Replying to: manly (Sep 19, 2007 1:10 pm) Car I got had the following: P2 P90 DVD navigation Heated Front Seats Ipod Integration Kit Wood Steering Wheel Keyless Go MB Phone My Car had an MSRP of $65k with a selling price of $57k. Those extra 4k you put down over me is like paying an extra $150 per month over 27 months. So I ended up getting a much more loaded car for a lot less.

Replying to: rontide (Jul 08, 2005 11:30 am) I do have malfunction lights (check lamps) that come on every once and a while for no reason but, other than that, I love that car and it's a sexy looking car. I call my car the big booty benz. |

Replying to: ocautoseeker (Jan 28, 2008 1:52 pm) I told them I'm not quite in the 3 months yet and even if I was, I am not looking to have them add payments into the lease. Dealer assured me this wasn't a gimmick and that MB would allow me out early. Anyone else hear this?

Replying to: manly (Sep 19, 2007 1:10 pm) Yesterday (2-8-08) I leased for 27 months but only 10k miles/year the exact same car--or nearly so-- '08 350CLK convert. (I estimate the car will have not more than 12,000 miles on it when I turn in back in 27months) options are: Extra cost paint Premium I NAV Heated Seats ipod IRG participation  $600 -whatever that is MSRP on this car is $61,320. the "capitalized cost" was $ 58,480 My sales tax is only 3.4% -- with $1k down (including the 1st pymnt) my monthly cost is $702.61. The important thing to remember when leasing is that whatever you put "down" over and above the first payment will be lost if you have a car stolen -or- written off by your insurance company.
