Published 2009/09/08 by G

logo_benz My Take: This is the remaining list of MB lease rates. I saved it for last mainly because they suck. With that said, don’t bother spending too much time filtering through these numbers, they look horrible any way you look at it.

2010 Mercedes Benz CL, CLS, R, S Lease Rates – August 2009

Published 2009/08/132009/09/04 by G

logo_benz My Take: The remaining 2010 MY Mercedes models are nothing to sing about this month. Low residual, high money factor pretty much puts them out of the auto leasing landscape. What is notable, however, is the presence of a Hybrid in the S-Class lineup. Looks like MB has decided to join Lexus in the luxury Hybrid market. I still wouldn’t lease them though.

UPDATE: CLS models are getting $3000 cash towards a purchase this month.

09 Mercedes Benz R, S, G Lease Rates – July 2009

Published 2009/07/15 by G

logo_benz My Take: This is like my list of rejected Mercedes Benz leases for the month. Some models try (like the S550), but for the most part they don’t try hard enough. I guess you could try leasing a S550 4matic, which looks like the better option in this whole list, but why? If you have the money to be looking at a S-Class, why just buy it?

09 Mercedes Benz S, SL, SLK Lease Rates – June 2009

Published 2009/06/10 by G

logo_benz My Take: I’m not going to bother too much with the S and SLK class estimates since they aren’t really high demand vehicles. Instead, I’ll focus on a very good “Lease-to-Buy” deal right now, the SLK300. The money factor is a measly 0.0007 for up to 48 months, making it a pretty good deal if you plan to buy the car at least end. Not even the 1.9% APR for 36 months can touch that. Definitely consider leasing the SLK300 for 4 years first then buy it out.

09 Mercedes Benz S, SL Lease Rates – May 2009

Published 2009/05/202009/05/20 by G

logo_benz My Take: The only car on this list that has a nice combination of residuals and money factor is the SL550. Problem is, it isn’t THAT nice. The money factor is low, which is nice. Unfortunately, the residual is a bit lower than I would personally like. You could argue that this is a good “lease-to-buy” candidate, though.

09 BMW S, SL, SLK Class Lease Rates – April 2009

Published 2009/04/132009/04/13 by G

logo_benz My Take: Couple quick things…I’m going to be skipping lease payment estimates on some of the more “expensive” models because quite frankly, I don’t think most people are here for that. You can still request a quick calculation from me by leaving a comment below each post. Main reason I’m doing this is to cut back on the amount of time it takes me to make one post, which will free me up for other important things. As for the cars, the SLK’s money factor is wicked low this month. .00007! With Mercs, I don’t generally car as much about the residual value since they are usually low 50s or high 40s for the 36-month terms, so you gotta hope and pray that the money factor is ultra low. Remember, the upside to having low residual value and low money factor is that at lease end, your buyout price is fairly low. Which is good if you love the car and want to keep it. No cash is available on the SLK300 right now but 0.9% financing for up to 66 months is there for those who qualify. MB Financial is really pushing the low interest financing this month which runs an extra 6 months compared to other captive banks. Just a FYI in case you are open to financing.

DO NOT LEASE

DO NOT LEASE 09 Mercedes Benz Lease Rates for January 2009

Published 2009/01/19 by G

MY TAKE: Here are the remaining Mercedes-Benz Lease Rates that I don’t recommend. Clearly, you can see why. The residual values are either terrible or the money factor is sky high. Then, you have a combination of both crap residuals and crap money factors. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to tell you why I don’t recommended the following cars. Keep in mind that these recommendations do not reflect my personal feelings towards these rides. I won’t say no to a C63 AMG or a SLK55 AMG. All I am saying is that if you plan on getting into any of these rides, buy them, don’t lease them.
