#593 of 1049 Is $2000 apply only for lease? by mynextcar May 16, 2008 (9:42 pm)
I am considering E350 lease or purchase. I see a couple of people mentioned about $2000 lease money but in Edmund incentive section, it also lists $2000 marketing support apply for all E classes. Since MB also offering 0.9%APR, would it be better to lease or buy the car? I drive only 10k annually.

Replying to: mynextcar (May 16, 2008 9:42 pm) How long do you "realistically" want to keep the vehicle? Replies to this message: mynextcar (May 17, 2008 7:03 am) ocautoseeker (May 21, 2008 1:44 am)

#596 of 1049 E63 Residual and MF by jackk1 May 18, 2008 (7:57 am)
I am looking at a 2008 E63 Retail Price 95440, cap cost 86940 and I have been told two different MF and Residual values from two dealerships. I am looking at a 27 month 15k mi. per year lease. .00150 and .62 and .00120 and .59 are the two I was quoted. What are the real numbers from Mercedes Financial? Thanks.

Replying to: mynextcar (May 16, 2008 9:42 pm) We don't usually lease cars. But with the deals that are around, we decided to lease - our deal 2008 MB E350-4matic - white, tan MB tex, P1, Ipod, Panorama Roof, Wood Steering Wheel, "Natural Wood Trim", Sport Package - $58,220 list - Lease deal (10k miles per year - $585 monthly payment - 27 months (1st month paid by MB/dealer) - residual of $36,600 - $0 down) - so if we bought the car at the end of the lease the total cost is $51,810. We figure that this is "free financing" with the option to change cars if we want in 27 months or if the value then is lower than residual, there is a possibility of paying less than the residual on the buy then. We'll pick up the car on Tues or Wed. Replies to this message: mynextcar (May 20, 2008 5:14 pm)

Replying to: calbear05 (May 19, 2008 6:35 pm) I was offered $8000 below MSRP last month in california. I Think it's still available. If the dealer is willing you should get it.

Replying to: kyfdx (May 15, 2008 7:10 am) "If I do the calc based on the March info and assume a cap cost of $52,000 and a term of 36 months I get:    52,000 X 55% = 28,600 "   this part of the calculation is not correct. The residual is based on MSRP not your cap cost (so if the MSRP is 56000. The residual is 56000x55%)...   "$28,600 (cap cost) + $28,600 (residual) X .00225 MF = $128.70 per month... "   Kyfdx, this calculation is not correct.. the original one is the correct way to calculate the rent (or the finance cost) ...   Also don't forget to roll your acquisition cost and dealer doc fee either into the lease or the upfront payment.   I think this information from Leasecompare.com will help...   (Cap Cost – Residual Value) / Term = Depreciation (Cap Cost + Residual Value) X Money Factor = Interest Depreciation + Interest = Base Monthly Payment Replies to this message: ocautoseeker (May 21, 2008 1:38 am) kyfdx (May 21, 2008 10:53 am)

Replying to: peteropny (May 18, 2008 7:28 pm) Thank you. Sounds like you made a pretty good deal. I too, never lease a car so a little reluctant to go with lease but given the market condition this time, it may make more sense to lease.

Replying to: topgun7 (May 19, 2008 11:58 pm) Kyfdx knew what he was doing, he just accidentally plugged the cap cost in as the residual by accident. He's a smart car guy and I can vouch that it was simply a typo. Replies to this message: kyfdx (May 21, 2008 10:53 am)
