
  • pleasantvill1pleasantvill1 Member Posts: 2
    Thanks for the information! Enjoy the car. So far, I am being quoted around $560 a month for a similar equipped vehicle in the NY area, but with $2150 down, which includes first month, credit fee, etc. 27 month lease, 12K a year.
  • jjohntjjohnt Member Posts: 1
    Vinojon, The deal you got sounds great! what was the MSRP. Did you get the residual buyout or value at the end of the lease.? Mbtex, ? The reason for the questions is that I am actually looking for the exact vehicle in Miami, Fl. and just wanted to use some of your information. Your deal sounds wonderful and it is in line with what I would like to put together.
    jjohnt
  • vinojonvinojon Member Posts: 3
    Cap Cost is $51,175
    Residual is $38,552
    Yes to MBTex (probably should have gone for leather, if only just for the smell!)
    Did you give the lease broker a call?
  • kvincekkvincek Member Posts: 21

    I am not sure where to post this question. I do apologize if I am posting at the wrong forum. I am interested in buying a CPO 2012 E350 possibly with less than 30K miles. MBUSA.COM has the vehicles and most of them are sport version which I don't really mind. Anyway is this a good idea to get a USED E350 and what price range should I expect to pay?

  • aghoshaghosh Member Posts: 21
    I am also interested in answers as I am in the same boat. Any thoughts?
  • steverstever Guest Posts: 52,454
    We have TMV for certified cars, so that would be the number to meet or beat.

    Some dealers are better than others than checking off the items on the certification lists, so it pays to double-check (or at least spot check) their work. And if you want an MB certified car, you need to make sure it's factory certified and not some sort of dealer or third-party certification.
