Thanks!

Thanks.
Also the dealer at MB told me they stopped the maintenance included in the lease. Enjoy those $500 oil changes..
Acura, Volvo, MB, Lexus are all out of their minds. And its not like anyone can lease an American made big suv for under 900
I agree about the 7 series. March 2009 the new 7 comes out. I have heard nothing but amazing things about it.
Tastes vary and that's good. I used to drive both X5 and 750 but once I tried and leased MB I won't leave the brand. Comparably speaking, and in my opinion only, the ML blows it away in looks, safety and luxury as well as smooth ride, not so "trucky". X5 looks the same as it always has. The one thing X5 has that's a nice benefit is the extra seating.
BMW is lagging in re-design. I had the 2003 750 and liked it at the time but the new one coming out looks way worse-like a 5 series. Now that car vs. the S-class is a straight up joke. No comparison. The S is a beast and beats anything out there at that pricepoint and looks phenomenal. The new E looks to be following suit and should be amazing so am waiting for that as next buy at this point.
The new 7 should be interesting, they were doing everything to get the old ones out of the door. They tried to get me out of my 530 early and into one about 6 months ago. Now the dealers are saying that the new 7 will be priced the way it should be so, it better impress in today economic climate.
The extra seating is not great in the x5. As a matter of fact, we opted not to get it in my wife's car as you can't really put a regular car seat in the 3rd row, so it defeats the purpose for us. At the end of the day you need to be happy with what you have, and for what is out there in terms of SUV's and the ridiculous pricing, the X5 seemed like the right move. I guess time will tell.
Are the dealers discounting them as close to invoice as they are with the ML350?
Any help is appreciated!
When negotiating your lease on this truck, make sure to take the $2,000 cash incentive that Mercedes is currently providing on it into account.

Do you have April 09 MF & Res on the 2009 ML350 4 Matic at 12K/36?
Thanks.
Thanks
Mercedes' April lease program was scheduled to run through yesterday April 30th. Many manufacturers have extended their April programs through May 4th. I'm not sure if Mercedes has or not. Either way, it's scheduled to introduce a new program at some point over the next couple off days. I would be happy to give you an idea of what it is like if you check back with me.

I probably should have added to that, in April Mercedes-Benz was providing a $2,000 cash incentive on leases of the '09 ML350 through Mercedes Finance.

Please post money factor and residual for May for ML350 4Matic. I'm interested to get 36 months lease with 10K. Any incentives?
Thx
Do you have the lease factors/residuals/cash incentives for May for the ML350 and the Bluetec ML320? Looking at 36 months/15k miles. Thanks!
Money factor & Residual based on...
ML350 4MATIC
36 months, 10K miles
Current leasee of two BMWs and am coming off an X5 lease -- should I expect any consideration from MB b/c of this?
Thanks!

ML320 CDI Arctic White, Black MB Tex interior,Sunroof Pkg.
PO1 pkg.; running boards, heated seats, Ipod adapter
MSRP 54,695
Payments : $600/month including tax ( lease)
36 months 10K a year.
$2500 out the door.
Purchase price: $46,900
Got it from Prestige MB in North NJ.
Let me know what you think guys.
How did you get $4000 under invoice?
Also, what was the MF and residual?
Thanks!
Residual was $30,000
I told them I just want to pay $600/month and 10k mile for 36 months and see if they can offer me one. My salesman did everything he could to help me out and
It was a quick transaction I was there and close the deal within 30 minutes.
Remember also with ML 350 gas they have $2000 lease incentive.
I think they probably applied that with my diesel lease.
If you are planning to buy they have 0.9% APR financing offer, email me craymart2002@yahoo.com so I can give you my salesman's name.
Look at the older post and you can see people are getting almost $8000 off MSRP on the ML 350s. If you tell them you are ready to buy and close the deal they will give what you want, it is a buyers market anyway.

ML350 BLK/BLK (in-stock)
MSRP $43,865 includes Premium 1 & Heated Seats Package
12,000K Miles / 48 Months
Initial Amount Due: $1540.00 (First Month Payment & Bank Fee & Transfer Fee)
Monthly Payment: $665.00
MF .00036 RESIDUAL 39%
It seems to me that the person in NJ with the BlueTech320 got a better deal.
Any opinions?
Was it .00147 or .000147 for the MF? Makes about $100 a month difference.
Thanks for the info, by the way- I can't find the May numbers anywhere else right now, so the info on your deal is very helpful.
Here's the lease deal I am looking at and need your opinion...
ML350 BLK/BLK (in-stock)
MSRP $53,865 includes Premium 1 & Heated Seats Package
12,000K Miles / 48 Months
Initial Amount Due: $1540.00 (First Month Payment & Bank Fee & Transfer Fee)
Monthly Payment: $665.00
MF .00036 RESIDUAL 39%
The BlueTech 320 numbers were not as good and on Long Island there is a pretty good separation between diesel cost and regular gas.
Is this a good deal?
MSRP $53,195
Cap cost $47,983
Bank fee $895
Residual 39% 20,746
MF .00067
tax 8.62% $2857
1st pmt + fees = $945 monthly pmt= $692
Salesman said can go a few hundred lower on cap cost, which would lower payment to about $675..
I'm also looking at a Lexus GX. That deal is posted on the Lexus forum.
Can I do better than $675/mo on the ML350 ?

The numbers for an otherwise identical lease of an '09 ML320 are .00147 and 53%.
The ML350 has a special $2,000 cash incentive available on leases of it right now, but this cash is not available on the ML320.

Mercedes-Benz Financial's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2009 ML350 4Matic with 10,000 miles per year are .00067 and 48%, respectively.
Even though Mercedes is not providing any conquest cash on this model, it is providing a $2,000 cash incentive on leases of the ML350 to all customers. Make sure to take this cash into account during your negotiations.

I would like to know if there are special lease incentives for June 2009, for the ML 350. Thanks.
In addition to this special lease money factor, Mercedes is providing a $2,000 cash incentive on leases of this model. Make sure to take this cash into account when negotiating the capitalized cost for your lease.

Do you have the money factor and residual value for a 48 month lease of the 2009 ML350 4WD with 15k per year?
Thanks
