Thank you!

Here to bring some light to pricing so members know what to ask for when negotiating a deal for lease or finance.

Hi there -

Really appreciate this. We're looking at a 2024 GLC300 that's a retired service loaner. They're classifying it as new but it has ~6k miles on it. They have the MSRP at $59,815 and they're initial quote was $57,900 with taxes/fees and a few warranty additions (that we wouldn't take) bringing the OTD price to $63k. It's RWD, AMG night line, Exclusive trim, with the Manufaktur patagonia red metallic paint. I was hoping to get the OTD price closer to $56-$57k and then use the $3k AA incentive to get us around $53-$54k. Is this reasonable? Figured it being the last 2024 GLC they have on the lot and 6k miles on it there should be some room to bring the price down. Thanks.

Retired loaners go for 15-20% off especially GLC300s

Depending on where you live, your target is $48k BEFORE incentives
In your case it's $2500 + $500 additional for AAA in incentives

Looking at lease options

Looking at getting a new Benz and this is the quote I received for a 2025 GLE 350. To me, this doesn’t seem like a good deal. I leased my current one (for way less in 2020) I bought out at the end because of the high prices. With these numbers I’m thinking I still need to sit it out and wait. Opinions? Advice?

For this GLE

Your dealer discount needs to be 10% off before rebates so $7563 off MSRP
The MF is also marked from the buy rate for tier1 credit of .00293 assuming this is 4matic.

Your payment with $0 due for 15k miles / 39 month should be $1149/month with VA tax

They are not giving you the best discount or money factor

If you need help or further advice, please feel free to call us at 201-429-7045

Thank you I thought I understood you correctly (I have chemo brain &#128514 & thought the same regarding the money factor. It is a 4matic & we do have tier1 credit. This one is in VA & we are NC so I’m not traveling for a poor deal.

There is a lot of room in your deal so I would go back to them for a bigger discount and better MF or walk away from it unless it's a must have build combo that you can't live without haha

I can 100% walk away. I really don’t care for the interior color. I countered their offer and will likely walk away. There’s always new builds coming out. Thank you so much for helping people with this stuff.

Looks like a solid resource for Mercedes-Benz lease and finance deals. If you're in the market, these pre-incentive discount targets can help gauge what kind of pricing to aim for. Let me know if you need help understanding lease terms or comparing deals!

I’m not too deep into car leasing, but from what I’ve seen, Mercedes usually offers solid discounts in January, especially for lease deals with low APR financing. Dealers often push last-year models to clear inventory, so you might find better incentives on 2024 models. If you’re looking for the best value, it’s always good to compare options before locking in a deal — kind of like how Exness account comparison helps traders pick the right account type based on their needs. Definitely worth checking with multiple dealerships to see what works best for you!

Hello! Please forgive me if this is not the appropriate forum for this. I’ve gone back and forth trying to decide between leasing or buying a CLE 53 AMG. I’ve done both in the past with other vehicles and in general prefer buying. However, I do not plan on keeping the car longer than 3-ish years. I’ve decided to lease (understanding fully the long term implications and overall higher cost of ownership over a lifetime relative to buying less expensive or already depreciated cars and driving them longer term). Can someone give me a roundabout estimate if I were to lease a 2025, MSRP of approx 85K, no cash down, and assuming reasonable/expected MF? I know I can use a lease calculator but cannot get consistent information on discounts, rebates, etc. Thanks everyone!!!

What would target pricing be on 2025 low miles/loaner vehicle with 7000 miles - GLS w/AMG appearance package, bench seat. Orig msrp was $95,705 and dealer has it priced at $85,000

The EQ lineup at 12 percent and the C300 and GLB at 11 percent are particularly strong targets. Quick question, are these discounts achievable nationwide or more regional? Also given current interest rates is leasing the better play over financing on most of these models? Pairing these discounts with current MB Financial money factors could result in some very strong deals.
