    .00136 and 64% With your MSRP and Invoice prices, I get a payment of $505.37. Your quote of $500 looks pretty strong by comparison.

    New C300 4Matic here! located in VA.

    MSRP: $46,800 (panoramic sunroof, P1 luxury package, keyless go, blind spot, rearview camera)
    Invoice: $40,000 ($6k in capital reduction, turning in an old lease so got customer loyalty)
    Lease terms: 12k/yr., 36 mos. with maintenance package included.
    Residual: 63%
    Lease Factor: .00126
    Down payment: $2500 (includes first month payment)
    Monthly payment: $461.00 (includes all maintenance)

    They waived the last payment on my prior lease for a 2013 c300 4matic ($399) and the turn in fee ($595) for that lease. I went over the miles on my last lease also, so I do have to pay that at a rate of .25 a mile. What do you guys think of the new lease deal?

    Kyfdx and Michaell: Can either of you please provide residual and MF for 2015 C300 for 36 months 15k/year lease for current month? Are there any incentives for multiple security deposits on MB lease?

    Thanks you.

    .00136 MF and 60% residual

    Mercedes does offer MSDs, but only against the standard money factor, which is much higher. They won't do you any good on a model with a subvented rate, like this one.

    Hi, Kyfdx, Michaell and all:

    I received below quote from dealer today (March 10, 2015),
    2015 C300 4Matci
    MSRP $47930
    Lease 36 month/12000
    Down payment = $1000
    Monthly payment = $461 including tax

    I think the sales price is ~$43000.

    Is this a good deal? Thanks!

    If the CAP cost is the same as the sales price, I get $468/mo.

    I don't know the cap cost. I also mistaken the miles. The miles is 10000 miles per year. There is also an inception close to $600.

    Thanks again!

    10K/yr residual is 1% higher than 12K/yr residual.

    All Mercedes leases have a $795 acquisition fee.

    Hi, Kyfdx and Michaell,

    I received more information from the dealership. The sales price is $40637 ($7293 off MSRP $47930). Plus $795 acquisition fee, and $1000 down or $0 down. With MF 0.00136 and residual 63%, can you calculate for me for the lease monthly payment?

    Thank you very much!

    Hi, Kyfdx and Michaell,

    I received the document. Here is the summary,

    2015 C300 4matic, MSRP $47930, Sale's price $40637, Fees 509 (maybe $795 acquisition fee is additional).
    $1000 down, 12K miles per year. 36 month lease at $461 per month.

    This should be the most accurate now. Can you calc for me and let me know if there is any mark up?

    $386.36/mo before taxes.

    What state is this? Tax obligations for leases vary based on where you live.

    Also, get the dealer to give you the cap cost .. I suspect this number is higher than the sale price - make them explain the difference.

    This is KY, sale's tax is 6%. Isn't the lease tax 6%? Also, isn't the sale's price - down payment = the cap cost?

    Lease tax should also be 6% of the monthly payment.

    Cap cost is the sales price adjusted by the down payment but could also increase due to dealer or bank added fees and taxes.

    What is the current residual and MF (autopay tier 1 credit) for 2015 C300 4MATIC based on the following scenarios:

    24-month 15K miles

    hello. i have a current 2013 C300 sport lease. 7 payments of $454 left and only 10,500 miles on it. i wanted to enter a new lease for a 2015 C300.

    the offer:
    car MSRP is $50,000
    down payment is $1850
    ONLY 7,500 miles a year!
    monthly payment is $525 (including 8.875% NYC sales tax), so pretax payment is like $480.... i guess.

    am i getting a decent deal? problem is that this car has $1500 in options i DON'T want, like blind spot assist, wood interior trim, a spoiler (who the hell puts a stupid plastic spoiler on a luxury car?!??!!?) but it doesn't have leather, the option that i actually want. i'm so confused about what to do...

    24-month 15K miles - .00136 MF and 66% residual. Autopay MF is .00126. Add 2% for 12K/yr.

    No 27 month specials on this model. The sweet spot is the 36/15 lease with residual of 60%

    Forget the numbers for a minute. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't spend $500+ month on a car that wasn't equipped EXACTLY the way I want it.

    So, find the car, then work out the deal.

    Yes, but only on the standard MF, which is between .00180 and .00220. Any discounted MF from MB is excluded from MSD.

    Hi, Michael,
    Can you calculate least monthly payment according to following numbers?
    MSRP $47190, Purchase price $39897, Dealer's prep $389, Non Tax Fees $89, Net price $40375
    Inception fees $554, 36 months, $0 down, 10,000 miles, tax rate 6% in KY, acquisition fee is not included but will be paid at return.

    Does Inception Fee mean monthly payment? The dealer gives monthly payment at $465 including tax. I feel there is some mark up.

    Using the base MF of .00136 and the 36/10 residual of 63%, I get a payment of $414.51/mo with tax using your MSRP and net price.

    So yes, I would say there is some markup somewhere in your dealer quote.

    Is this kind of discount normal on 2015 C300 this time of the year? or your dealer is special?

    I'm getting $536.32/mo with your numbers. Is any of the $1972 at signing being used as cap cost reduction?

    I am not too sure but I am reading off the sheet he printed me.

    I will ask but I don't think so. As mentioned that includes first month of lease. 

    Is it a good deal as is?

    Hi, Kyfdx and Michaell,

    I received a quote today for a polar white color with cherry red interior sport package. Here is the summary,

    2015 C300 4matic, MSRP $52,640, Sale's price $44688, Registration fee $465, $500 first month payment, $995 for basic acquisition, $0 down, 12K miles per year. 36 month lease at $498 per month including taxes. Tax rate here in Mass is 6.25%

    Can you calc for me and let me know if there is any mark up?
    Thanks in advance!

    I'm getting $467.41/mo with tax

    wow, your calculation also includes my $1,960 due at signing right?

    That's a great price... even if you rolled in the $2100 in fees/taxes, you'd be around $500/mo. for a $52K MSRP vehicle...

    I assumed the $1960 went to taxes and fees and did not reduce the cap cost.

    I am emailing the sales guy back and forth today. Where do you see discrepancies in the numbers?

    I believe he said the $1973 included 1k bank fee, acquisition fee, 1st month and I forget what else

    I don't see your dealer's calculations, so I can't tell you where the difference is. I'm sharing what my calculator spits out, and assumed that the lower quote meant that the net sales price is somehow different than what you posted.

    The destination fee is included in the residual calculation thus increasing your payment about $25
