#637 of 1049 Re: leasing a diesel [ghstudio] by msc5 Jun 26, 2008 (3:05 pm)
Replying to: ghstudio (Jun 26, 2008 2:04 pm) I probably am going to lease for 3 years this time around. Last lease was for 27 months only because it was a special they were running and cost less than the 36 month lease. All options remaining the same, the difference for the E320 over the same exact E350 is $1000 more. However, I am thinking about the shorter lease only because the model is supposed to change for 2010. Still can't decide what to do. Last time I leased I had worked out the deal for an E350 and due to a screw up at the dealership (car being traded to another dealership by someone who didn't realize it was virtually sold) they gave me the same exact car in the 320 CDI model for the same price I had worked out---even though the 320 was $1000 more---I ended up making out better. This time around I probably won't be so lucky. So, with a $1000 difference---over the life of a 2-3 year lease---and the approx. .50 more per diesel gallon---but less gas over a month's time than the non diesel E350---do you think the 320 still ends up costing more???

Replying to: jpdc (Jun 25, 2008 1:33 pm) I live in the DC area and am also looking at the E350 4Matic. So the Cap Cost was the result of incentives? Did you put any additional money down? Also, how many miles did you negotiate? Thanks. Replies to this message: jpdc (Jun 27, 2008 4:09 am) bpwyatt (Jun 27, 2008 6:43 am)

Replying to: bpwyatt (Jun 26, 2008 7:45 pm) I don't really know how we got to the cap cost. I was planning to ask for $2,000 below invoice based on the incentives, but didn't need to ask. The dealer made this offer straight away (but you should know that my salesman knew me and sold me a GL recently that I negotiated pretty hard). I only needed 10,000 miles/year, which saved me 1% in residual over 12,000. The only money down was $900 -- which was the first month, tags, and a $100 processing fee that I decided not to fight about. And the dealer had sent me a $500 "gas" discount card in the mail, so that was deducted for a total out-of-pocket of just about $400. Replies to this message: bpwyatt (Jun 27, 2008 6:43 am)

Replying to: lbibum (Jun 28, 2008 5:36 pm) Wow seems like a very good deal. I asked several dealers in S. california about getting a E350 $8000+ BELOW MSRP. But they say it's impossible and it's not true. They are saying that the $2000 lease cash is not also there. Does anyone know of qa dealer in S. Cali who will be willing to do $8000+ below MSRP? thanks Replies to this message: ghstudio (Jun 29, 2008 1:08 pm) shawn757 (Jun 29, 2008 7:23 pm) lbibum (Jun 30, 2008 3:27 pm) and 40 more...

Replying to: shawn757 (Jun 28, 2008 10:06 pm) According to my local salesman (who may be blowing smoke) MB just introduced an "employee price" deal on the e class..good until the end of the month (better rush). That would give you the car at a 12 1/2% discount off MSRP. The rest of the lease mf and residuals are unchanged. You might want to give your dealer a call....now.
