Is the MSRP you gave me on the 450 or the 320 CDI? I ask because the residuals differ by 1%.
 
Numbers based on 12k annual miles for a 33 month term.
 
For a GL 450, your payments would be $764.16/mo. (includes tax)
 
For a GL 320, your payments would be $785.01/mo. (includes tax)
 
~ drive off fees: $764.16 (1st mo. pymt) + $795 (MB lease acq. fee) + ~$525 (DMV Fees) + ~$100 (misc.local fees such as tire fee, doc fee, electronic dmv filing fee, etc.)
 
~ $2200 due at signing. All or some of the above can be rolled into your lease payments.
 
All the information I have points to 33 months being the most advantageous term.

450 GL Lease by spiralling

Just wanted some input from some of the knowledgeable people on here.
 
I was thinking of leasing a 450 GL
MSRP: $66170
Cap Cost $62335
33 month term
MF: .00155
61% Residual
 
Total comes out to $825 a month w/o taxes. Taxes are $2348 Acq fee $795
 
Can you tell me if
1. you think this is a good deal
2. If I rolled in the taxes and acq fee and only paid about $1000 up front, what should my monthly payments come out to then?
 
I'm about to pull the trigger on this soon if it seems reasonable.
Thanks in advance.

What state do you live in? What's your local sales tax rate?

With tax and acquisition fee capped into your lease, you'd be at $923/mo and would pay 1st month payment + dmv fees at signing. With taxes capped in, but acquisition fee paid upfront, you'd be at $896/mo and would pay 1st month + dmv fees + acq fee upfront.
 
Based on the money factor being utilized, for every $1k that they could knock off, your payments would drop ~$35/mo. The cap cost they quoted you appears to be about $400-$500 over invoice. Certainly not a bad deal, but you might try and see if they'll cap the cost at invoice or maybe go $500 back (below invoice).
 
In regards to Grandprix, it's certainly an option, but just take into consideration the price of your vehicle in comparison to the member who posted that they leased for $750/mo. His vehicle could have been less expensive, or he may have leased when there were additional incentives such as bonus lease cash etc.
 
The numbers being quoted to you are MBC's base numbers and I don't know of another leasing source that can match the residual and/or money factor on this particular lease.
 
Best of luck to you!
