Mercedes-Benz of Edison

Walked in to buy a off-lease R350 car. The salesperson (Scott Clifton) told me that they've just got a fully-loaded R500 for $36k. Well, we discussed all the options and even though the manager didn't want to pay for the remaining 3 payments on the lease of my SLK55, Scott made it all happen in the paper work. I was suppose to pay $2k down and get the care off their hands. Well, on Tuesday I was told that the bank wanted another $5k down. Weird...I spoke with a firend of mine that is in auto industry and he told me that the dealership wanted probably more money out of me. It was the end of the month and they wanted probably to fulfill the quota. Or probably they wanted to recover the money they're puttin gin the R500 to make it look like new (brakes, tires, etc). Anyway, my wife and I really wanted the R500, but we settled on a ML320 BlueTEC. It has only the Premium 1 package, nad yet Scott asked us if we know how to input the seat settings in the memory. I expected him to know that the Premium 1 package doesn't include seat-memory. I have to say that he did try to find us a good color combo for a ML350 before we decided to go for the Diesel engine. This is my 3rd car from MB Ray Catena. Although Scott seems an okay guy, the whole experience wasn't as great as the previous two. But, I will still be doing business with them.
