No deal at Mercedes Marin. I grounded my lease and now I lost my motivation. At Marin, I got to $199/month

27

199 is pretty good actually thatā€™s very decent. I would take it. Dealers will lose motivation as they meet targets.

Is this with Max MSDs?

28

Yes but I do not like the car at the price point. Plus there was $2k das and MSD so overall effective deal was a lot higher.

Oakland Mercedes said they can do $170/month plus fees das but it was contingent on GM approval.

The difficulty of the deal is negative residual on these terms. Mercedes financial would reject it.

29

what would the DAS be at Oakland ?

30

It would be similar to the lease hackr calculator for both marin and Oakland. The das is taxes first month and acquisition.

These deals are really limited but may get more traction as the month close out. YMMV but as OP suggested it needs straight to sales manager deals. Itā€™s lots of work as these dealers are not used to leasehckr mindset. Broker deals are very aggressive as well and may be worth the price for stress free experience.

Good luck. Iā€™m out of the negotiating table until the weekend. I grounded my lease so I lost out on the disposition fee of $595.

31

No they will still credit your disposition fee if you lease within a few months (2 I think). You just have to call mbfs and ask

If any brokers can line up something similar close to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, I would jump on this right away.

33

Same here. I am also a motivated if there is a similar deal in NJ.

Folks,

I am inundated with messages. Here are a few things:

  1. Signed is wrong on the MF. Its .00172 after MSDs. No way to fix it. Use the calculator.
  2. I have no way to get a dealer to give you a deal, get them to ship a car to you or anything else.
  3. As dealers hit their monthly and quarterly targets their motivation goes down.
  4. Best advice is to go to the store that has the car after sending a truecar inquiry and negotiating and being ready to truly lease the vehicle.

Good luck!

Awesome deal, i heard MBFS is less likely to refund MSDs than BMW? Is this true? Iā€™d even be open to slightly higher monthly if it meant less/no MSD. Iā€™m in central cal

38

I have not had any issues with either on over 7 leases. Also Audi has been no concerns. You can always do one pay lease and get the same benefit

39

I thought MSDā€™s are like deposits that will always get refunded. Why does it not get refunded?

Tried but no luck. Thanks OP.

I thought this as well but i heard something on an LH forum where they didnā€™t want to give em back.

43

I know prices are changing, a friend just signed $199 with 0 DAS at an obscure NorCal dealer.

44

Am jealous, here in TX havenā€™t heard of quotes less then $400 on an EQB.

45

Thatā€™s considered good deal already, even not as good as yours.

46

Yes agreed she took it the dealer only had 1 they wanted to get rid of. I didnā€™t realize the EQBs also came with free 2 years of charging!
