I was looking for a car, never thought about this option but thanks to Jed @AutoNinjas, I was able to grab this deal and I am pretty happy for the deal.
Deal was exactly as they listed, everything went smooth and I really was impressed for how everything was on point.
Again not my ideal car, I just give it as a present to the wife and gain some points there, she is happy.
My ideal color combo, beautiful ride. I sat in one over the weekend and unfortunately it’s too narrow for me. It feels very snug like you are going to be fighting over the armrest with the passenger.
Residual and MF are the same … base in my understanding is only the difference of the MSRP so the discount… but still it’s a difference of 120$ +/- trying to understand
Residual percentage is the same, but the depreciation amount is different, and that’s what you’re paying when you lease; that plus rent charge which will also be slightly higher for the higher amount borrowed to lease the vehicle.
You also had disposition fee in your calculator so it’s included in the total cost, but you don’t pay that until the end if you choose not to buy out your lease. It’s waived if you lease another MB as well.
I believe it’s any company on that list that is in the PEP program.
Your car is $58590. The ops car is $53064. So you pay more to lease it. You’re not missing anything. If you look at the breakdown, you’re paying $16k for depreciation, while the op is paying $14k.
