Hi everyone, I have been searching this forum for GLE related topics and it seems to me that it’s not the right time to lease one. MF is generally high (even by today’s standards) for Tier 1 applicants. Dealers try to charge full MSRP on most models, except for electric ones, and seasoned forum mem…

MB is across the street from me. I quoted someone 675 on a xc60, they leased the glc instead at 1049. MB customers just have a different kind of money

I was offered 16% off on demo by a broker here. I didn’t want demo, so I got a new one. Well, kind of new, it had 13 miles on odometer when I picked it up.

It’s not so much about amount of money you spend, but the value you get for the money spent. It’s a waste of money to pay what MB charges for the lease. If you finance to own or pay cash after some discount it might be ok, but leasing it is just a throwaway of the money.

It’s customers like that that make it possible for me to get the GLS at $1140 (less than $100 more per month) so more power to them :open_hands: And I got the GLS at Smithtown! (albeit this was 2 years ago)

2* years ago (*not exactly 2, since mid summer 2021 MB got crazy, but I mean in early 2021) good deals on MB were possible. MBs I leased were in $450-$600/mo range, with zero down, sign and drive. Now they ask $950 or more for new gen GLC, a cr@ppy car compared to previous gen. GLEs went through the…

[image] Eric51: The fact that I live in librul governed MD, where full amount of purchase (minus any trade-in) is taxed @6% doesn’t help. Red TX has the same 6% on the selling price (and no sales tax credits for trade, AFAIK), FYI.

But hey, at least they have tax credits on leases per month by month basis
