Negotiation Tips for the Mercedes-Benz GLC

1

Mercedes has the highest dealer margin of any luxury brand — 8-9% between MSRP and invoice. Always negotiate hard.

2

MB dealers stack add-ons aggressively. Expect $2,000-$5,000 in appearance packages and protection products.

3

Ask about Mercedes-Benz Financial Services loyalty and conquest incentives. They run monthly programs.

4

The GLC 300 is the highest-volume Mercedes — dealers have inventory and will deal.
