Merceds GLA Lease Question

Can I get the Residuals and MFs?

I'm trying to see what I can expect to negotiate on a higher-trim GLA than the advertised specials here ( http://www.mbusa.com/mercedes/special_offers/current#class=GLA ). It looks like about $30 monthly for every $1000 of capitalized cost. Using Edmunds True Market Value, it appears that $3000 off MSRP is reasonable, so I am using the MB website lease payment calculator with that $3000 savings estimated by Edmunds as the "down payment" to estimate what a reasonable deal would be. I don't actually plan to put anything down other than TTL.

Am I on the right path?

    What lease term and how many miles per year?

    For a 36 month lease, every $1000 saved on the purchase price will reduce your pre-tax monthly payment about $28/mo.
