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 Incentives
Lease rates provided by LeaseCompare.com
Updated: Added Altima and Murano numbers. Hopefully some of you can take advantage of it this weekend. The Altima numbers look very good. Murano, not so much. My Take: Just a little disclaimer here…I will be posting all things Nissan on this page. The title will change as I add more lease rates for other Nissan vehicles. Now lets move on to the Maxima! There are some incentives available on the Maxima right now, making it a very attractive lease. Look for $2000 retail cash plus another $500 customer cash. You can’t use the $2000 on the special financing APR 0.0% – 1.9% that NMAC is offering, but it should qualify for the lease. The lease rates got inflated a bit, so your lease should look even better than March/April. Don’t bother looking for a S model at this point. Not only will you have a hard time finding one, but it’s also not worth the effort since the SV is already looking very attractive.
My Take: I recommend buying the CX-9 due to the 60 month 0% APR offer going on right now. The cash isn’t available for leasing and the loyalty cash probably won’t apply to many of you. Skip the lease, buy the car.
My Take: Some of the lease incentives are still in place for the month of May so make sure you factor that into your calculations. I think there are some good deals to be had here, so call your dealer and get a sale price quote and crunch your own numbers to see if it comes close to theirs. My sister is looking to lease a family hauler, so I might recommend the Odyssey to her since the numbers look pretty good and there is $1500 in cash available. 
My Take: Incentives are available on leases for the TL and TSX right now. AHFC generally doesn’t offer marketing cash on leases, but they have been seen late last year (probably to boost sales in this weak economy). This is good news for us because the cash discount is pretty big, enough to cover drive-off costs. Anyway, I really enjoyed my Acura lease, as you can see on my latest post about 
My Take: Looks like the numbers from March/April remain the same for May. I wouldn’t be surprised to see some changes come June, but you never know. There is some cash floating around, so be sure to check out the incentives link at the bottom of the page. Sonata numbers look attractive, Genesis numbers, not so much (but there some cash to help offset costs). The reviews are mixed on the new Sonata, so I’m not going to sit here and recommend this as an awesome car. The car looks great and the lease looks great as well. Is the car reliable? Does it drive well? No clue. Feel free to check it out if you are curious.
My Take: Overall, I am unimpressed. Residuals may be above average, but MFs are too high for my liking. Not much in terms of rebates either (unless you are in the military). However, I believe decent amount of discounts can be had to make up for the lack of customer cash due to Toyota’s recent struggles.
My Take: Lease rates remain pretty much the same as last month. Most models are enjoying loyalty cash from IFS this month, so factor that into your calculations if you (or a family member) are an existing IFS customer. IFS’ marketing cash cannot be combined with special financing or lease, so don’t bother asking for it.
