About to finance fully-loaded 2023 EQS 580. 3.5k miles. MSRP 146k; I got them down to 115k. Any reason I shouldn't buy?

:melting_face: OP is that kind of person who just had money and believe what dealer says.
Like my friend bought a car in 2021 with all cash, when the lease deals are over 9 years, and loan rate is 1.8% for 60 months, just because the dealer told him “you cannot get a car loan because you are not US citizen, and only one of this trim left in Texas”
I told him I got a lease from BMW on a student visa with just a offer letter. But he never believe what I said. End up paying all cash for a Lexus… :melting_face:

Well, people just got money so they don’t need to think about “is it a good deal?” It was just his one week paystub(now it’s 3 days) for all the money he lost on paying all cash. Yeah, why?

Why have so many people “teaching” you something, why you just forget about this forum and tell yourself this is good deal and enjoy the smile of your family? For maybe 2 days on you paystub?

I don’t know, they aren’t going to let it go because they need to hold some kind of rate.

You either pay the $5 or $10 to become a super supporter here, which will unlock at least some of that info on the calculator here.

And/or, you can ask on the Edmunds lease forum for the EQS (specify you’re talking about the SUV) to ask them what the base MF, incentives/rebates, and such are for your zip code w/ your preferred trim and mileage limit.

Then you take all that info and plug it into the calculator to see if the number you get is what the is offering you.

I think I already disclosed the rate

Holy shit. How did you do that? Can you please explain? Do I show this to the dealer and ask him to match it? What are my arguments to him?

Oh, I know. But the OP keeping asking.

Fundamentally, OP, you do what @LeaserOC suggested and learn how a lease works. And, I mean this seriously, slow down and read the “category” description next to someone’s name.

Lol Derek - if you have a 580 SUV, I think the folks on LH would prefer you sell to Damin than whatever local dealer he’s at.

The problem is I don’t have the Pinnacle and mine are all black. And I don’t usually do NY.

I can go with mid-trim as long as you have three rows and one of the gray / white interiors. I’d love to give my business to you, as a thank you.

Yeah, don’t have third row either

You have the patience of a saint. A reverse aronchi, if you will.

Ok enough spoon feeding.

OP it should be pretty simple from here if you want the car. If it were me I’d simply tell them I’ll take if they can do base money factor (or a lightly larger discount to compensate for it). If they say yes then simply tell them to drop the mileage to 7,500 a year before you sign.

If someone wants to be generous they can let you know if fleet/Sam’s club would help this deal.

This thread has run its course…

OP - it’s obvious this is a hard-to-find vehicle you really want. Folks have been generous enough to give you a target number and if I were you, I’d just squeeze that dealer for every last drop till you hit a number you’re happy with and be done with it.

YOLO and good luck!
