Hey all. I'm about half way through my lease on a C350. I'm thinking about stopping my to see my rep to see if I can get out of my lease and into a 2011 C63 and still get some off the MSRP knock down others have reported. I was hoping to get some insight to see if anyone thinks I can get out of my lease AND into the new car and still get a knock off the MSRP. No clue if anyone's had experience with that. I'm turning 25 next month, getting married in January and I have a clean driving record in Texas. Any thoughts on an insurance premium range. Thanks for any help and sorry if that's not enough information!

I pay $1,540.00 a year in insurance. Not bad at all.

Damn son, are you married? If so, maybe its cause I am single and under 40, but my insurance is about $1800 a year (although next year this moving violation from Spring 09 comes off - so that might decrease a little).

Payments are $1000 even, registration is $850 per year, insurance on mine is about 3,000 per year!!!
Had a s**t load of moving violations including speeding tickets in the past and owning a C63 doesn't make it any easier. haha
Add gas, mods, and tires into the equations and it really adds up fast.

they probably screw you getting out of a lease early? I wouldn't think you will be in a position to talk price. More like it's going to cost you $xxxx to get out of your lease and c63 will be $xxxx/month. But again I have no idea.

I pay $1100 for insurance.

SonnyakaPig

Yes, married, plus multi-car discount. I have just one other car. No moving violations for some time.

I pay $1250 a year for my C63 and G37xS. I'm 34, Married with a clean driving record. I believe I would be paying around $950 a year for just the C63.

I'm at about $1800 a year for my C63...I'm 27 with a pretty clean driving record (last speeding ticket was over 5 years ago...definitely looking forward to it coming down in the coming years (got hammered on my G35 btwn the ages of 21-26...)

Thanks guys, that definitely gives me some perspective. My rep has told me that it shouldn't be a problem to get out of my lease 6 months out if I'm buying new or releasing. I'm a little further out than 6 months though . Maybe I should wait until my lease is out, next October, and try to pick up a lightly used 2012, or even a used 2011 then and have some extra cash for wheels and tires. Oh, and a wide body conversion . Love this forum.

SonnyakaPig

Yes, wide body conversion would be sick.

SonnyakaPig

That's really good. What kind of coverage do you have? I have some relatively high limits.

bmoney12

I believe it's 500/500 with a 1K deductible.

SonnyakaPig

You're doing well. I believe I'm right up there with you.

I'm real happy having low insurance rates for this car.

We pay around 1500 a year as well

C63 and 2012 EX35 (traded the FX in for it) MB and Infiniti seem to be a common car pair for families

I am married as well, 35, no kids. limits are high, not sure what the exact number is (my company requires me to have min $1m in liability limits), with $500 deductible.

man the insurance is surely cheap in the States. Compared to Toronto if you are under 30 insurance will be at least $3000 for male drivers doesn't matter what car you drive. Worst is with crappy transit system we have no choice but to folk over the money. I was quoted $3300/yr for insurance for a 09 C63 AMG

oggie

Crayon, that's a good reason to get married to save on insurance....and scr£w TTC.

crayonshinchan

yes but that will cost me a lot more in the long run.
