msrp $57600
premium pac 1
rear entertainment
alum running board with rubber
lease 48 months
$639 with 1560 down including 1st month payment
p.s was existing customer with ml350 2007 lease up .
is it good deal or bad (live in new york)
BTW, I am trying to go for 48 month, minimum drive off (around 1700) for about 530 including LA county sales tax. Although mine is 10k/year, your quote seem a little too high. If you are in socal, let me know.
And it will be released in about 4 months! Maybe you need to hold your horses and wait for a new model. When 2012 ML will be released - it will the highest possible residual value, so it actually may lease for about the same payment, if not better, as 2011 model.
The best lease for current 2011 ML is for 48 months. It means - you will stuck driving the old body for 4 years...Think about it...

1)ML350 AWD.. MSRP: 55110, negotiated price 52815, lease 27months, RV 61%, MF 0.00039, upfront 5104, 664.15/month(including..)
2) Bluetec- MSRP: 57505, negotiated price 55041, lease 27 months, RV 70%, MF 0.00134, upfront 3884, monthly 633.07 (including...)
I have a question.. why would there be a huge difference in the MF???
thanks...
Need to make a decision tomorrow and I feel like it's a great deal. BTW-MSRP was 55,475 and price was 49500.
Wasn't easy to get this, but I think it's a winner. Please advise.
Make sure that the bank fee is 795 and the mf is at buy rate.
I ended up getting e class for 520 month plus tax with minimum drive off.
what is the MAY MF and residual for 2011 ML350 4MATIC with P1 pkg - 36 mos and 12k miles and also for 48 mos and 12k miles? Thanks..
The numbers for an otherwise identical 48 month lease are .00026 and 46%.

P1 package, roof rack, running boards, RWD only (not 4matic) 42 mo. 12K mi/year, $2K down. MSRP $52615 . (allegedly I get a $3500 USAA rebate too). Not sure what the bottom line price is they are using, I was just sent the basics, waiting to hear what actual negotiated price is that they used, as they didn't send me the RV as a %...
MF .00087
RV $26271
$585/month.
The payment does not seem outrageous considering other posts but the MF seems so high.???? I want to negotiate down closer to $510ish.
Any thoughts?
MSRP $53,615, negotiated price $50,615. $3500 USAA rebate (given to USAA insurance members), net cap price $47615. MF .00085, residual 49%. No money down. $629/mo.
w/ $2000 down, $585/mo.
Want to pick up the car tomorrow AM, so any feedback would be great before then!
My above payment of $644 is with NO money down and all taxes included for FL. 42 mo. 12k/miles. MF .00087
Or can put $2000 down, again all taxes incl. same other terms. $585.
I am so confused about the difference from buying a 4matic compared to the 2WD.
Would someone be kind enough to let me know if the following is a good deal? Thanks
Based on tier 1 credit, selling the ML350W4 for $49,900 ( msrp $56005), 15,000 miles per year, $3,000 down and payment at $620 plus tax. the lease is for 33 months.

Another thing to consider, 3 months from now, brand new 2012 ML comes out. New generation, completely redesigned. So if you lease right now - you'll be driving the old body style for the entire lease!
New ML looks amazing. You can see the picture gallery here: 2012 New ML.
The latest and greatest is nice to have... but, you usually have to over-pay for it...

48 months, 15k/year, MSRP at $56,005.00. Drive off is $3000 and monthly payment after taxes and fees is $579.35. I think it's by far the best deal. I realize that the warranty is for 5 years & 50k, which leave me with 10k without the warranty, but I think I will be ok.
Here is my give back to the community.
I know the new ML350 model is coming out but this also means it is the best time to lease a 2010 ML350 now.
I am in SoCal and I got a great deal at Arcadia Rusnak. Ask for Payam there.
400 for 33 months/7500 miles. 4000 down. Premium navigation package. All fees and tax included!!!!!!!!
Lease disposition : 595 (If u lease another Benz then you do not pay that)
I own a Lexus HS250 so I get some discount for Benz Conquest program.
I am the most picky, shameless, and cheap buyer out there.
I have shopped around for SUV of Acura MDX, Lexus RX, Buick enclave and finally ML350. I like the truck space and brake technology of Benz.
Most sales I dealt with are very useless. They do not know much about the car other than being a message boy for price.
However, the Benz sales person I dealt with, Payam is really an exceptional sales person. He answered all the technical questions I want to know about navigation and safety issues. During the negotiation, he did his best to comfort me and my wife.
I used Internet bidding but then I found I still had to deal with the sales person and then manager. So I do not get a more "direct" access to by pass the sales layer to buy a car.
By the way, I also dealt with Car brokers. A car broker can deliver the car to your home and you dont pay until the last moment you pick up the car. So in a way you have nothing to lose.
But my sales person, Payam was willing to work the extra miles to help me match the car broker's price. Most importantly, he help me avoid the broker fee of $299. Compare with a tyical sales who often "up" the price first, Payam was exceptionally being honest. It saved time.
I still walked away from the deal because Benz did not want to get my 140,000 miles Celica for $4000 down payment.
Then I sold my Celica for 3800 cash and went back.
Of course being a shameless buyer I am, I walked out again from financing room when I heard that Benz will void the warranty if I do not use dealership for service......
Finally, when I confimed the truth about Benz's warranty, I went back to the dealership to seal the deal.
Before my car left the lot, I apprecaited Payam spent a lot of time to show me all the features of my new SUV. I purchased Lexus and Inifinity in the past but never experienced such good service from a sales person.
The design of the dealership is to catch us off guard and suck our payment as much as it can from our bottom line number. Nowadays even many sales are not playing "good cops" anymore. I am letting the sales make thousands $ of profit so I want them to always be gentally no matter what I say, bring me water, explain all car features in 1 second without looking or asking aronud, answer my email promptly, and comfort me when I am not getting my price.
I am glad that I met good one at the end.
I hope my post helps. Edmounds helps me a lot.
If you have any question, send me your email. I got 4 brands of SUV offers from many dealerships.....
Im in the market for a new car and I dont know anything about lease rates or incentives. I live in brooklyn, NY so we have a lot of leasing agencies here. I was quoted on a ML350 4 matic for 389.99 plus 2300 out of pocket for bank, title, first month, and tax. If this deal is not plausible I dont want them running my credit. This is also a respected leasing agency and know quite a few people that dealt with them. I just feel like this 389.99 is way lower than anything ive seen or read.
it is the basic ML350 4matic with no packages. I would wait for the 2012 but i honestly dont want to pay 600 a month for something that i can get for 390. Any input would be greatly appreciated.
