Factory to Dealer Incentives

[Scott in Cincy]

Hi gang,
I'm negotiating to get a 2008 4.8i for my wifey, we'd be trading in her 4.8is. Does anyone know if there are any factory to dealer incentives out there that the dealers are hiding these days?

I'm looking at the MB 550, the X, and a Cayenne S. She likes them all pretty much the same, so it comes down to getting a good deal, really. I'm partial to the X, but MB's got a strong offer out there too.

Thanks in advance,
Scott

There is a premium package incentive through the month of June.

If you are leasing definitely do MSD (Multiple Security Deposits) instead of down payments for cap reduction. Not sure if Porsche or MB does it. Some say they do too (and some BMW CA's won't know about it perhaps because they are new).

Do you know what that entails?

I'm thinking of leasing this time as well.

For buying help. I found this site very helpful. That is where I found out about the premium package incentive for the X5 (essentially if the dealer is willing to pass the credit to you. You can get the premium package for free).

For MSD, read about it on a sticky. But in a nutshell, it lowers your money factor (thus monthly payment) and at the end you get all that money back.
