Winter Sales Event-2007
I am waiting for a 2008 ML320 CDI to arrive the first week in December. The new programs have not been announced. Can you give me an idea of what to expect on the CDI re: residual, money factor? I would be going with a 36 or 39 month term/15K miles @ year.
I subscribe to Automotive News and it publishes dealer incentives along with customer incentives/offers. How is the best way to introduce the knowledge of the dealer cash into the negotiations? Will they put into play?
Thanks!

Hard to tell as the new numbers are not usually disclosed until the new month. It will really depend on current inventory and year end sales goals.
Right now the the best lease programs are those from some other source than MBC. For example: http://www.leasecompare.com/quick_le...des+Benz+ML320

Do you guys expect changes?
The current programs for the E-Class say that they are valid until January... Do you think that the program will change in December or stay as is until Jan.
I am bummed because I missed out on a $0-down $579/month lease in late October, i was hoping December was going to be better.
But $4k down and 579/month for 24 months doesn't sound so appealing.
Has anyone done the math on the "special car", is it a good deal?

Thanks for the rates and the anticipated Dec. rates annoucemetn. I'm wanting to lease a 320CDI so I'm not getting my hopes up on any amazing deals. I might get lucky if they do for ML's in total.

320CDI -lease rates
If anyone has an update by this Friday on Dec. lease rates I could really use the insights. 320CDI, P2, Artic White...I realize that the CDI's are in short supply so the numbers may not be that aggressive.
Thanks for the help in advance.

MBC is not competitive vs a bank.
