First Time Mercedes Benz & First Time Lease
Hi all. I'm seriously in preparation to lease a 2015 Mercedes Benz C300 Sedan. I've test-driven the car & though it's a bit small, I really like it. I'm worried about getting a bad deal though. This would be my first Benz & my first time Leasing! I want the premium, multimedia package & panoramic roof. I need navigation, want rear view camera & want heated front seats. They said I'd have to have the 2 packages to get those. I prefer white on the exterior color & don't care too much for any particular interior color. I've been reading the forum and see that some people have had issues with black MB tex seats bleeding. That makes me nervous because most of the white C300s have black interiors. I have one quote so far:

my car is about $520/month, $52k MSRP, $1300 Total cash required, $32,971 residual
but mine has the 3 year maintenance package
we are paying roughly the same in terms of percentages of value. good deal

You had a high MSRP, so you must have lots of options on your car.
I'm hoping for even better deal than the numbers I have so far. **hopeful**
really wish my car had the lighting package
oh and yea, cranberry red leather
