Falsapartenza85,
Yeah you guys do everything the MB way, you know posting all your cars on EBAY so anyone can buy it, hmmm what else oh yeah selling cars to all the Russians from brighton beach to export to Russia because MB corprate will never find out.... I Know MB manhatten is corporate owned. Also, all dealers sell to dealers in German for petes sake Cmon I'm sure youve sold to Stephan Huber... All I'm saying is I'm paying you guys money for a product that you are selling. When I am owner of that vehicle I can do whatever I want with it as long as it is legal between the two countries I'm exporting to. And if your such a do gooder give WestMinster MB in colorado a call and ask him where his allocated 320cdi's and some 350's go....
P.S. I love the whole talk of we only have 12% mark up now not 15%..... Please

12%!!! They keep telling me it's only 7% and there's no room for negotiations. Please don't tell me that the professional MB Sales Representatives are telling me a lie.

C'mon ya'll. They're just trying to get by and squeeze a living out of selling and servicing these automobiles...

How can you tell if a car dealer is lying? His lips are moving!

Try asking any salesperson or store owner what their mark-up is, and you'll get the same thing. Jewelry, furniture, appliances. It makes no difference. I don't necessarily think this is a bad thing, though.
