#329 of 599 Re: Quote Over the Phone? [srvlonghorn] by vinnyny Jun 24, 2008 (4:26 am)
Replying to: srvlonghorn (Jun 20, 2008 7:13 pm) Dealers are in the business of selling cars, not talking about cars. Most dealers figure that there's very little chance that they can sell you a car over the phone while they have a fairly decent chance of selling you a car if you're physically in the dealership. Although I have bought at least ten cars over the internet or phone, I've only bought two without going in to the dealer to close the deal. They know that no matter how close they can get you to buying the car over the phone, they almost always have to get you into the dealership to finalize the deal--so why not get you in first?

Replying to: theodore (Jul 05, 2008 11:13 pm) theodore -   Looking at leasing a car very similiar in CA. Was wondering how much of the drive-off cost was considered docs & fees vs. cap reduction?   Thanks and congrats! Replies to this message: theodore (Jul 10, 2008 5:52 am)

Replying to: userla (Jul 09, 2008 1:38 pm) I think the cap reduction was approx $1000 and the remaining $724 was tax, title and first month. I didn't pay any security deposit.

I'm looking to lease an '08 C350 and my dealer has done $100 over invoice, but they've added an "acquisition fee" of $795 on top of the $875 destination fee that's built into the invoice. Is this bogus?   I feel like an '08 could still be had under invoice, no? Replies to this message: kyfdx (Jul 16, 2008 12:52 pm)

Replying to: userla (Jul 16, 2008 12:25 pm) Almost every bank lease includes an acquisition fee paid by the customer... This fee goes to the bank.. Banks do allow dealers to mark-up this fee for extra profit, however.. $795 is MB Financial's base fee..   regards, kyfdx
#337 of 599 C300 lease quote by fasanfamily Jul 19, 2008 (9:57 pm)
Quoted for lease on a C300 with automatic transmission, metallic paint, Premium I, ipod integration kit & 6 disc cd. MSRP around $36k. Deal was $469 inc. tax on 39 month lease with $1500 total drive off. I dont know every detail on the deal as I just glanced at the printed offer as I was walking out on them but selling price was in the $32,000s (ie below invoice). Don't know how many miles per year. I currently have a benz, not sure if there is extra incentive for some sort of loyalty program or not.   Seems like a pretty aggressive deal but I didnt go there to buy today as I'm not sure if the C300 is my final choice, just wanted to know how much it would lease for to compare it to my other options. Just thought I'd post this up here for an FYI and also to see what the opinions are of this particular deal.   This was at Keyes on Van Nuys, Los Angeles area, through their internet/fleet manager. They had over 40 C class in stock, I guess they just got a shipment a couple of weeks ago.

Replying to: fasanfamily (Jul 19, 2008 9:57 pm) That actually looks like a pretty good deal. I wasn't aware that the C300s could go below invoice since they are relatively new. if you can post the 39mo rates, that would be great. Replies to this message: fasanfamily (Jul 21, 2008 10:53 am)
