R60 Negotiating Price
#26
Just depends on supply and demand. Early on the dealers will hold firm because there's always customers that have to be the first to have the latest and greatest, and are willing to pay for the privilege...once they become easier to obtain no reason to think that there will not be discounts. When Mercedes started to offer the SLK55 here in the U.S. in 2005, I had to wait 6 months for mine, and there were no discounts (and some dealers were demanding a premium over MSRP). A year later it was not difficult to get a signficant discount.

Our local dealer is part of the Penske group and they move a ton of cars and are extremely flexible on price. (I've also have bought BMWs from them)

+1 on Sharks' quote. Regional demand, location/market are all factors on price. Recently had a friend in Seattle take a copy of my build sheet to a Seattle dealer and they were $6k higher. The only difference was color.

Wow, $6k higher? You said recently, but wouldn't they be trying/willing to cut deals since 2013s are already starting to roll in?
