$342 Mercedes-Benz E300 4matic loaner

Best I have been able to get is just over $400 (before sales tax) with 15K miles a year and $0 drive off other than 1st month payment and MSDs. This would translate to sub $400 for 10K or 12K miles a year.

I haven’t signed yet so I don’t want to post the details. I think it’s a good deal, I just don’t live in the city in which the dealer is and won’t be able to go get it for another couple of days.

I’ve found plenty of demos eligible for lease, but none near 20% off MSRP, let alone the low to mid 20% range discounts I’ve seen posted. Is it just a matter of staying persistent and patient, or is this unlikely?

What region are you in, and how competitive is the local market?

Unlikely. But then again 18s roll out soon, then they lose loaner status.

MB had lease support for 2016 E class through July of 2017, so they don’t completely disappear as the new models roll out.

As service loaners they do

East Coast/Mid Atlantic. I think they’re happy to wait for someone to buy one for only a slight discount since they are almost new.

July 2017?

I called around in Jan/Feb and was told by several dealers that 2016s were no longer eligible for leasing. Maybe it was a regional thing? I’m on the west coast.

I had mixed answers from dealers around leasing a 2016 loaner prior to end of July - I didnt close on anything, so not sure if it was a technique to get me in the door. That being said the 2016 lease thread on Edmunds was active up until the end of July, not sure if anyone confirmed closing on a 2016 lease deal.

For MB, you the last date you can lease a previous MY vehicle is March 31st.

So the last day that you can lease a MY17 vehicle will be 3/31/18

Hi @inter101,

Would you mind can you please share dealer info? I’m currently looking for E300 loaner or new car with great monthly price but it’s a bit hard to get it in West North area…

Thanks for your help in advance :slight_smile:

The deal is gone.

You need to search nationwide and making multiple phone calls to different dealers if you want to get similar and better deal than the one I got offered.

Are penfed and united rebates one or the other? can you apply both to the same car?

You can’t stack them from what I know.

Also, some dealers will also say you can’t stack the dealer cash and the fleet incentives.

How did you come up with $4500 for MSD?

His monthly with tax and before the MSDs was between $400-$450. It gets rounded up to the next $50, so it’s $450 * 10 MSDs = $4500.
