I received the attached quote from my local Mercedes dealership and I cannot seem to square their quote with the LH calculator or my hours of trying to do it manually. Is their quote missing some fees? Also, they told me the appearance and dent protection is mandatory. That’s BS, right? The calculator with zero down shows a lower payment then their payment with 3k down.
It is… But that amount includes $2.5K AMEX and $7.5K EV rebate. I miscalculated. @forbs is correct; it’s $2500 off MSRP.
Those incentives don’t come out of the dealer’s pockets, so you should look at pre-incentive discount to get a better sense of what kind of deal you’re being offered.
I think i’m following now- the “AutoNation Price” is inclusive of the 7.5k EV rebate. So total discounts are 2.5k amex, 7.5k ev rebate, and 2.5k markdown. Then they add back 1.4k in fluff. This is a bad deal!
