Most likely.
Swapalease is aware of the rule change and won’t let you list an existing MB lease but leasetrader is apparently still letting people list MB leases, plain robbery.

If you can find one, it’s terrible right now. Pay to play
like how much we talking for monthly?
would it better to buy the used GLS or buy brand new GLE instead of leasing?
They’re both going to offer a very poor value for your dollar

A quick search will show you how few recent results and ads there are. There’s a reason so few brokers/dealers are posting deals for these high-demand vehicles.
Lease always with Germans.

Close to $1k/month now. Pre-chip shortage, they were leasing for nearly $800/month.
You are going to have to do the math on that. Internet strangers can’t help you.
My only advice is to pick a car/SUV you will enjoy driving.

Looks like you were pretty close, thank you for the info
So I’m working with a broker to get a GLE 350 for 36 months and I was wondering when is the earliest I would be able to turn in my car without getting hit with a penalty so I can lease a new Mercedes once market gets better?

Unless you’re selling it there will be penalty,
You’re thinking of pull ahead?

If we define “penalty” as simply costing you extra money rather than something explicitly called a penalty, the answer is 36 months, unless there happens to be a pull ahead going on then.

I see, so people turning them in early get the offer from the dealer to do so.
Thank you for the info.
You could potentially go with a 24 month lease on the GLE though it most likely result in a higher effective price per month.

The bulk majority of people turning them in early are pushing all their money to the center of the room and lighting it on fire. Most dealer turn in offers are nothing more than the dealer saying “let me roll in all your negative equity into the next lease”

Prior to the current status of the used car market, most dealers just rolled either the remainder of the monthly payments or the negative equity incurred from purchasing the vehicle from the leasing company into the next deal.
Most of the equity talked about on the forum today is positive equity due to used car prices being higher than ever.
Meanwhile, doesn’t Porsche have a 12 month pull-ahead for current leasing customers? I remember this was an offer by Porsche, but I am not sure if they still do this.

OP, I’m looking to buy the exact same model/year car. What you ended up buying/leasing?
