I don’t understand why people post these sheets and ask for advice when the marketplace is littered with much better deals for the same exact car 
Is it laziness or they just don’t know any better?

No, it’s because everybody posts the deals on EQS450s, not 580s. Now I am kinda glad I don’t have the Pinnacle trim

This is a emotional equation, not a math one. The lease deal being good or bad doesn’t care what packages are on it.
The deal seems DECENT for 580. Most deals here are for 450, the 580 is definitely more expensive, because incentives don’t linearly scale with MSRP.
If this is 18% discount at base MF, PLUS all incentives, then I think its good

I guess MB in FL is using T3-T4 rate because the MF is not right

What does that mean?
I did mention base MF, OP should verify
Any other high-end three row SUVs you can recommend?
Just stop what? Talk to me like I’m a complete moron with no experience buying or leasing cars. Why is this a bad deal?
Can you please talk to me like I’m an idiot? I don’t know what this means. How do I verify the above?
What’s the mileage penalty on this car? I got to imagine it cheaper to lower the annual mileage and simply pay the overage.
You really want to know?
Just look at Look at people’s replies on it. Also, MF is 0.00108, not 0.00178. That should startle you already. Marking it up 0.0007. That’s about $2,250 difference from the marked up to base.

Can you please explain what this means exactly? How can I tell what the actual money factor is? How should the conversation go with the dealer?
You really need to read leasing 101 and the other eqs threads.
That said I don’t think you’re that far off from a decent deal so don’t give up yet.

I can’t speak to exactly what Derek Oh meant… because I think he’s just saying the money factor got marked up and the deal could be better.
But I think the reason there is so much general hate about what you’re trying to do is that this leasehackr forum generally thinks the EQS is an overpriced/terrible car. Mind you, I leased a EQS 450 Sedan… not a 580. So if people already think the 450 is overpriced, they definitely think MB is out of bounds charging so much more for the 580 and the SUV Pinnacle.
For example, let’s say you picked the middle option of your tic tac toe grid. You’re spending quite a bit so it’s like $1,600 a month. People think you can do better than this EQS with $1,600 a month. After all, a lot of people on this forum think a Hyundai Ioniq 5 is a comparable vehicle to an EQS. So they’d probably prefer you just get into that instead.
I think it’s up to you to decide if you can get a better 3 row vehicle for $1,600 a month. Leasing a Mercedes GLS or BMW X7 is a terrible idea since they lease so badly, so it’d definitely be over $1,600 a month to land one of those. I think the Lexus LX is worth a look - since it kind of slides under the radar.
Anyway, here’s a slightly used EQS SUV 580 with a 3rd row in Tampa. With how these things are doing in the market, I think people here think this car is only worth like $80k. So your trying to do anything on a “demo” EQS 580 north of $100k is drawing ire.

7,500 a year and it doesn’t look that bad.
Also does fleet still apply?
Still under 1%.
You think Damin can get this deal once they fixed the MF?
I kinda want to see this Pinnacle trip EQS lol. Hope the badges don’t fall off.
