What strike me the most is the low price reduction. Back on May I leased a '19 GLA and the same dealer gave me a 14.8 discount from the MSRP. With the GLE they are firm in the price since day one

The GLA is a bust, that few people want (plus, 2019 model) The GLE is a hugely popular model (and, 2020 model)
Other than both being Mercedes, you couldn't pick two more different situations.
OOP $10559 ( incl 1st payment, 795 acq, 595 doc, DMV and other crap, incl $7500 - 10MSDs)
Monthly $678 includes 2 yr pre-paid maintenance Nj taxes in payment
36m/10K year
on paper seems like a good deal, but way off when using leasehackr calculator.
what am i missing?
What is the cap cost you are using for your payment calculation? What is the dealer using?
That's likely your difference.
Relative to MSRP, that's a decent payment, but without the details, it's hard to know for sure.
Michael, THANKS for your prompt reply. just spoke w the dealer. he said he is using $61888 as cap cost. now when i plug this into Leasehackr calculator i get a completely different story than before, and seems like my deal is amazong, but i suspect its not ( but still a good one?)
so the deal is
2020 GLE350
MSRP 66100 Selling price $58499 (11% off) cap cost used $61888

Hi, 1. can I get the MF and RV for a 2020 GLE 450? 36/10k, zip 98011. 2. Is the MSD accepted by all dealers? 3. My current GLE 350 lease term will end by this Dec, can I terminate the lease contract earlier without penalty by leasing a new GLE 450? Thank you

Could you please help w/ 2020 GLE 350 vs. 450, MF, RV, acquisition fee (94105)? Any info on avg MSRP % reduction for this area? Will fed rate cut affect the MF? (i.e. should I wait 2 weeks?) thanks in advance!

36/15 .00125 MF and 55% residual
$795 acquisition fee
No info on pricing. No info on possible reaction to the Fed rate cut (certainly won't matter for the next month) No info on what new program will bring for August.
Thanks so much, what would the MF/residual be for 36 mo/12k? If the dealer quotes me a MF 0.00177, is it safe to assume the difference is their markup?
Is all this dependent on geography? (big city worst price?). Would it matter much if I drive outside for 2 hours, or will all the MF/ #'s be based on where I live/ registration zip code?
Is MF negotiable? (Sorry if q's are dumb, I'm new at this!). If not negotiable, besides trying to negotiate the lowest MRSP, what other items are amenable to negotiation?

57% for 36/12
.00177 MF was the base rate for the 450 in June. If your quote was from June, the numbers have changed. If the number was from July, then it has been marked up.
The base rate we give is as low as you can go. If the dealer marks it up, that part of it is negotiable. Mercedes programs are national.
My lease ends at the end of August. Is it better to buy in August or sept?
I'd say you better start shopping now, so you don't end up without a car.
But, the current programs run through September 3rd. If you are asking if the programs will be better in September, we have no insight or guesses.
Historically do they offer better deals in sept? I would assume yes as it’s quarter end but... lease ends in August and I have an extra car that I can use.

And, negotiate $300 off the price, to offset the acquisition fee markup.
Lots of MB dealers in South Florida.

Playing around on their website the payment drops drastically when selecting 51 month, not sure if that is actually the case though.
That's likely your difference.
