Already have another eqe sedan. Checked out cayenne and x7 today. Wife loved the x7 with captains chair option. It’s a lot nicer than eqs.
I’ve worked with Adam several times. He’s awesome.
Exactly what I’m doing.
I’m at 27 days. I’ll have car towed again to dealer saying same issue. lol
Hey guys,
I have been scouring the topics already posted on 2023 EQS 450 SUV leases. The maximum dealer discount one can achieve before any incentives seems to be around ~20%. However, there’s not many recent data points as far as I can see. Is ~20% still the absolute best ?
I was considering negotiating for ~28-30% before any incentives. Assuming the MSRP is ~$110K, that amounts to a dealer selling price of $80K. Given Model X is $80K - $7.5K Rebate, it’s not worth it for me to pay > $80K selling price on a EQS.
Is there even a remote possibility of ~30% dealer discount happening or is it just a pipe dream at this point?
Any help is appreciated. Thanks
Discounts have gone down on these. When the fleet moved from $4500 to $9500, it was a result of them making some dealer cash customer facing instead, so the extra $5k basically got pulled out of dealer discounts.
Lots of data points here:
I doubt any dealer will agree to these numbers, but you can always ask.
I think you already know the answer to that question.

Dealer will probably tell you to go buy a Model X then.

I’d start at 25-27%. As mentioned above, dealer discount has decreased so expect low to mid 20s to be your ceiling unless you strike gold.
Well can you lease a model X with 0.00008 MF?
Can you insure a model X with 1800/year?

With 2024 EQEs set to arrive in March, what sort of discounts can be expected for remaining 2023 inventory, which there seems to be plenty of? Thanks.

Hope the Chinese regulators catch it and issue a stop-drive order before it does, since all the American regulators are in Boeing’s pocket I guess.
Dealer said no but MBFS said yes. Who knows whose at fault
I didn’t actually ask but is there ever a chance MB would be ok with collateral exchanging an eqs lease to a gls? Technically eqs is 30k more than a gls msrp wise.
I’ve been looking around in SoCal as well and am only able to find a dealer to go 13% pre-incentive. Anyone have some realistic numbers for January?
How about putting you in a compatible 2024 EQS? Would you be interested and do you think they’d go for it!
Nah don’t have any confidence in reliability of their eq cars anymore.
