#435 of 599 NorCal C350 Lease by joebean Mar 15, 2009 (9:00 am)
Picked up a beautiful 09 C350 yesterday in East Bay area, CA. Let me add disclaimer here that yes, I know cap cost reductions = general bad practice. I have my reasons for playing a little with cap reduction and am overall VERY happy with the deal I got. Was looking serious at A4 but MB was able to be more aggressive with pricing.   It's a C350 in palladium silver, black interior with COMMAND/NAV, P2 package and iPod integration kit.   MSRP - $46.310 Residual - $24,081 Cap Cost - $41,322   Taxes / Fees - $1,095 Cap Reduction - $2,825 Net Cap - $39,591   Base Payment - $461.89 Plus CA tax of $38.11 Total monthly = $500 Total drive off = $4k (obvious including 1st month payment)   This forum was invaluable in the buying process. Thanks to those who share their stories and experience.   This is for 39 month lease with 39k miles.

#437 of 599 Reguarding my mercedes lease by lion2122 Mar 23, 2009 (7:45 am)
I shopped around for the Mercedes C 300 4matic. I live in Northern Nj and I got quotes form prestige mercedes in Paramus, Globe mercedes in Fairfeld , and Millinum mercedes in morristown. I must say the person who gave me the best deal is Mike Fumai at globe mercedes. I ended up getting the p1 ,multimedia ,Pano roof and ipod with 3500 down at $455.00 monthly. Granted we could of put alot less down and our payment would of been in the high 4's but we wanted to keep our payment in the low to mid 4's. I spoke to the guy Eric at Prestige mercedes . Yes, he was very nice but he wanted to give me a deal for 3500 down for 489.00 a month But I could only get the p1 package no ipod multimedia or pano roof. So obviously I I took my busness elsewhere.
#438 of 599 New York C300 Lease by jeff9241 Mar 23, 2009 (7:17 pm)
I just picked up my C300 4-Matic from Rallye Motors in Roslyn NY. What a great deal I got. First of all they paid off all my 6 payments on my 2006 C230 at 485.00 per month. They also of course paid the 595.00 turn in fee. My new car is the sport model with the premium 1 package and i pod kit. I got 15000 miles per year and am paying 499.00 per month. My only upfront fee was the bank and motor vehicle fees. The first month fee was a wash since it was due on the old car the same day---Tax is included in payment ---Don't think u can beat that!

Replying to: arturob (Mar 12, 2009 6:50 am) Hi, not sure if I am too late to weigh in, but I think your deal could be lower. A payment of $599 a month on top of a cap cost reduction of $2000 is not good at all. I know you said that you are putting $3500 down, but about $2000 of that money is just a cap cost reduction and the rest is the registration, bank fee, etc. You are really paying $650 for that car. We are in a recession. You need to be much lower. Are you paying the tax up front? Don't do that either when it can just be in your monthly payment. That way, you can hold onto your money longer. Really, this car should be $1500 out of pocket and in the high 4s or low 5s. The price of the car you want is like the car I got just optioned differently. Forget the residuals and money factor. It is not your job to make sure the dealership makes a good profit on you. Good luck to you. Replies to this message: arturob (Mar 25, 2009 4:24 pm) mbcos (Mar 26, 2009 10:45 am)
#440 of 599 Chewing on it by cneff Mar 25, 2009 (6:52 am)
well here is where I am with my options - I currently have a CLK which I love but this past winter gave me some 2nd thoughts....anyway MB will buy out the rest of my lease - 5 left at $521 (pretty good anyway for a loaded CLK 350 - 06).   New 09 CLK would be higher with money down - at least that is the deal I'm being offered - now   For a C class C300 4matic sport black with black MBtex - P1, Multimedia 12k miles, 39 months, $1,500 to drive off (includes 1st month payment, reg, etc) - we are hovering around $480/mon with tax. Maybe will get pan roof tossed in...they are sweating so it is possible.   North Jersey location   Again love the CLK and I do think it is a step back to a C class but more practical transportation is calling.

Replying to: mbcos (Mar 25, 2009 6:36 am) thanks, mbcos! I will continue to negotiate more and let you know the results. So I guess I should only focus on the monthly payment - based on the car I want - and inception fees and forget about residual and money factor?   thanks!

Replying to: arturob (Mar 25, 2009 4:24 pm) arturob, yes, forget about these residuals and money factors and blah blah blah at this point. Look at the recent posts from people in this forum. The car is only worth what it will sell/lease for. The last few deals have been really good, even better than the one I got last month. Work off the deals that people got in this forum and compare it to the offer you got from the MB dealership you went to and you can see the large difference. Just go to a different dealer if the one you are at won't work with you because C300s/C350s do not lease for $600 a month, especially with a cap cost reduction. Be firm and don't give in at the car dealership no matter what they tell you. Go to a car dealership and tell them what you want to pay and how much you will pay for it. Good luck.
