Car_Man, Please post the August Lease info (money factor, residual) for the 2006 Mercedes C350 (Sport and Luxury versions) for 12, 24 and 36 months, at 12K and 15K miles per year. Also, does the current $5000 dealer cash apply to these leases through Mercedes? Thanks! |

Replying to: dtawil (Jul 31, 2006 7:34 am) 4 Matic transmission Sunroof Package Sat Radio 39 mon / 15 k miles I paid $6K down including taxes, tags, first mont payment, acq fee etc. Down payment was on the higher side bcoz MD charges tax on total vehicle price. My monthly payment is $339. I was offered $335 for 27 months. But I decided to go with 39 months due to high upfront taxes. Anyway, considering what I was offered back in Jun 2006 your deal is higher by approx. $2k (i.e. over the period of 27 months). Hope this helps.......... |

Replying to: carguru7 (Aug 11, 2006 9:17 am) It seems like you got a great deal, but I don't like how much you had to put down. Anyway, I didn't take the lease I mentioned above, but a week later the dealer calls me with the following offer on a 2007 C280, which I ended up taking. 2007 C280 4 MATIC Sunroof Package Navigation 6 CD Changer Memory Seats 27 month/ 10k miles per year lease. $450 a month including taxes. My total due at signing was about 1350 and that included my first months payment, bank fee, and document fee. What do you think?

Replying to: dtawil (Jul 31, 2006 7:34 am) I leased a 2007 C 280 Luxury Sedan 4Matic Sunroof Package Rear side airbags CD changer Split fold down seats 48/mo 12k miles/yr Had $0 down, and $489 mo. including taxes I've leased many vehicles and paying money down on a lease is not the best way to go. Never pay $$ down, if you have the extra cash put it in an account and use it toward your mo. payment. NEVER GIVE IT TO THE DEALER!!! |

I have 3 months left on my '04 C230W, it was only allowed 48,500 miles and has 61,600 - residual value is $19,878 and have paid $21,982.35 - I want to buy it but with the additional miles can't I negotiate with MB financing to lower the residual. The car is in excellent shape and has no dents/dings, runs like a clock and looks great too! I need some guidance on how to try to get this car for less than the residual, do I have any bargaining like other cars? If I buy for the residual, the car ends up being more than the sticker price, how does that work? The balance would be $11,807.65 to make up the price of $33,790 leased in Sept.'03......Help, have never wanted to keep a leased car before, this will be the first to keep of many leased vehicles.............JB

Replying to: njb325 (Sep 04, 2006 6:15 pm) Forget the original sticker. That has no bearing on things now. You paid for depreciation plus interest. Your contract says you can buy it for the residual. You want it for less. they do NOT want your car with 16,000 extra miles at the end of your lease. Put an ad in your local paper with 62,000 miles and see what your best offer is. That's what it's worth. It will be lots less than $19,878. If they take it back they'll just send it to the Manheim auction and get $14,000 for it (est), so tell them you want to buy it for $14,000. If you have a big auction in your area, go by and ask them to appraise your car. If they say it'll sell for $14,00, then MB will get 90% of that value.
