[randomguy25]

Hi All,

I am new to this forum and I am very interested in leasing a B-Class. I received the following quote from a NorCal Dealer? Is this a good Deal? How to calculate what is the MF from this deal?

This is for a fully loaded 2015 with 1542 drive off amount and 12k miles/yr.

Appreciate your insights.

Thanks!

There is no much stat on 2015 model
National deal lists $3K discount off MSRP (which is in-line with your deal)

I think, in CA, you can get better deal...

I'd say it's a decent deal, but there's probably room for you to improve.

I purchased a 2015 with a few more options than yours (just over 49k MSRP) a few months ago and here's where I ended up:

Total out of pocket was $1,000
Monthly payment w/ tax included is $375.
12,000 miles per year.

I believe my adjusted cap cost ended up just under 33K.

Cppike,

When you say $1000 out of pocket - does that include Tax, Title, Doc Fee and Registration? or is that your down - payment ?

What is your drive off amount?

Thanks,

Yeah, total out of pocket means the complete amount that I spent (i.e. tax, license, first payment, etc.).

I wrote a check for $1,000, with a monthly of $375 and 12k miles per year and a $49,500 2015 B-class.

Wow, it really helps to share information. I think I paid $2k too much in December 2014, after trade-in value. But I feel like the dealer gave me about $2k more than what my trade-in was worth -- (bad CarFax) so I guess it all evens out.

If I were leasing today, I would be looking for a LOADED car, (mine was $53k MSRP) -- you want all the technology. definitely with Range Package (2014 Models). For a loaded car, the median number seems to be $3500 down, $375 a month. If you beat that one either side, or you are getting a car with MSRP of $3500 less, take off $100 a month or $3500 off the money down (zero down)

Has anyone done a zero money down, $275/mo lease on a $49,500 MSRP car? That's a double discount.
