Hi, I just leased a C350 Sport with multi-media and AMG wheel upgrade in Houston, TX on May 17th. The finance mgr. said that the money factor was .00290 on the C350 this month ( I thought it was .00255 or .00275) and that money factors are different for each city or state, is this true? She said the new money factors came out 2 weeks ago. Could you please tell me if I got a good deal? (I did a 51 month lease to keep my payments down) Here are the numbers for the deal. Also, if it wasn't a good deal, can I go back to the dealer and talk with the General Manager if the finance person lied about the money factor? Thanks for your help! C350 Sport - Black/Black, Multimedia and AMG Wheel Upgrade MSRP $41,725 Sell Price $39221 Acquistion Fee $1095 Money Factor .00290 Term 51 months/12K miles per year Amount Paid at Lease Signing $1000 ( 1st month pymt and fees) Monthly Pymt $622.73

Replying to: loveandlight (May 22, 2008 12:21 pm) Acquisition fee was marked up $300 (dealer profit). .00290 appears correct for a 51 mo term. You have to remember that rates typically rise the further you extend the term. For example, a 24 mo. mf is .00230, as opposed to a 60 mo mf of .00330 on this vehicle. Unfortunately, there is no lease support on this particular trim level and therefore, other than a few extra hundred dollars they made from the acquisition fee, they gave you pretty much a straight-up deal with the numbers they had to work with. No reason to go back to the dealership to make a fuss - the payment fits your budget and it's an awesome car - now enjoy the next 51 months in your new Benz. |

Hi, I am planning to buy a black, C300 sport sedan, 4 MATIC with P1 options. Anyone got this car recently? If so, can you let me know how much you got it for? (the out-the-door price) I would like to know whether the price my dealer is quoting is right. I live in Boston area. It would great if you can let me know where you got, so it will be easier for me to calculate the tax difference too. Thanks. |

I have quoted for a steel gray metallic C350 2008 base model for $34,247, before taxes and fees, over the phone. How much should I negotiate down at the dealer? Thanks for all your input.

Replying to: kboxd (Jun 11, 2008 6:16 pm) The 2009 will be at your dealers next month....with power tilt/extend steering column and perhaps wood grain interior. Note: I would not buy a new C without the multimedia package which is state of the art as far as I've seen.

Does anyone here judge a deal by 'cost per mile'? For instance if I were to lease a C300 for 27months at 10,000miles per year, I would be essentially paying close to $15,000 for 22,500miles which comes to $0.67 per mile. Not including gasoline of course. Is this acceptable? I can appreciate the prestige and luxuries of a fine German vehicle, but I'd like to think I'm practical also. |
