I should have noted that the MSRP for the car is 53,850 but I did not get the residual but assume they are using the standard % from MB Finance.

Hi there. How is everyone getting the R500 at $12K for 27 months??? I must have contacted about a dozen dealers across the country and all of them have basically told me that I'm nuts. This would be perfect for my family, but we need this deal to stay in budget. Any pointers??? Please help!!! Thanks in advance.

I just signed a lease on a R350 before seeing this forum. I think you got a better deal than mine:
07 R350 alpine rain
P2
DVD entertainment
voice recog pkg
msrp of about $56650
got it for $51404
 
lease for 39 month, 12K miles/yr
put cap cost of $3K (with a 98 camry trade in, 100K on it) into the lease, resulting in
monthly $600 + tax ($650 total in CA)
drive off $1335 (1st month, DMV fees, tax)
acquisition fee of about $1000 rolled into cap cost.
 
so while mine has more options, I think you prob got a better deal. my residual is about 60% (around $31K)
 
what do you think?
 
by the way, does anyone think the excess wear and tear coverage ($650) is worth it?
 
thanks

Based on what numbers you wrote, you should have paid about $575.27 per month. Im basing this on that the cap cost of $51,404 includes your trade in as well as the Aquisition Fee of $1,000. If it doesnt the payment would compute even lower. I assumed they ever marked up your money factor or your credit score wasnt high enough or marked down the standard residual on 39 months.

Hi Sand529,
 
thanks for the computations. The cap cost of $51404 does not include acquisition fee of $1000 (which seems high to me). With that, the total gross cap cost was $52500 or so. Then they put in the $3000 reduction with trade in from cap cost. So I guess the $600 base monthly payment was pretty bad then. It is the best deal I could shop for in the bay area. But it seem high to me. I wanted $550 monthly (with traide in) and could not get it. BTW, my credit score was over 800 so that was not an issue in the deal.
 
appreciate your thoughts and calculations.

Hi Volker,
 
looks like you got a better deal than mine. just signed last weekend.
 
r350 alpine rain
P2, DVD entertain sys, voice recog, heated seats
msrp 56650, final negotiated 51440 or so
 
39 mo lease, 12K/yr
acquisition of $1095 rolled into cap cost
then $3000 cap cost reduction (with a trade in)
so final number $49400 or so
ended up with $600/mo + tax
residual 60% (31+K)
don't know MF
 
if you massage my numbers backwards like you did with yours, what is the final price of the vehicle? prob no discount from msrp at all?
 
thank for your help

Based on MB Finance current program using 56% residual and .00085 money factor and cap cost of $49,535 after trade & acq fee, I come up with a payment of $529.93 before tax. Without trade it would be $609.40. So it appears the money factor they used is higher or the cap cost is not $49,535, its more like $52,180 using the standard factors.
