(The marketplace is not allowing posts, so I wanted to try here) We're preparing to move abroad and are putting our beloved B up for sale. 2017 MY Mountain Gray metallic with Sahara Beige MB Tex interior & Black Ash wood trim (this is the most beautiful combo, and kid-proof, even though it's...

Hi Jeff, Don't back down. Try another dealer. We tried doing the same thing when our lease was up. About a month before our lease was up we got stuck in a loop: dealer "talk to MBFS" - MBFS "talk to the dealer." Finally as the lease ended, we went to our original salesperson who leased us our...

@JeffRay, The purchase price was before taxes and registration, and there was a $150 purchase option fee, plus $650 lease end fee in the contract. We had a 24 month lease, so that may be why the residual was so much higher than yours. When we returned our 2014, the residual was pretty spot on...

Our lease on my wife's 2017 came up last month. It's gray with the white MB-tex interior, which my wife fell in love with. I had her try the Kia, Leaf, Golf, Bolt, Model 3. Nope, she wanted hers. Our residual was $23,547, which is considerably more than KBB. Great if we were to give up the...

Just stumbled on this on VW's German site: "Vorläufiger Abschied vom Phaeton. Der Phaeton wird nicht mehr produziert und ist daher nicht mehr bestellbar. Die nächste Generation des Phaeton wird mit einem langstreckentauglichen, vollelektrischen Antrieb und zukunftsweisenden Assistenzsystemen...

I had noticed, much to my dismay, that our US spec car has red rear turn signals. I scoured through videos of European spec cars, and finally found one brief shot of the rear making a turn with the amber light. Went outside to look at the tail lights today, and sure enough, all of the amber...

We just signed on a '14 lease on Monday. Black/Black MB tex, P01 Premium Package, Radar recuperative system, Walnut Trim, Blindspot assist, and Multimedia. My wife really wanted the tan/beige interior, but I called about 20 dealers in the SF Bay area, and even on the east coast. Nada. The...
