I certainly do Neil. Mercedes-Benz Finance's February buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2011 ML350 2WD with 12,000 miles per year are .00087 and 55%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier.
 
The numbers for an otherwise identical 48 month lease are .00087 and 49%.
 
Chances are that you will have to pay for any excess mileage and / or wear and tear on your new vehicle, unless the dealer has some pull with MB Finance. It wouldn't hurt to see if they can do something for you. I've heard about luxury brand captive finance companies being lenient on returning customers in the past.

Hello amcdad. Mercedes-Benz Financial's February buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 24-month lease of a 2011 ML Bluetec with 15,000 miles per year are .00156 and 68%, respectively.
 
The numbers for an otherwise identical 36-month lease are .00156 and 58%.
 
Other than a $1,000 conquest cash incentive for current owners o competitive luxury makes, I am not aware of any cash incentives on this truck right now.

Hi amcdad. The money factor for a 27 month lease would be the same as the ones that I've mentioned. I'm not sure of the residual value for that term though because Mercedes-Benz has a special program that it calls "Value Added" that enables consumers to use its normal residual values for slightly longer terms, i.e. its 24-month resid for a 27-month lease. I have a feeling that this model might be eligible for that program.

#974 of 1548 ML 350 4Matic Lease in Feb by nlm83

Feb 05, 2011 (8:23 am)

Hey Carman
Hoping you might be able to help me out. I am trying to lease an ML 350 with PI package.
Sticker is $55.165
Sale Price is $50,640
Its a 42 month lease/ 12,000 miles year. ( I wanted 36 but the numbers didn't work.) Early pull up at 39 is possible.
I am being quoted $636.93 which seems a little high. Do you have an idea of where you think I should be when I use the Lease Calculator I get a much lower number. Monthly tax rate is based on 6.75%

#976 of 1548 Please help on this lease deal by mb_e63

I am new to the leasing game. We tried to lease a 2011 ML350 MSRP $53,375.. here is the best deal they presented us.. with MB tier 1 lease terms..
 
27 month lease
12k miles a year
$670/month
$1035 due at signing
 
We do have a trade-in that I know is messing up this deal because they supposedly will work in the last few payments for us, but I know those payments are worked into the lease..
 
Any suggestion as to how I can work this deal to my advantage?

#977 of 1548 My deal by car_dude

I pulled the trigger on the ML350 deal.
 
Sticker is $56,045
Sale Price is $46,961
Term - 48 month lease
10,000 miles year
 
Due at signing - $1,670 (1st month & acquisition/DMV fees).
 
Monthly payment - $475 (including taxes).
 
I was concerned about longer lease term (48 month), but I like the car enough to drive it longer. And the MB warranty is exactly 48 months, giving me peace of mind in terms of coverage.
