Has the OP been scared off???
Yes I have 
Why? You didn’t buy it yet? lol
Guys,
I’m in desperate need of guidance. I was about to pull the trigger (finance) on a fully-loaded EQS 580 with 3.5k miles. MSRP 147k. “Pinnacle” trim, with a third row, which was a must. I talked the dealer in Tampa down to 115k.
Then I made a post on this forum, and you guys knocked me down to reality. Apparently the EQS is a horrible vehicle to finance, and if I really want to drive it, I ought to lease.
So now I’m trying to lease it. I just don’t know where to begin. Can someone please walk me through this? What are the odds of me getting a mid-level trim with a third row for around 1.5k a month or less?
I’m in Long Island, NY.
I moved your post here (or maybe the entire thread should have been moved there) 
Either way there’s no need for simultaneous parallel discussions which become redundant.
The easiest is to click Marketplace
Third row may make things challenging to find inventory, but under $1500 shouldn’t be hard to do.
@AutoCompanion, you got a EQS 580 for OP?
I believe we have a single loaner.
Just take your time and talk to one of the brokers here. Plenty of good representation here that won’t rip you off. Your Tampa dealer can wait, it’s no big deal.
Do the SUVs have comparable deals to the sedan?
If so, OP, there is a very long thread here about EQS sedan deals, but I don’t know when the last post was (and I’d probably start from the last post there [if it’s not too long ago] and work your way back up).
You guys just saved a ton of money for the op. Waiting for a happy ending with a signed lease .
Maybe I missed it but is the vehicle he already has a decent discount on (assuming that selling price is before at least some of the rebates) not leasable. Even if it’s not the best deal in the world it’s the exact car the OP wants and they’ll still save a ton over purchasing.
Loaners, demos and other untitled cars with miles on them are usually leasable thru the captive. But not an actual used vehicle that has already been titled to a retail owner.
I get that I just didn’t get from their post that it was from a private party. OP can let us know if it’s with a Mercedes dealership.
Theyll still lose a ton of money over leasing a new one though
The 112k is after all the rebates. Before tax, fees, etc.
Dealership.
What’s the sales price before rebates (ie dealer discount)? From there folks should be able to tell you if it’s a deal worth pursuing for a lease.
