Replying to: jwilliams2 (Aug 28, 2009 7:17 am) The bottom line is that consumers should look up the invoice price of the car that they want, subtract any available cash incentives, add a little to that and then start comparison shopping with a few dealers in there area, going with the one that offers them the lowest total price.

Replying to: christina271 (Sep 03, 2009 10:31 am) Even though Mercedes isn't providing lease support on the '09 C300 4Matic, it does have $3,000 dealer cash on it right now. Make sure to take this cash into account when negotiating your deal. If you really want to lease, you probably would be better off going with a 2010 model. MBF's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for an equivalent '10 model would be .00163 and 57%. Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum |

Replying to: Car_man (Sep 08, 2009 2:50 am) I realize this is of no big concern to the fine folks at Edmunds. But it makes a huge difference to the dealership and its sales team. Edmunds should strive to offer accurate information, and brushing aside facts hurts your credibility, and furthers misunderstandings to the consumer. And your comment about "power bills, floorplan", etc it totally off the wall. Don't know where you came up with that. You need to get your facts straight if you are going to pose as an authoritative voice of Edmunds. Otherwise, you are simply misleading people.

I am looking to lease a 2010 c300 sport. Currently MBUSA.com is adverting a special lease offer of $399/month for 36 months with $4,844 due at signing. This includes 10k miles per year, automatic transmission and premium package. I am interested in getting this lease, but either eliminating the premium package or substituting other options. Can the Mercedes special lease offers be modified? I am hoping that by eliminating the premium package i can either reduce my monthly payment or down payment. Please Advise...thanks in advance

Hi Billmv, the discussion had to do with why the dealers invoice is higher than the numbers on Edmunds. Car_man is simply mistaken when he assumes IRG is not included in the MB invoice to the dealer. The numbers shown on Edmunds are understated, which leads to questions like that posted by ursus. Edmunds does have a clickable link under their "National Base Price" explaining IRG or ADV, but most folks don't bother reading it. Power bills and floorplan simply have nothing to do with it, and weren't pertinent to the conversation. Thanks.......
