My Take: The residual values on the E-Class are questionable at this point, but the money factors look good (0.432% APR on the E350 Sport). That’s literally just a few bucks of interest every month. There is $6000 in dealer cash available for those who finance through MB Financial, so make sure to take that into consideration when you make your offer to your dealer. I think the E350 Sport is an excellent Lease-to-Buy candidate since most of your money is going towards the car instead of the interest. With the 2010 Es rolling into dealerships now, it looks to me that MBZ may start trying to move them.
