Want to thank all the Hackers dealing with my nonsense for over a month. I think we did well. It was kind of a curveball looking at this car but it is fun as hell! I know most of you will say why in the world did you sign a 48month lease but it was actually the sweet spot. We decided to trade my CLS in at the 24-36 month mark and I will take this car over. The wife can get her SUV as I am sure she will be pregnant by then.
2019 Mercedes-Benz C43 4Matic Saved Numbers on Leasehackr Calculator:

**Selling Price: $$59,292.7 (14% w/ PenFed)
**Monthly Payment: $599
**Cash Due at Signing: $2100
**MSD: 0
**Incentives: PenFed
We would have loved to do MSD but we haven’t gotten back insurance check from totaled car ($2320). It would have helped but it is fine I guess. We felt payment was below the 1% rule lol
Out of curiosity, how much more monthly was a 36mo lease?
48 months isn’t the end of the world, assuming Benz has a 4yr warranty like most of their competitors. However, between year 3 and 4 is typically when all the wear items need to be replaced.
Yup. I got into heated argument and canceled the deal but the owner of the dealership called me and straightened everything out. Waived 3 months payment for us and the manager I dealt with is in “hot water”. Got 3 months free, floor mats, comfort box and $250 voucher for mercedes lifestyle
Correct me if I’m wrong, but 4 year maintenance will cover a couple A and a couple B services through the life of the lease, correct? Wouldn’t it have been cheaper to just pocket that PPM money and take it to the local garage for 4 oil changes and 2 cabin air filters?
Apparently service B/D on AMGs are a bit more since it requires trans axle change. Overall yes the pricing would have been cheaper at a Indy shop but here in Boston, it was literally $300 cheaper. Just wasn’t worth my time or patience. Dealer has pick up and drop off service, loaners, and god knows what else they promised us from preventing leaving bad feedback.
