hi I am in south Florida and dealer sent me this deal. What do you think. I did not tell him about putting money down. Thanks in advance

I would shoot for 25-30% discount, including rebates. Your offer is at least 8-9k off based on some of the recently signed deals. note that dealers currently have a $8k lease cash from MB so they are effectively giving you a $6k discount off MSRP - which for this car is a JOKE.

Thank you. Beautiful dog. Unfortunately, in my county every Mercedes dealer AutoNation and this one is in Miami privately owned claiming that their number one in the United States. I said based on the deal you’re giving me doesn’t make sense.
haha none of these dealers are gonna give you a great deal, gonna have to venture out west. did you try pines yet? i have had good luck with a few autonation dealers.
If you can find a 2024 EQS you like, then you can get a good fleet discount on top of this. Sam’s Club currently has $17K off for the 2024 EQS sedan.
Really. Please do tell… What’s the secret? I had no luck w Toyota of weston helping out my former professor. The snatched the sheet as we were reading it and was approved by their management.
I haven’t tried lines. Autonation jeep few years ago in pines said they don’t even negotiate the price. lol.
I did coconut creek, miami, and pompano beach.
I am actually looking for an SUV. I would settle for demo to get better deal. Seems like no luck in south Florida. 98 percent owned by auto nation.
i was negotiating with pines jeep last month, they came off like 8% on a 2025 4xe. toyota weston is a joke. i had to go to tampa to get a corolla cross, i paid $27.7k otd for an LE. down here they wante no less than $29k. i would reccomend using visor.vin to search inventory. and also try and get in contact direct with a sales manager
Sam’s club is only $500 . The rest is a dealer cash.
Yea it’s insane. Somewhat all deals are in central Florida and north. I got 4xe in Deland way cheaper than down here. Tried reaching dealer but he left and now a douche answered. lol. I guess it’s also on person you get. Down here everyone swears they can beat any deal in writing. But won’t move finger w out it. Maybe lazy or maybe they want to make at least 5k per car.
Rule of thumb. Never give Cash you never get it back. That amount won’t change your mt. payment. Where did they get 7 cents?
Also watch out for add on( junk fees) you don’t want or need.

Thank you so much. Yea I reached out to them about another car that’s been on lot for over 400 days and the guy keeps following up with me. So he send me text saying he will beat any deal and manager is going to shoot me an “amazing quote”. I said ok and picked this car. If this is amazing then I don’t know what’s bad. lol. He said all Mb deals are things of the past and there are no incentives. I was like ok thanks let’s go our separate ways at this point. lol
99/100 times you should never buy a car in south Florida. Test drive them there and buy from the northeast. Plenty of brokers here advertising these deals if you don’t want to do the work.

Check out the Marketplace, see what others have been paying and then send them an offer for a yes or no and move on. As mentioned above, if you don’t have the required time to do this, I would hook up with a broker. I recently worked with Ash @AutoActionSales on a MB deal and he was awesome to deal with.
What’s fleet then? Wouldn’t fleet apply on top of whatever discounts are being offered? My employer’s fleet discount is only $8,500, which is why I thought Sam’s Club was better at $17K. But I could be misunderstanding this, so I’m open to being corrected if I’m wrong.
Avoid every dealer in SFL especially AutoNation. Go with a broker of maybe central FL or out of state is your best best.

Let’s say this way:
IF YOU WOULD NOT HAVE SAM’S CLUB MEMBERSHIP THE DEALER CASH IS $500 LESS.
EVERY CAR HAS DIFFERENT DEALER CASH BUT THE SAME AFFILIATE REBATE OF $500
Florida doc fee is insane.
I have deals for 799 doc fees. Florida just plays a lot more games then just the doc fee
