Replying to: srvlonghorn (Aug 11, 2008 6:41 pm) Here you go...   http://www.gominigo.com/NHLPB-MB.html   We installed it on my girlfriend's 2008 C300 6MT Sport. Works great. Goes into the towhook spot. Don't get the idea in your head that you can make the kit yourself, as the MB threads are proprietary. I found this out after visiting a few machine / bolt shops.   Hope this helps,   Jim

Replying to: srvlonghorn (Aug 11, 2008 6:41 pm) So I live in Texas and I have a C300 sport and did NOT put the plates on my car. It is a law in Texas, but if you look at the Service Center at the Mercedes Dealership - only about half the cars have a front plate. Totally legitimate to pull you over, but I've had NO problems AT ALL and log a LOT of miles around Texas. I keep the plates in my trunk... Replies to this message: jimmyp1969 (Aug 13, 2008 7:15 am)

Replying to: gerrysalme (Jul 25, 2008 8:38 pm) Well I have never leased before, but I was referred to this theleaseoutlet.com by a friend. They seem to have some really low monthly payments on http://www.theleaseoutlet.com/Auto/Mercedes_Lease_Specials.aspx. Like I said, I haven't leased before but I do hope you find the info helpful.........cheers Replies to this message: ghstudio (Aug 19, 2008 7:28 am) 604doc (Aug 19, 2008 8:03 am) ghstudio (Aug 19, 2008 8:51 pm) and 2 more...

Replying to: lkmc01 (Aug 12, 2008 4:05 pm) Well, we live in Houston, and she got a ticket in the first two weeks after she got plates. It's usually an add-on to a speeding ticket, which was the situation with her ticket. So, since she was unwilling to drill holes in the front bumper, we went with the solution I posted above. But, good luck.

Replying to: gerrysalme (Jul 25, 2008 8:38 pm) I'm in the DFW area too and the dealer I went to today didn't have a good deal at all. The MF the quoted me for a 36mo 12K (premium pkg, tech pkg) lease was at .0045 which is utterly ridiculous since it's around 10.8%! The residual was around 56-58% - I think (my eye caught the MF and I focused on that number). When I told them to recalculate based on a tier 1 credit, they came back and told me this was the tier 1 credit rate.   Seriously....0045...I just laughed and walked out.

Hey, for those out there wondering about the MF and residual (like I was) on the 2009 models I found the following on MB world discussions (http://forums.mbworld.org/forums/showthread.php?t=256606)...not the greatest deals but better than what the dealership in DFW quoted me today (for a 2008 models - honestly how are they going to clear out their inventory with MF rates at .0045)?   2009 Mercedes C300 Luxury 24 Month – Residual 67% of MSRP – .00245 Base Rate 36 Month – Residual 56% of MSRP – .00265 Base Rate 48 Month – Residual 46% of MSRP – .00265 Base Rate 60 Month – Residual 40% of MSRP – .00350 Base Rate   2009 Mercedes C300 Luxury 4matic 24 Month – Residual 67% of MSRP – .00235 Base Rate 36 Month – Residual 56% of MSRP – .00255 Base Rate 48 Month – Residual 46% of MSRP – .00255 Base Rate 60 Month – Residual 40% of MSRP – .00350 Base Rate   2009 Mercedes C300 Sport 24 Month – Residual 67% of MSRP – .00245 Base Rate 36 Month – Residual 56% of MSRP – .00265 Base Rate 48 Month – Residual 47% of MSRP – .00265 Base Rate 60 Month – Residual 40% of MSRP – .00350 Base Rate   2009 Mercedes C300 Sport 4matic 24 Month – Residual 67% of MSRP – .00235 Base Rate 36 Month – Residual 56% of MSRP – .00255 Base Rate 48 Month – Residual 47% of MSRP – .00255 Base Rate 60 Month – Residual 40% of MSRP – .00350 Base Rate

Just got back from a dealer on Long Island, NY and left a deposit on a 2008 C 300 Sport with pana roof, Option P2, Auto, Multimedia, Paladium silver $36,500. It was hard to find another C300 Sport, with lower options. Was this a good deal? Replies to this message: madd66 (Aug 16, 2008 10:21 pm) wsh396 (Aug 17, 2008 5:25 am) madd66 (Aug 17, 2008 10:45 am)

Replying to: wsh396 (Aug 16, 2008 3:14 pm) 36K sounds like a good deal for that level of trim. If you're leasing I'd be interested in what they offered you in terms of MF (I also ask for their buy rate as well to see how much they are marking it up), residual and inception fees. I was quoted around 38K in Texas for P1, Auto and multimedia but won't be looking at this car due to the dealer quoting a ridiculous MF (and I'm in the tier 1 category!).

Replying to: madd66 (Aug 16, 2008 10:21 pm) I inquired about a lease, but Leasing really doesen't work well on the 08's. The leasing price on the 09's was very high as well, no special deals and the interest rate isnt very good either. Purchasing is the best deal, if you have access to cash or low financing from other sources. For Purchase the Discount on the 09 was about 1k off MSRP, where the discount off the 08 was 2.5k off INVOICE. I thnk that one could get 4k for invoice on an 08 C350.

Replying to: wsh396 (Aug 17, 2008 5:25 am) Hey, thanks for the information. I'm glad to hear I wasn't getting the run around. I like to lease (since my cars are always in warranty) so it's going to be either BMW or Lexus for this car.
