Mbusa.com lease rates

If you use the lease rate calculator on mbusa.com, why is the resulting lease payment substantially lower than what a dealership would quote you? Even compared to leasecompare.com, mbusa.com's rates are always lower. Why are they so inaccurate?

I always find the rates on mbusa.com way too high.

You can always go to this site calculator www.leaseguide.com

I don't think the MBUSA web site includes sales taxes.

I have found that most prices listed for everything are inaccurate on the MBUSA website. Let me rephrase this: the prices might not be inaccurate on the site, BUT the dealers mark everything up.

Too bad we can't acutally purchase items directly from the website....
