Do you think I can do better? they are selling the car at invoice and an additional 4k cash back/loyalty. I know the 09's are right around the corner so I am wrestling with waiting for an 09 or take the 5 month lease wavier and 4k cashback/loyalty offer.

What do you think, lease now or wait?????

I'd lease it now and enjoy. That looks like a great deal to me.

Whoa! Wait a minute!

You say there is a 5 month lease waiver? I'm told there is a 5 month waiver (or "pull ahead program") for virtuallly all MB's EXCEPT for the R. Did they just add the vehicle?

You also say that there is $4k cash. I heard only 2k.

Granted, my information is about 3 weeks old.

What state are you in and can you give us your dealer?
