My Take: The CLK350 Coupe looks best on a 48-month lease. It still pricey since the residuals are so low, but the money factor is great. The convertible is better as a 36-month lease. I would avoid the CLK550s.
Can’t say I recommend them as lease, I would probably buy it since these cars lose more than 50% of their value within 3 years.
