Been lurking for a month or two and was inspired to try and get a deal on the c300 4matic. Appreciated all of the leasing insights on here. Especially the leasing101 materials and details/posts on Mercedes Loaner vehicles, fleet discount, and MSDs.

Great deal, looks like it has nice options. Is it a P2?

For those on the east coast, here is a potential c300 to try to hack, relatively low MSRP and 28% off.

Wow! That could easily be $230 - $250 w/ zero drive off. Incredible find, someone should jump on that.

What #s do you use to get that monthly payment? I am in FL and looking to get into a c300 asap

Linked numbers in calculator. Basically just the sale price they are advertising + base MF (.00089 in CA not sure about Maryland) + 10 MSDs. This gets you $245. If you can apply $500 from fleet on top of the sales price you’ll get to $229.

Did you adjust residual for mileage?

On the Annapolis one? Yeah I guesstimated a 59% residual instead of 61% due to the mileage. Might be off.

2.6% (6076 Ă— .20)/46135

Yeah, I’ve been going back and worth with them over the last couple of days.

Yeah it’s a little over 57

How reasonable have they been? I sent them an email last week asking if they would lease it at buy rate and standard acquisition fee and the answer I received is below:

Short and to the point - love it. lol.

That’s a good one. I once had a salesman (Mercedes) claim they couldn’t use base money factor because they didn’t use it for other customers and it wouldn’t be fair.

I get that with every dealer I talk to. They respond like I stole their kid’s lunch money.

Could you imagine if the manufacturers didn’t limit the greed? We would see some hysterical money factors. “Sure we will discount it $20,000…money factor is just .00492”.
