I think it was even worse than You are saying 
You put $3k down for 13 month lease.
Congrats on new deal.
Is it like $450/m range all in?
yes. its a great deal. regarding my last one, i was willing to put the 3k down on because i never anticipated making money selling the bolt.

Can you share a screenshot of the numbers if possible? You can remove VIN and dealer info of course. This will help to see where I can push my local dealer!
Hey guys! Wanted to share information regarding my EQS pull ahead. I returned my vehicle on Monday, 5 months early. I logged into MB today and my lease is already showing as closed and I have access to view my Autovin report that was evidently completed at the dealership.
None of the damage to the vehicle was listed as a chargeable amount! They take pictures with a ruler next to whatever damage you may have. I had small scuffs on one of the wheels and a decent sized scuff on the bumper but they were apparently small enough to not get charged.
If you’ve turned your vehicle in already, log in and look for your autovin report.

@brunot99 has been really helpful, much appreciated.
My frustration is with people who post false numbers and don’t share any proof (aka djrabbi) that’s what takes away from the community. He alleged he had a $68 a month effective deal locked down and turns out it was around $400 or so which many other members have been able to replicate before.

Not one pay. MSD’s. Hoping to see those in the mail next week.
How bad is this in your opinion? Two separate wheels have some rash.
And its not the windshield that has damage but the front glass grill/plate. Got it cracked in a minor accident. The problem is that the fender is also bent a bit.
and then there’s also a pretty deep scratch on the back.
So needless to say, I’m kinda scared shitless right now… I’m anticipating at least a few thousand in return fees…
I definitely drove it hard these past 18 months
I turned mine in a week ago and just got my final lease statement from Mercedes today showing they will be returning my MSDs. It said it will arrive via check.
Don’t eat so when you get nervous you won’t have to run to the bathroom
If you eat a big meal and get scared - good luck
I think they’ll let you slide if you re-up

I think the wheels they may let slide. Mine were in similar shape. Idk about the damage to the bumper though…
Did you just get this car from copart? Lol
I think your good if you get another benz, go to the dealership make a deal and finalize saying hey take my car with the damages if you want me to take your car

Dealers aren’t holding these cars for their inventory - they don’t care - they are so far below their residuals
Still the dealer mught have some sway
If not, the only option is bringing the car back really dirty so he can hide imperfections

that isn’t as far fetched as it may seem. I haven’t driven the car in a month and the dust has settled perfectly to hide a light but long scratch made while i was scraping ice last winter…
I never lease a Mercedes before it’s my first Mercedes that I’m leasing right now, but I never returned it yet. Don’t they come home and inspect it before you return the car to the dealership to let you know what’s the damages
