2010 Mercedes Benz Lease Rates – June 2010

Published 2010/06/072010/06/08 by G

logo_benz My Take: Numbers are unchanged from last month, which were pretty much the same as the month before. I think there’s going to be a rate change for July/August so if you don’t like the quotes you are getting now, I would wait to see what July has to offer. There are a few models worth looking at due to the low money factor. These include: CLS550, ML450 Hybrid and to an extent, the SLK300 and SLK350.

2010 Mercedes Benz Lease Rates – May 2010

Published 2010/05/122010/05/12 by G

logo_benz My Take: Sorry to dump all the MBZ numbers in one post. I figure this would be the quickest way to get the info to you in one shot. It’s going to take some time to sort out, but at least everything right in front of you. There has been a drop in residuals on most MBZs so the bank adjusted their money factors to keep the payments similar to last months. If you where paying around $479 a month for a C300 Sport, you would be looking at around $478 this month. Other notable changes are the residuals on the popular E-Class and GLK. There isn’t any cash available right now, but good discounts can be had, so don’t feel too discouraged by the lack of rebates.

2010 Mercedes Benz S, SLK Lease Rates – March 2010

Published 2010/03/162010/03/16 by G

logo_benz My Take: SLK300 looks might good right now, just in time for the spring and summer season! Residual is BETTER than the TT and there is practically only about a buck worth of interest per payment. Can’t beat that! If you are considering the TT or any other luxury roaster, you should seriously consider the SLK.

2009 Mercedes Benz CLK, G, SL, SLK Lease Rates – October 2009

Published 2009/10/19 by G

logo_benz My Take: There are still some decent leases on leftover 2009 Mercedes Benz models, but you’ll have to be aggressive with the sale price. Take the SL550 for example. .00020 MF breaks down to about 0.48% APR, you can do a 10k mile per year lease and your residual should jump to 50%. Pretty solid if you ask me. The CLK convertibles and SLK300 and SLK350 should also be considered due to their resonable money factors. We’re nearing the end of the year, so whatever you see on the lot, is probably what you are gonna get, so if you find something you like. I recommend that you do something about it.

2009/2010 Mercedes Benz ML, R, CLK, SL, SLK Lease Rates – September 2009

Published 2009/09/08 by G

logo_benz My Take: I’ve picked out some of the following models as “decent” leases for the month. As usual, the leases with high residual values (.00200+) should be avoided. Those above .00100 may need some MSDs to make them a bit more affordable. Residual values for all Mercedes Benz are typically fairly low, so don’t expect any crazy-cheap leases. Don’t forget to do a little shopping for comparable models from other brands to see if its worth the extra cash to be seen in a Benz.

Here are some of the notable models you should probably look into:

ML350, ML350 4matic, R350, CLK Convertibles, SL550 and non-AMG SLKs.

I might consider doing away with “THE LIST” since there haven’t been CAN’T-MISS deals lately. The 2009 E-Class, 2009 3-series, 2009 Acura TL and 2009 C350 were probably the best all-around deals this year. Other honorable mentions are the G37, Accord and Camry. As you can see, most of the better deals occured in the 1st half of the year (which I consider the best time to lease), so you probably won’t be seeing great deals on the 2010 until sometime next year.

09 Mercedes Benz SLK Lease Rates – August 2009

Published 2009/08/132009/09/04 by G

logo_benz UPDATE: I have just been informed by Aaron McCroskey that there is $5000 cash on the SLK toward a PURCHASE for those who are interested.

My Take: SLK300 has such a low money factor, they might as well lend you the money interest free. This is an excellent “lease-to-buy” candidate since the APR is a measly 0.144%. The lowest APR you can get on a purchase is 1.9%, so a good idea would be to lease the car for 48 months, then purchase the car in full at lease end or refinance the remainder. This method isn’t for everyone obviously because you could get stuck paying a high interest rate on the remainder of your payoff, so plan accordingly. The SLK350 is not a bad option either, but not as good as the SLK300.

09 Mercedes Benz SLK Lease Rates – July 2009

Published 2009/07/142009/07/14 by G

logo_benz My Take: Low money factor alert! SLK300 MF is so cheap, they are practically giving it away. Seriously! You can do a 10k mile lease and boost your residual for 36 month to about 49%, and you are basically paying a few bucks every month on interest charges. This is also a pretty good Lease-to-Buy car too. Just go for the 10k lease over 48 months and pay off the car at lease end. Oh did I mention the $5,000 lease cash? Ahh yes! This beats out the Z4 AND the TT easily. So Cal residents can contact Aaron, all other can use Yahoo Autos to get quotes from your local dealers.

09 Mercedes Benz S, SL, SLK Lease Rates – June 2009

Published 2009/06/10 by G

logo_benz My Take: I’m not going to bother too much with the S and SLK class estimates since they aren’t really high demand vehicles. Instead, I’ll focus on a very good “Lease-to-Buy” deal right now, the SLK300. The money factor is a measly 0.0007 for up to 48 months, making it a pretty good deal if you plan to buy the car at least end. Not even the 1.9% APR for 36 months can touch that. Definitely consider leasing the SLK300 for 4 years first then buy it out.
