Went to the dealer this past weekend. On an E350 with P1 and Ipod adapter, it was about $715 after tax for 27 months, 15k/yr with about $1500 total drive off.

dt78,
 
I just leased and actually got $5,000 rebate which they consider money down on the lease. So yes you can definately get 4k with the employee pricing. They also took 8.7% or $5,039 off the msrp. Adjusted cap cost was $47,221 on a $57,260 msrp. You can probably do better than this if you get the true employee price.

-Premium 1 Package
-I-pod Kit
-Wood Wheel
-Deisgno Burl
-Sports Package (Free)
-Metallic Paint
 
I need some help here, dealer said only $2K in rebates can be applied to car, but i'v read people applying 4 or 5k rebates, is it 2, 4 or 5k?
 
$52373.00 was the cap cost for this car before taxes and bank fee
$54862.16 after both added .. do you think i can get it lower?
 
Im trying to get it somewhere between 47-49K to get payments about $550-575, i also want to add the panorama roof but that is up in the air.

Hey Vchad, this forum was a great help. I just went to a dealer in Nothern California on Sunday and picked up a white E 350 with P02 Package with MVP Pricing.
 
After contacting a dozen dealers up and down California I was unable to get a single dealer to give me employee pricing.
 
I happen to just walk into a dealership near my home and asked the sales manager if he would give me employee pricing. I told him about the pricing that i was looking for, and he worked out a deal on the P02 Package E350 for $430 plus tax a month which made the payments $470 a month for 27 months with 10,000 miles per year.
 
I gotta say I am definitely enjoying the car!!!
 
The sales manager did tell me that the employee pricing codes were given to dealers, in this case this dealership only had three, and he gave me the last code because the lady that had used the code suddenly backed out the night before. This employee code promotion expired on 7/15/08, so he had to backdate my contract to 7/14/08 to do the deal.
 
Once again I just wanted to thank everybody on this forum for helping me make this purchase. Congrats to all the other mercedes E class owners!!!

E350 Lease by nevis

Without the MVP pricing (aka employee discount), what is the best that one can do for the E350 lease with 10,000 miles per year and 27 months? Assuming money factor is 0.00085, how low is dealer willing to go on the selling price?

Help! First time this has ever happened to me by bagelguy

I've been leasing car for the past 18 years. I'm coming to the end of my BMW lease and decided to give MB a shot. They were running a very aggressive lease on the 08 E350. I called a few dealers to get pricing. I worked out a good deal with a dealer who is about 15 miles away from my house and he had the car that I wanted in stock.
For the sake of convenience I stopped by a dealer who is 2 miles from my house and told him the deal I was receiving. He said that he would match the deal and assured me that he can get me the same car without a problem. He wrote up the deal and took a deposit. He strung me along for a week and then told me he couldn't get the car and all the 08 stock was gone. The lease program ended on 7/31 and I have no car. Do I have any recourse?
Thanks,
John

Have you spoken with the sales manager? Contacted Mercedes directly? Don't know if it will do you any good, but you could give it a shot. Did the seller actually sign the sales agreement? I had an experience where a salesman actually failed to sign an order - little trick which I failed to notice until later. Perhaps you could sue the dealership for breach of contract (not likely you'd pursue this course of action) or threaten to report them to the BBB.
 
Hope you get your deposit back in a reasonable amount of time.

I think you hit the jackpot.
 
You have a written deal that they cannot fulfill without taking a loss. They are trying to get out of it by telling you they can't honor it. Push as hard as it takes. They can arrange for a vehicle by swapping with other dealers and/or doing other kinds of tricks. Threaten to pull them before small courts or BBB or anything and everything you can do.
 
On the other hand, getting into a bad relationship with your dealer also means headache later on during regular service intervals etc.... even then, considering this is a lease, I'd say, go with all guns blazing, you have a written contract in hand.
