can someone post GLE350 4Matic SUV December 10k/36mo Residual and Money Factor (is this the best residual to term)? Also for TX what is base tax rate and total rate, and are taxes due at signing or folded into the monthly payment? Thanks!
I would like to share another offer. The sales told me that the MF is 0.00125 for 36/12k and 10% discount. However, looking at the quote, I saw that there are a lot of additional fees (official fee and phantom footprint). What would be that? Is their calculation correct?

.00050 and 56%
I believe sales tax is 6.25%.
You can decide to pay the taxes up front or add them into the lease payment; we recommend the latter.

Nice discount and base MF are both good things
I would challenge the "shipping" line item - if that is the destination fee, it is already part of the MSRP and it's disingenuous to break it out.
I would ask for a breakdown of the "official fees", as well.
For a 36/12 lease, those prices give me a payment of $1052/mo, with $0 down. That's a $4500 gap to the payment they've quoted.

Thank you. I would challenge that. Do you think it is a good idea to put MSD? Do I also need to buy their protection plan (tire protection, end of lease protection, etc)?

Yes to MSD
No to any sort of wear and tear or tire/wheel protection; just a profit center for the dealer.
I just used a car broker and he was able to get me a decent deal on a custom ordered 2018 GLE 350. MSRP 61,060.00 with a 11.5% Discount from MSRP. 10k miles, 36 month lease with 3k down. Monthly payment 650 including taxes and fees. Residual value $34,173.00
located in San Pedro (Port of Los Angeles), California
What would be the acquisition fee for MB in California? As I've been reading a lot, I believe it is $795. However, one dealer told me that in California the acquisition fee is $1095 and $795 is the national average. Can you verify this?

From my experience, don't use broker car broker. You can get a super great deal by emailing all dealers in your local area, i believe LA has tons of MB Dealer. They will fight each other to give you a huge discount (up to 13-15%). I think there's two rules to get a good lease: 1. The bigger discount the better + base MF 2. Never put down payment. Just pay drive off fee (first month payment + DMV + licences + etc fees)

The base acquisition fee is $795. Anything more is a markup from the dealer to put more money in their pocket.

Can you confirm if the MF is .0005 and 10 MSD max is .0007 reduction? Is the MF supposed to be .0050

Yes.. that's it.. .00050
Of course, at .00050, you couldn't take a .00070 reduction. You'd have to put up fewer MSDs.

Could you please answer or share your thoughts on a few questions:
MF on a 2018 GLE350 4 matic 36/15 lease in PA (dealer says residual is 55%)
Do you recommend MSD’s how much does each MSD cost?
Is it better to roll acquisition fee into lease?
What does autopay save you?
.00050 and 53%; 55% is for 36/12 Yes, use MSDs; each MSD is the monthly payment, rounded up to the next highest $50 Yes, roll acquisition fee into the lease payment We've had other posters tell us (with confirmation from MBFS) that AutoPay has been discontinued
Ordered a 2018 GLE 43 AMG SUV. Truck will be in next week. Dealer came back with a MF of .00095 with a max of 10 MSDs. I added back the .0007 msd and came up with .00165. Is the .00165 is the base MF for the GLE43 AMG SUV? Also, my monthly payment is $870, dealer asking for $9500.00 security deposit. I thought payment was rounded up to $900 x 10 msd = $9000 security deposit. Please confirm. Thank you.

I confirm .00165 as the base MF for the 2018 GLE43 for December.
Could be the pre-MSD payment is used to determine the size of the MSD.
Hi, Can I get MF and residual in Texas for a 2017 and 2018 GLE63 SUV and Coupe at 39/7500 and 39/10k? I didn’t find anything recent or relevant in the 2017 thread, but wondering if the programs are the same for the remaining 17s as they are the 18s. Many thanks.
i was able to negotiate a good deal I think but have several questions, the msrp on a 2018 GLE 350 4matic 66,570, cap 56,585, 36/12, 55% residual, Payment 706.28, lease aq is 1095 not rolled in at this point and he won’t address the mark up... that is why I figured dealer marked up money factor.. can you help me calculate?
Also I have a friend who works at Mercedes-Benz and gave me a control #, can I use this discount on top of what I already negotiated? The form says 12.25 percent off MSRP but I’m not sure if that allows for further negotiation?

Go ahead and post your 2017 question in the relevant thread.
No 39 month residuals from MB; 36 month residuals are listed below.
2018 - standard MF (around .00200-.00220) and 53% / 52% (SUV) or 54% / 53% (Coupe)

I believe that if you get an employee discount, that is a fixed discount from sticker and cannot be negotiated further.
What state and tax rate is used to get the quoted payment?
Wow, appears money factors and residuals are not what they used to be. I remember when you could lease most of their 120k vehicles for something like 1300/Mo, now it’s around or above 2k. I could lease a new Aston’s DB11 for about the same as I’d pay for a new GLE63.

For a 36/12 lease, those prices give me a payment of $1052/mo, with $0 down. That's a $4500 gap to the payment they've quoted.
