I would like to negotiate the best possible deal on this vehicle:
Can I get some advice on what I should offer?
Thanks!
There is fortunately ample information here on MB EQS’s. Search EQS and take some time to read through what others have offered and prices other members have paid here. It may take you some time to sift through the mess but it will save you thousands. Feel free to circle back with more specific questions.

Thank you! I have been reading as much as I can, but I’m getting a little lost with the fact that some of the deals were either on the west or east coast, and many of the ‘23 EQS450 deals were last year, so just thought I would see if there were any quick tips based on experience others had.
Not trying to take a shortcut…just supplementing information that I’m researching on this site at the same time I hopefully get some good advice here.
In terms of specific questions:
- What discount off of MSRP should I be targeting?
- What is the MF rate I should expect?
- What all incentives are active for this vehicle that are also stackable?
This is assuming a preference of 24/10K, but I’m open to other time frames if the deal is significantly better.
Thank you!
You’re a bit late to the party, EQS deals was great in March, not so in April. For MF & RV, donate to be super supporter & get those information in ratefindr or ask them in edmunds. Current incentive is 7500 ev credit + 11k Amex fleet. A decent deal for EQS now is around $0 DAS $700 monthly. Use the LH calc to calculate how much dealer discount you should aim for. Try to check what dealer is offering right now in marketplace.

Have you looked at Signed deals? And are you in Chicago?
My vague impression is that this is pretty bad.
STAY AWAY. On a serious note, search the term EQS and you will see the pricing that others have gotten.
I don’t know if we need to be that harsh. Let’s just point them to the pertinent areas of the forum and, if they choose to ignore that and light their $ on fire, well, then, it’s a free country and all that…

Max - Check your ego at the door, please. I’m very active on this forum and did a significant amount of research on this forum before posting my question gathering feedback. The issue in doing the research is I saw very little that happened in May, in Illinois, on a EQS 450 SUV. I know that game has changed quite a bit with different incentives, so I’m trying to gather the most relevant/up-to-date information.
Thank you for your non-helpful, useless comment. I’m not sure how you earned the Trusted Hackr title, but you certainly didn’t earn it with my interaction here today.
I’m two hours south of Chicago, but the dealership is in the “Chicagoland Area”. It also seemed bad to me, but I wanted to confirm/deny that based on the realities of the incentives changing quite a bit in May. I know this car was once “hot”, but not sure if it’s as hot now based on other posts that I’m seeing on the site.
OP wants to hack a deal but don’t want to donate $15 to get MF and RV lol
If you’d read through all posts about EQS you should be equipped with enough knowledge to not asking those questions.
Like mentioned above, get yourself a super supporter tag, use the ratefindr and calculator and find a monthly payment you’re comfortable with.
Iirc, 2023 eqs450 suv lost amex fleet, check around
Then go out of Illinois. You have the whole country at your disposal.
The $10k you’d probably save will pay for an awful lot of shipping.
