Worth it for the 2011?

MakoFury · 11-02-2010, 09:59 PM

I'm finding it hard to find a deal on a 2010 with this combo, touring/sport/nav/6mt. All dealers seem to be offering $500 behind invoice, even sitting and negotiating the best im getting is $40.9k otd. This one dealer is giving me a take it or leave it price for $40.5k. The OTD fees are generally 10-11% where I live in CA.

Just me, YMMV, but no way I'd pay that price this late in the year. In 90 days it will be worth thousands less. At that price, I'd wait on a 2011, or see how bad they want to move them (the 2010s) in January.

You can get a 2011 for that.......Why pay that for a 2010 ?

Hey, it feels like you reaalllyyy want that car, I know that feeling, but you gotta gamble a bit and wait.. Because the price they're asking for is a bit high for the 2010.. I would wait until the price drops on it and then buy it.. don't even bother looking at the 2011 imo.. as like you saod you can install a camera for $300 so that's a really good deal....

But if I were in your shoes, I would wait.. Go back and forth with the dealership(s), give feeding them the string then pull it..

I paid $37.5K OTD for my 2010 MB + sport + touring + nav 6sp. Mine has the rare gray interior. And sometimes I think I paid too much. You can to better than $40k for sure. Get price quotes from different dealers through the internet.

MakoFury · 11-03-2010, 03:39 PM

Yeah you're right, I really want the car but can't let my patience get the better of me. I emailed that dealer and told them I'd pass on the car at the $40.5k OTD price.

I don't see how I could get $37.5k otd, isn't that like $3000 below invoice?

ClemsonWill · 11-03-2010, 03:56 PM

They told me invoice was $38K and the sticker on mine was $42K. But you have to remember the dealerships get the hold backs, dealer credits, and financing bonus. They can still make good money even if they sell for less than invoice. My dealership split the hold back and dealer credit which gave me the $37.5K price OTD.

Well it looks like some dealerships scattered across CA have gotten 2011's. I'm talking maybe 4 total in the one's i looked within 100 miles of the Bay Area and LA. One in Fairfield supposedly has a Gun Metallic which I'm asking them to send pics of.

Other dealers I've spoken to said they should get their first few in the next 2-3 weeks....

Don't forget to share those pics!

Confirmed the 2011s in CA.

The actual image used is still the old color but they do claim to have a 2011 Gun Metallic.

Well looks like I'll be getting a 2011 Gun Metallic Touring/Sport/Nav/6MT soon, the dealer secured it, put down my deposit, paying invoice for it...hopefully have it end of week or next week! Good thing I waited..this isn't much more than a 2010 + I get a stock back up camera!
