Lease and Brakes/Rotors? Any other costs?
How long do breaks and rotors last under normal use on these cars? If I were to lease c300 at 36/15k should I expect to have to replace them before I turn the car in?
How much do replacements run and would they need to be done at a dealership to avoid warranty issues?
Also are there any other additional costs above service I should be aware of with a lease (ie replace brakes, replace tires, etc) when I go to turn is back in? I know they can change you for items on drop off.

If by normal driving you mean as a DD car and nothing more, I would expect you shouldn't need to do a brake job before handing the car back in. Of course the more aggressive you actually end up driving the car, the more wear and tear you'll put on the brakes. Just like any other brand car. MB just costs a more for parts and labor that's all. Definitely more expensive to service than your Acura, but I assume you realize that all luxury brands cost more to service than what you're driving right now.
You may have to change out one set of tires over the three year period, but that's normal. Maybe change out a set of wiper blades as well. When you bring in your car for schedule A and B service, they'll check your tires for wear and let you know if they need to be changed. MB service is a bit more expensive than some other luxury brands, but nothing outrageous from my perspective.
