I currently live in NJ and looking at possibly leasing a 2024 Mercedes CLA45 AMG. I went to build one out on the Mercedes website, but they’re not running lease estimates for this model. I thought about going to my local dealer to talk to a rep. but I would much rather avoid having to talk my way out being able to leave the place, haha.
So I wanted to ask if anyone here has leased a CLA45 recently and how was your deal structure. (RV, MF, Rebates/incentives, monthly payment, etc.)
If you join as a Super Supporter, you can use Ratefindr to get RV, buy rate MF, and rebates/incentives (although they apparently none significant, from the post above).
Or you can ask on the appropriate Edmunds forum for that info.
Yeah this is probably going to lease pretty bad. I had a 2020 CLA35 AMG lease (55k MSRP) that was 7500 DAS (super mega pwn zone ouch), and $500 monthly on a 36/7.5k.
Dealer paid phantom money 1500 DAS and 6000 DAS was positive equity from a trade-in (oddly was highest offer between all dealers/online/etc. for trade). This was before I discovered LH site.
My only saving grace was at term, because of low miles and used car values, I sold it to Carvana (MB un-restricted third party lease sales right as I needed to sell) and got a positive equity check for $12k. So that was pretty awesome but I got super, super lucky I suppose.
That car was really fun doe! I bet the CLA45 AMG is wild. Would probably end up in jail.
These are purchase vehicles if you really want, IMO.
Thanks everyone! As stated above, the lease terms for this model is not looking too good. I played around with the lease calculator using everyone’s input and even with reasonable adjustments it’s still pretty ugly, haha.
