    Hi there,

    Am looking to see if this is a decent deal...

    Model: C300W4

    3yrs Service: $1280
    MSRP: $53755
    Cap Cost: $50500
    Term: 42
    Monthly: $624
    No money down

    I think the MSRP is high because they are charging separately for the Night edition and the AMG line, when on Edmunds own tool I see a Night Edition/AMG Line combined package for $2400 which is $850 less than the individual packages listed on the sheet they provided me.
    Anyway, thoughts on the deal?

    Thank you.


    What is your location? 08542
    How many miles per year? 12k I think it isn't mentioned on the information
    $0 down or $0 out of pocket? $0 down, not cap cost reduction
    Does the $50,500 include all possible fees and taxes? Taxes and fees are paid

    The MSRP is the bottom line of the factory window sticker, inclusive of destination charge and all options and packages.
    How many miles per year? 12k I think. It isn't mentioned on the information the dealer sent.
    $0 down or $0 out of pocket? $0 down, no cap cost reduction.
    Does the $50,500 include all possible fees and taxes? Taxes and fees are paid at inception, so that is just the cost of the car.
    So, how much is due at signing?

    Confirm the mileage.
    2365.90 is due at signing.
    10k/year

    10k/year
    .00043 and 51%

    With the MSRP and cap cost given, I calculate $583/mo.

    Is the tax part of the $23xx due at signing, or has it been added to the cap cost?

    Either that, or the MF has been marked up by the dealer for extra profit.

    Thank you. The numbers did seem off. I asked for the money factor and they never provided it.

    Can anyone comment on this deal?

    MSRP $46,495
    $42,495 Negotiated price
    2021 C300 RWD
    48 months/10,000
    $499 month including tax for 48 months
    $5,000 in MSDs (refundable security)
    $1,000 down, which includes 1st month payment, so just $500 out of pocket.

    We currently have a 2018 GLC with just 22,000 miles (30,000 allowed) and the lease is ending at the end of May. They will be taking this car as a trade-in and making the final payment. The car is being valued at $28,500 and it's residual value is $25,000. So essentially they're crediting us back $3,500 for this car and knocking off an additional $500, for a total discount of $4,000.

    Is the $5000 on top of that?

    Yes, the $5,000 refundable security deposit is on top of that. Is this a bad deal?

    .00041 and 46%
    No incentives

    So, the MSDs don't make sense. Each one lowers the MF by .00007, but you can't go below 0.

    Ergo, you can only have a maximum of 5 MSDs, and since the amount of each one is the monthly payment rounded up to the next highest $50, you should only be spending $2500 on that.

    I'd question the dealer hard about how they are applying the other $2500 that you think is going to MSDs. Could be more cap reduction, which we advocate you skip, in any case.

    Same with the trade equity - have them cut you a check for any amount over the trade balance.

    Your out of pocket should only be the first payment and the registration / title costs.

    Ask them for a quote with 5 MSDs (lowering the MF to .00006) and $1000 out of pocket.

    I would guess they are marking up the rate (for extra profit). Then, putting it down to the minimum, by having you make the full number of MSDs. Basically, making extra money by having you put up an extra $2500 in MSDs.

    In the long run, the cost to you is minimal. (foregone interest on the $2500). But, given that, the discount isn't as good as it should be.

    Do you have the adjusted CAP cost?

    In the long run, the cost to you is minimal. (foregone interest on the $2500). But, given that, the discount isn't as good as it should be.

    Do you have the adjusted CAP cost?
    I'm estimating the adjusted cap cost at $42,775. I think the payment should be closer to $481 per month w/tax, $500 down for docs etc..., 1st payment of $481 and $3,000 in MSDs. What do you think?

    Can anyone comment on this deal?

    MSRP $46,495
    $42,495 Negotiated price
    2021 C300 RWD
    48 months/10,000
    $499 month including tax for 48 months
    $5,000 in MSDs (refundable security)
    $1,000 down, which includes 1st month payment, so just $500 out of pocket.

