MB numbers remain the same as last month. The C250 coupe is getting a lot of attention lately. The residual value is so high, it really helps offset the high money factor. Dealers have been selling the car for about 4-5% off MSRP. Keep in mind that you can get the car at 7% off MSRP via European delivery, which may or may not be worth it depending on your preference. If you can make a short vacation out of it, picking up your car in Europe wouldn’t be such a bad thing, specially when you can get an extra 2-3% off the sticker price. Another HUGE perk I’d like to point out is the $2000 loyalty cash that is available to those of you with active MBFS loans. Check out my calculation below for an example of what payments would look like in a “best case” scenario (without having to pick the car up in Europe).

Here is a sample calculation based on TrueCar’s Southern California sale price and do not include local taxes. Please note that your dealer calculations may vary due to local fees/taxes.
