My Take: Bummer, almost a year later and the GLK is still a bad lease. I’m giving them until 2011 to improve things, that’s when my G37 lease is up. LOL. In other news, GL450 seems to be pretty decent if you ask me. Residual still fairly high and the money factor is pretty decent, a fairly low 3.24% APR. They are also running a special right now on the 2010 GL450 where the dealer contribution is about $2,325. I’m not seeing any rates on the 2009 models, but there is $10,000 in cash you can use on leases or purchases right now. Looks like MB’s attempt to clearance some of the outgoing models. Worth a looking into if you ask me.

Bummer puts it well G. I really want a GLK right now and I was hoping for a miracle in either August or Sept.
No hope I guess.
@russ yeah, I’m gonna wait it out personally. It’s bound to come down one of these months.
