Williamc:
 
I'm actually in southern VA now (USAF moves me every three years). But you know what they say: "Home is where the heart is". As a die hard Mets, Jets, Knicks, and Rangers fan, I should probably say "BROKEN heart"...
 
BTW, I actually bought my C350 in Tampa. It was such a crazy deal that I bought it online and flew down to pick it up. I wanted a 6 speed and could only find two east of the Mississippi--one in Cleveland and one in FL.

Funny you mention the 6 speed, I wanted a 6 speed too, mine took 8 weeks to deliver b/c they did not have all the specs I wanted and they had to place the order to the factory in Germany, so I go it hot from the oven , I love the drive worth the wait for sure. My MF was about 8% but residuals are very high 68% for a 39 month lease, I did not have an amazing deal but I wanted the car so I was ok paying a little bit of a premium. I am in northern VA - Washington DC Area, I got my car in Tysons Corner.

The dealer told me I got the only 6 speed, 3.5 with leather left on the east coast. I couldn't order one because I bought it at the end of the model year and the 08s were already hitting the lots. It was simply too good a deal on an excellent car to pass up.

Money Factor Updates by cpsri99

Does anyone know when the new Money Factors are set by Mercedes? I thought it was the beginning of each month. Would it be worthwhile to wait until Nov for the MF to drop if I'm planning on leasing?

I don't know where you all are from, but here in NJ (Little Silver), the leases are running about 460-475/mo. for a C with automatic trans.

We got a lease for 08 C300 sport 4matic last sunday. It includes P1 and Multimedia Package. MSRP is $39656. We didn't care how the dealer calculated the payment, we only know that we got it for 0 Downpay, but we paid the tax upfront, with all other fees and first month payment, we paid 3500 altogether that day and then $555 each month for 39 month and 12k miles each year. This includes a Tire insurance which is about $15 each month. So the lease took us about $540 each month.
 
The price is ok I think, but we are not so happy about one thing. Before we went there, they said the price will be $525 a month. But they increase it to $557 when we got there. Their reason is that we didn't get approved for Tier one credit! Our credit score is 770 but didn't got approvel for tier one credit! They said although we had good credit score but we don't have a house or had ever had a car loan before. I didn't know whether is true or they were just playing trick, but we were so tired to back up then. So we settled at $540 for the monthly payment.
 
By the way, we live in NJ near NYC.

I've heard of MB strict finance rules. I think it is legitimate but am glad they met you in the middle. They are so stringent-I don't get it?
 
I got a quote in NJ at Contemporary (central NJ) for $465/mo. no money down except initial fees, etc. for basic no frills 08 C300. Does that seem right to everyone since others seem so much higher?

Lease Qualifications by themike

I want to lease a new 2008 300 C-class, but my Fico is 653 equifax, 675 Experian & Transunion. Do you think I can qualify? I make $95K per year and only student loan payments.
I make more than enough to make the payments, but not sure if I can qualify...
I would appreciate any feedback.

c350 lease in Texas by dabnat
Oct 29, 2007 (7:31 am)

I am in the process of leasing a C350, multimedia, 18" wheels and ipod integration in Texas. The dealer is selling at $750 below MSRP. They are quoting a money factor of .004 for a 39 mo lease with 15,000 miles and a 59% residual. Is anyone else seeing a mf rate like this? Credit score is 800+.
