    .00077 MF and 56% residual.

    At those numbers, I get $584/mo., but there has to be some more tax rolled into the payment, because $228.70 is not enough to cover all the tax, is it? (trade-in credit?).

    $10,400 off a new 2016 is amazing. I would certainly lease at that price, rather than buy. But, still show you about $30/mo. off their quote.

    Same MF but 65% residual for 24/10. Using your prices, I get $524/mo + tax for the base MF of .00066, $536/mo with the marked up MF of .00078

    Thanks...If I use Mercedes auto pay and 6 extra security deposits what would the payment change to?  Thanks for all of your advice and comments!

    Not 100% certain that MSD will be allowed on a subvented MF ... it might, it might not.

    Autopay reduces the MF by .00010 ... $515/mo + tax on base MF, $526/mo + tax on increased MF.
