Buy or lease MB GLE 350

Hi all, asking from Los Angeles, California.

I got an leasing offer for the 2024 MB GLE350 (including maintenance package a few upgrades) for $5k down and $700 a month. MSRP is around $72,380.

Is this a good lease deal or should I buy (finance) the car?

Thanks!

Based on limited data i seen here looks good. However, need more details such as selling price, rebates, etc

Post your best attempt at the LH calculator

You are missing all the fees.

Your acquisition fee should be $1095 (most MB dealers mark it up). What about government fees?

Buy buy buy buy buy! You are welcome

Hmmm you have the 36 month; 12k per annum resid is 67%? Is the resid somehow because you have some care package? Also you’re showing the MF at .0010. Who are you leasing through?

There’s no way financing this thing will be cheaper than the lease structure you put into that calculator simply because your interest rate will be at least 5% and your real life experienced depreciation over the first 3 years will be much more than what depreciation is in the lease.

MB doesn’t do a RV bump for a maintenance package, AFAIK.

Edmunds is showing 56% residual and MF of 0.00285 (at least for MBFS).
