I'm assuming it isn't like Ford's Privilege Club which I am quite familiar with, but is it 5%? 10%? Some other number?It'll be a few years before I can afford a Merc but if I won tatts tomorrow I'd trade my grandpa-spec Ford turbo for a C63 in a cocaine heartbeat!

The discount and other fringe benefits are legit and worthwile as stated. In some cases between 10-15%Hopefully this helps..