    We currently have a 2018 GLC with just 22,000 miles (30,000 allowed) and the lease is ending at the end of May. They will be taking this car as a trade-in and making the final payment. The car is being valued at $28,500 and it's residual value is $25,000. So essentially they're crediting us back $3,500 for this car and knocking off an additional $500, for a total discount of $4,000.

    So, $500 cash and $4000 of trade equity.

    Is the $5000 on top of that?
    Yes, the $5,000 refundable security deposit is on top of that. Is this a bad deal?
    Sorry, one additional question - what body style is this for?
    It is a C300 sedan rwd. The sheet says C300W 4dr sedan.
    .00041 and 46%
    No incentives

    So, the MSDs don't make sense. Each one lowers the MF by .00007, but you can't go below 0.

    Ergo, you can only have a maximum of 5 MSDs, and since the amount of each one is the monthly payment rounded up to the next highest $50, you should only be spending $2500 on that.

    I'd question the dealer hard about how they are applying the other $2500 that you think is going to MSDs. Could be more cap reduction, which we advocate you skip, in any case.

    Same with the trade equity - have them cut you a check for any amount over the trade balance.

    Your out of pocket should only be the first payment and the registration / title costs.

    Ask them for a quote with 5 MSDs (lowering the MF to .00006) and $1000 out of pocket.
    Thanks for the quick responses! I will pursue this tomorrow.
    I would guess they are marking up the rate (for extra profit). Then, putting it down to the minimum, by having you make the full number of MSDs. Basically, making extra money by having you put up an extra $2500 in MSDs.

    In the long run, the cost to you is minimal. (foregone interest on the $2500). But, given that, the discount isn't as good as it should be.

    I don't see how it could be that low, considering acquisition fee, Florida dealer fees, etc, etc..

    Better to ask for the actual numbers.

    I think we worked just an okay deal? The advice on here about decreasing the MSDs was really helpful.

    MSRP $46,495
    $41,202.86 Adjusted Cap Cost
    2021 C300 RWD
    48 months/10,000
    $479 month including tax
    We put down $2,500 in MSDs (refundable security), $479 (1st month) and $375.00 for docs etc...
    Our 2018 GLC with a lease ending at the end of May and 1 payment left, with only $22,000 miles (allowable 30,000) on it was returned at time of purchase and dealer bought the car. This helped us considerably in what seems like a bad leasing climate at the moment. They applied $2,800 towards the deal.

    I do calculate that payments should be about $35 per month less but inventory is extremely low at all the dealerships in my area and I didn't want to push it any further. From going back and reading this forum it just seemed as though getting a C300 in the mid 400s would not be a likely scenario. Perhaps I'm wrong.... I wish more people would post there final deals on here, it would make the process of leasing much easier.

    Congrats!

    Appreciate the report - at the moment, an "OK" deal is probably better than normal, given the inventory issues every brand is suffering from.

    Hi all,

    Going for my 2nd lease here and am hoping to get as good a deal as the first time. Looking at leasing a C 300 Cabriolet 36/12. Can you please share the MF and RV for 34787 zip code?

    Any suggestions of what the lease value should be? I've seen some "offers" in the region that don't make sense to me, for example:

    MSRP on their website is $59,400
    Lease $659/mo for 36 months $5313 due at signing

    But when you read the fine print...
    Advertised 36 months lease payment based on MSRP of $55,750 less the suggested dealer contribution of $1,099 resulting in a total gross capitalized cost of $54,651. Dealer sets the final price and Dealer’s contribution may vary and could affect your actual lease payment. Includes Destination Charge. Excludes title, taxes, registration, license fees, insurance, dealer prep and additional options. Total monthly payments equal $23,724. Cash due at signing includes $3,859 capitalized cost reduction, $795 acquisition fee and first month’s lease payment of $659.

    Also, in everyone's experience, will leasing two cars give me any negotiation advantages?
