I did the math and the actual payment with term you included should be $791.00 includeing 8.75% tax
 
the residual is 52%
rate factor - .00135
 
I do have to say however the selling price is very aggresive what dealer is offering this deal? I am in the market for a 2010 GL 450 and I am going to Fletcher Jones in Newport on Thursday to try to make a deal. Let me know and by the way $7500 down for $7500 is a little tight - You are almost there. Thanks

Mercedes of South Bay. They have a huge inventory as they are a volume dealer.
 Talk to Sung Park (nice, decent, wants to move cars)
 
Don't waste your time on FJ if you are looking for a good deal - they are good ass kissers but I don't think its worth paying thousands more for

GL450 Your thoughts by sshas

Love the advice and wondering if you/anyone can assist?
Looking to move into a 2010 GL450 with a P2 package, running boards & Parktronic.
 
The numbers are:
MSRP: 71,225
Invoice: 67,702
Lease based on 66,272
 
MB is absorbing 6 least payments on my E350 of 595 or 3600.
I pay taxes upfront and additional money down of 8300.
Monthly payment of 799.
Lease Term is 36 months - 12K a year.
 
Wondering if this makes sense to you. I like the numbers based on my previous review at two other dealers in the tristate area.
 
Your thoughts?

Your are getting about a 7% discount off the MSRP. I just bought a GL350 from South Bay for 11.25% below MSRP and buy rates.
The dealers have about 12.25%-12.5% in a Mercedes, before any lease cash, so the amount below invoice doesn't matter, it the discount in percentage from the MSRP that matters.
Assuming you are getting buy rates, you should be able to get the car for $8K total driveoff and $750 or a little more including tax with 36/12K.

Hi! I am interested in a 2010 GL450 lease for 39 months/12k miles a year. list on the car is 67,855. It has the P1 package, ent system,running boards. The price we got to lease is $829/mo with total $6800 out the door down (includes tax,title,etc and $ down). How do I know if this is a good price? i have shopped around the area and it seems comparable, but based on things I have seen online, I am not sure. I just want to make sure I am not getting taken advantage of -
 
Any thoughts would be greatly apprecaited. ps: how reliable are these cars??

The deal you are getting is not great, but also not a total drek (I figured if your username is oyvey you would understand what drek means
Compare it to the national ad on MBUSA.com with $6500 driveoff and $719+tax for a car that is $2000 cheaper and for 10K miles per year. The GL450 has a good residual, and even with $2000 difference in sticker, you should end up paying no more than $30 or so more per month with the same down for 36 or 39 months.
November rates for the GL450 is slightly better than October (residual is the same and MF for 36+ months is .00124)
If you want a good deal, got to a large dealership like South Bay in SoCal (ask for Sung) that has a large inventory and doesn't need to milk every deal (Don't waste time on FJ )
Bottom line: Aim for $6500 driveoff with $700+ tax for this car and see what happens - I think its easily doable. Good luck.
The GL is pretty reliable. All MBZ cars, like all luxury cars, have their issues, and unless you got a lemon, you should not expect too many problems.
Look at the big picture: Its a great car, fun, roomy, comfortable. It doesn't get any better.

thank you wlrdlr - and yes, I do know what drek means! I am MOTT -
 
I will hold out for around $739 (including 6.25% tax) and see where it gets me. We used to live in the south bay, but now live in Boston, a little too far, don't you think Dealer here seems motivated, so I will keep you posted
thanks for the feedback!
 
enjoy the sun!!

So this is the lastest deal:
 
2010 GL450
Artic white/ blk interior
 
P1 package, running boards, dvd install in headrests,
 
Deal is $6800 out the door, 36month/12 year
 
$749/mo lease.
 
This is around 700 plus tax like another person mentioned. I am in no rush for the car and am wondering if I might be able to get a lower payment towards year end -

Looking to lease a new GL450. Premium 1 package, appearance package, and towing accessories. MSRP = 67725. 36 or 39 mo's, 12k/yr.
 
What would be a good monthly number - is it possible to get better terms than what's being offered through their sales event?
