Msrp 31,000? I think even the base RWD model starts much higher than that.

MBFS is not doing lease transfers. At least as of yesterday

This is directly from my Financial Documents from MBFS.

Include the DAS amount in the title.

Lease Transfers are currently on hold until DMVs open up. But I am still going to post so that I can get the ball rolling to find somebody to transfer to.

You are correct. My 2012 C250 which had all of 2 options (wood trim and satellite radio) had an MSRP of $37K.

This value is based on 8k mileage. Either way, I have the paperwork

Which affects the selling price or residual, not the MSRP. I assume you are misreading the contract.

100% either that or this guy has a CLA250.
OP take a look at your window sticker, if you don’t have it go to https://monroneylabels.com pay them $7.99 and get it, and post it here.

The base MSRP for a 2018 C-300 was $40,250

It’s possible that you might have gotten a STEEPLY discounted loaner, hence your SELL price was $31,535.54. Otherwise the numbers don’t add up.

Yes this vehicle was a retired loaner and was definitely a great deal.

That makes sense, I suggest you put the correct MSRP, as that is needed to calculate the leasehackr score. Your MSRP is substantially higher than what you’ve listed, which will net a much better score and in turn show the community you have a phenomenal deal.

Even if the MSRP is 41k, that means your leasehackr score is in the neighborhood of 14 years. which is NUTS

Thanks for your feedback and help! I definitely would love to ride this lease out but I’m expecting twins in a couple months so I’ll need more room lol I did a lot of research on Lease Hackr, and then emailed every single Mercedes Benz dealer in Southern California to land this deal.

That explains. Just so you know that while the payment is great, you might get pushback on the DAS.
That might be an easier sell on swap a lease vs this forum.

237 base pmt w tax
2500 das (2500/17 months remaining= $147)
$237 + $147 = $384 effective monthly payment
Still not bad for a loaner, but I know that in todays market it’s possible to replicate. Your deal is still appealing in the sense its a shorter term commitment

LH Score Calc:
40250 / (384*12) = 8.73 years

:+1:t2: got it. Good luck
