How does this deal look? I'm thinking about pulling the trigger tomorrow.

2015 C300 4Matic Sport

MSRP: $50,315
Sales Price: $42,942
Term: 36 months
Residual: 61%
MF: .00109
Sales Tax: 8.5%
Miles: 10,000

Drive Off: $499
Monthly Payment: $499 (includes tax and pre-paid maintenance)

how much are they quoting you for per paid maintenance? Did you get wheel/tire wear too? They like to nickle and dim you on the wheels when you return the car.

Does numbers (money factor, residual ) change for leasing a pre owned 2015 ? 3 yr lease, 10k miles. thanks

We don't have any lease information on pre-owned vehicles.

Has it been titled, or is this a loaner or executive demo?

Dealer replied.

Service loaners. They are 2015's and have around 3000 and 5000 miles. These are pretty basic at this payment but do come with the rear view camera and heated seats. The net cap cost is around $33,300. The money factor is .00119 and the payment would go up about $15 per month for the 10,000 mile per year lease.

Is there numbers for 2015 service loaners? Since it's already a year old I would probably want them to roll in Service plan and tire/wheel protection.

A service loaner probably uses the new car program, with a reduction of residual to account for the current mileage.
.00119 MF and 61% residual for 36/10.

As noted, that's a pretty basic C300, at that low of an MSRP

@btcutter That is a pretty solid deal with the numbers provided, you way have a little more room anywhere up to $10 more off a month.

What happened with the other vehicle?
The 2015 one looks good, personally, take the 2015 you'll get a much better deal unless they have incentives on the 2016..

Same car just deciding to buy it instead of lease. I feel like walking on glass when I lease. It's not really my car.

MF is marked up from the base of .00154 ... but, the large discount from sticker mitigates that to an extent.

What is the net cap cost - are you rolling in the fees to the selling price?

Fees were not added to price.

As is, your numbers give me a payment of $460/mo ... so, your net cap cost must be higher than the selling price.

Using the base MF will save about $23/mo on the payment.

I know this is a lease board but didn't see where I should post this. I am looking to buy a 2015 C350. MSRP is $54,345. Just going to pay cash. Wondering what price I should expect. They are quoting $50,000 plus $150 doc fee and $400 license and title. Plus tax of course. The Edmunds build and price tool says invoice is about $50,500 but it says "true market value" is $48,000.00. If I need to post this elsewhere please let me know and thanks for your help.

Here is fine. We don't get many members looking at the C350, though.

I am looking to lease a 2015 C300 in Arizona. Are the numbers for 36 (or 39) months, 12,000 or 15,000 miles out yet?

Also, the dealer suggested I look at the loaner vehicles since they are running "great" deals on them right now. Didn't say what the deals were. Anyone have any experience with that? I've been leasing cars for 15 years, but have never considered the loaner vehicle before.

Thanks in advance!

Hi - can you post Dec rates on 2016 C300 4matic sport for

Also, is there a MF reduction for auto pay and if yes, how much?

Thanks

.00118 MF and 60%/58% residual for 36mo, 12K/15K/yr.

Leased loaners twice from BMW and got great deals, both times. But, it's not "automatic". Bargain as hard as you would on a new one. They seem to have more room to move on the loaners. If your savings aren't at least $50/mo. over a new one, then don't bother.

Any incentives on leftover 2015 C300 inventory? There's great incentives on 2016, but I can't find anything on 2015.

Your dealer might have Winter Event Certificates they could use, starting December 9th. $2250 on the 2015 C300, if so.

I heard BMW does have discounted Money Factor with multiple monthly security deposit. Does MB have a similar discount across dealerships? If yes, what is the name for that?

MSD is available for MB as well, but we believe it's only available on the MF standard MF of .00200-.00220

Does that mean if the MF is lower than .00200 (say current MF for 2016 C300 is .00152), then MSD does not help to lower the MF further down?

That is our understanding, but there have been some posters on the MB discussions who have worked with dealers who allow MSD on supported (ie less than .00200) MF

That is interesting. I was thinking MBFS sets up the policy for all the dealers. Anyway, good to know and will try to negotiate with dealers about this.
