September 2008 Lease Rates for 09 Mercedes Benz CL, CLK, CLS, G, R, S and SL-Class

My Take: Rest of the MB line-up looks pretty bad. There is some lease support on the CLK350, but that’s about it. The rest of lineup boasts really low residual values and higher than average money factors.

September 2008 Lease Rate for 09 Mercedes Benz SLK-Class

My Take: The SLK is not terribly expensive for a $45k car (at base price). Compared to the 09 Audi A5, it is certainly cheaper. You can probably dip a bit below invoice considering the current economic situation. Drop the mileage to 10k or 12k and you will easily drop below $600 per month with your standard inception fees.

August 2008 Lease Rates for 08/09 Mercedes Benz Models

My Take: Here are the rest of the lease rates for the remaining 08/09 models on the Mercedes Benz lineup. As you can see, there aren’t too many cars that look like potential deals right now. The closest thing to a deal are the 2009 CLK350 Coupe and Convertible. This time around, I’m going to go a-la-cheap and try to keep the price low, meaning no options. Let’s see what kind of deal MB has for us here.

  • CLK350 Coupe
  • MSRP $46,800
  • Invoice $43,524
  • Standard inception fees + tax not included
  • Residuals posted are for 15K miles/year.

2009 Mercedes CLK350 Coupe
24 Month – Residual 56% of MSRP – .00065 Base Rate
36 Month – Residual 49% of MSRP – .00130 Base Rate
48 Month – Residual 41% of MSRP – .00130 Base Rate

24mo Payment: $767 at invoice, $905 at MSRP
36mo Payment: $658 at invoice, $754 at MSRP
48mo Payment: $588 at invoice, $661 at MSRP

ROFL, part of the reason why I had to go a-la-cheap with the CLK350 is because Edmunds doesn’t have additional data other than the base price without options. Oh well, it kind of worked out since I’m looking to see what would be the lowest price point for this particular car. It doesn’t look terrible, but that’s because this model is bone stock. Prices can only go north from this point on. Recommendation? PASS.

  • CLK350 Convertible
  • MSRP $54,800
  • Invoice $50,964
  • Standard inception fees + tax not included
  • Residuals posted are for 15K miles/year.

36mo Payment: $741 at invoice, $854 at MSRP

So do you lease a convertible for 48 months at around $700/month? OR do you lease a coupe for around the same for 36 months. Neither. PASS!

August 2008 Lease Rate for 08/09 Mercedes-Benz C-Class

My Take: 2008 C-Class should be off your “cars to lease” list, probably for the remainder of the year. If you want a C-class, look into the 2009 models. The price tag may be a big more for them, but the residual is higher and the money factor is lower than the 2008 models. The majority of people seem to like the Sport trim better than the Luxury, so I will be taking a look at the C300 Sport 4matic, which happens to have the better residual/mf combo.

Ugh! $720 for a metallic paint job. The C300 is a nice car, but I think MB is really making you pay for that three-pointed star on the grill. I’d be more willing to pay this kind of pricetag for the C350, not the C300. I would recommend looking elsewhere for comparable models. The IS250, TSX, A4 2.0T Q & 328i are looking MUCH better this month.

My Take: The vehicle enjoying the lowest MF on this list is the R350. The rich (wo)man’s station wagon, as I like to call it. These MB’s residual value are rather low overall, so they are hardly a bargain.

My Take: This probably my favorite MB sedan. This is also MBs bread and butter from what I understand. The MF is pretty low (by MB standards) on most of the E models, with residual values a bit higher than the CL, CLK, CLS models I posted earlier. As mentioned last month, expect a new E-Class roll in for the 2009 model year. It’s looking GOOOOOD! See below!

My Take: The rates didn’t seem to change much from June, with the CLK being the only car worth leasing at the moment. Unfortunately the residual is still ridiculously lower than expected for a MB. Imagine paying almost 50% of that CLK within two years! OUCH! At least the MF is low enough to ease the pain. If you want a MB convertible, this is probably not a bad time to jump into one. I think MBs are meant to be bought, which isn’t unexpected. With quality issues and super expensive maintenance and repair fees, not even MB wants their cars back.
