congrats...

what was MSRP?

 

$104,360.00 is MSRP

 

$10K off sticker on a 2010 sounds like a great deal to me. I got $20K off MSRP on a 2009 a few months ago, and at the time they wouldn't go more than $5K off sticker on a 2010 in stock that I really wanted.

 

Is this car on the lot ?
No full leather, sport chrono, pdk, adaptive or sport seats ?

10K off ? Well you did fair on price . It's hard for me to swallow it because my 09 C2S had the same MSRP and I paid 84K . Now it's true that I got one of those deals back when I felt it was a once in na lifetime thing to see 20 percent off and I know that times have changed with the 2010 pricing and inventory --BUT I do speculate that if you waited six months you woild not have the car now but your chances to get another 10K off increase . Then you can get that same car with full leather, sport chrono, and more options for that same 94K .

 

BTW -- If you do end up getting it .. Congrats !!! The C4S looks great in red . I am just wrestling with price and options on my own personal level and since you did ask for an opinion I wanted to be up front with mine.

 

Car is on lot and it sees like a few of the dealers around have the same configuration, so I would assume these were sent to most dealers as model introduction cars. I guess I could hold out for a while but also the 2.9% financing is very low I think. I guess there is never a perfect deal unless someone gives you one.

 

Will this be your daily driver car?

 

I do have another car, but if I can drive this every day to work and back I certainly will. I am comming out of a 08 Mercedes CLK-550 convert. Funny I dont even have it yet and Im already in the classified area

 

Then don't hold out but do try and negotiate it down more . If the car is in fact some type of 2010 launch car where production of that specific car is plentiful and you can show that then its leverage for you . The more identical cars they make . the harder it is to sell .. both as new or used. People trying to sell an 09 green launch car or metort C4S face huge competition with so many identical cars.

If you love the car .. tell them 2K more and they have a deal today and they will lock a unit sale early in the month . Have your checkbook in your hand and be ready to walk. They will sell you the car or maybe call you back in an hour.

Just FYI --end of the month is usually the best time to negotiate . You missed that by 6 days but that's ok . They still are in business to sell cars .

 

I looked at three Florida dealerships to see if they have the same Guards red car and none had it listed in inventory . I was curious to see if the car was that popular. I did BTW see an awesome white/sea blue C4S though , a bunch of Gt3's, and enough great cars to make me realize how bad it is to even look.

 

You are going to like this car !!! I think they are going to sell it too you but you just have a few more pricing screws to tighten. Congrats in advance.

 

Brian, Larry (yrralis1) is the resident pricing guru. He knows what he is talking about.

My take is that you should try to negotiate a little more if possible. If unsuccessful, I wouldn't let $2K keep me from my dream car.

Welcome to the family (soon)!

 

I am certainly not under duress to do this, being in CT there is snow on ground and I have found that this time of year is good to work on warm weather cars. I will let both dealers I am working with stew a bit more, and see what that brings. The dealer will be making about $1k over invoice plus hold back ect. Im not sure dealers let brand new models go out at invoice or not. The pricing is the worst part of the new car experience.

 

congrats. You got the fastest color. james
