C280 4-matic rates by gold233790

Carman-
 
What are the current residual and MF for a c280 4-matic? I was told by a dealer that their "deal" is good through Nov. 30th, but of course it makes sense to figure out on my own what I want to spend before jumping at their deals.
 
Looking at 39 month and either 12 or 15k miles.
 
Thanks.

You're in luck, gold233790. I just had an opportunity to take a look at Mercedes- all new November lease program for this car. If you were to lease a 2006 Mercedes-Benz C280 4Matic through Mercedes-Benz Credit in November for 39 months with 15,000 miles per year, its buy rate lease money factor and residual value should be .00205 and 59%, respectively assuming that you pay a security deposit, acquisition fee, and qualify for its top credit tier. Its 12,000 miles per year residual value would be 2% higher.

C-280 w/out 4-matic by blease

Are the residual and MF for the regular C-280 much different from those you posted above for the 4-matic?
Also, I'm in Texas where it appears that when leasing a car, the lessee has to pay sales tax on the full value of the car, not just on the portion leased. Are you familiar with this practice and does it make leasing a car in Texas not a good idea financially??
 
Thanks -

Hi Blease. The Mercedes-Benz lease program for the 2006 C280 without 4Matic is a little worse than the program for ones equipped with this option. Mercedes-Benz Credit's current 36 or 39 month buy rate lease money factor for a 2006 2WD C280 is .00230.
 
Unfortunately, I am aware of the annoying way that Texas calculates sales tax on leased vehicles. Many Texas residents get around the high sales tax that is charged on leases by getting balloon notes instead. Balloon notes are very similar to leases, but sales tax is calculated differently on them in your state.

Here's the information that you are looking for, HSC. If you were to lease a 2006 Mercedes-Benz C280 4Matic through Mercedes-Benz Credit right now for 39 months with 15,000 miles per year, its buy rate lease money factor and residual value should be .00205 and 54%, respectively.

Carman.,
 
Please provide me with current MF and Residual for a 2006 C230 Automatic Sedan for a 2yr, 15000mi/yr lease and a 3yr, 15000mi/yr lease. The dealer I am working with is offering to pay my first two lease payments for me. Have you ever heard of that before? Thanks in advance.

Here's the information that you're looking for. If you were to lease a 2006 Mercedes-Benz C230 Sedan through Mercedes-Benz Credit right now for 24 months with 15,000 miles per year, its buy rate lease money factor and residual value should be .00235 and 70%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 36 month lease should be .00210 and 61%. Manufacturers run special programs that waive the first lease payment or two on vehicles from time to time. In fact, Mercedes-Benz has one on the R-Class right now. I haven't heard about this sort of program on the '06 C-Class though. If the dealer is paying for your car's first two lease payments on its own, it could cut into your ability to negotiate the lowest possible selling price because they are eating into their profit to make the payments for you.
