Lease number help

Hey all. So i just spent some time at my dealer this afternoon trying out the CLA, GLA, and the C. They have a nice 2015 C300 that ive got my eye on, was hoping for some guidance on pricing from the experts on here They presented me with the following:

Sticker 51,990
discount -6918.40
Selling price 45,071.60 (total cap)
Money down 2,995.00 (cap reduction)
Net cap 42,076.60

Doc fee 75.00
licence/title 550.00
other fee 72.75
acquisition fee 1,095.00
tax on collected items 1,351.73
1st payment 399.00
due on delivery 6,538.48

MF 0.00169
36 month 10k miles
residual 62%
residual amount 32,233.80
mn tax 7.775%

Asked about using security deposits, $3,500 on top brings the MF down to 0.00099 and payments to 346.98. I think i could get a bit better considering its a 2015 model thats been on the lot a while and they have 5 similarly equipped 15s sitting there. Anyone got any pointers?

I did not lease but purchased 2015 c300. Almost 16% msrp and this was 2 months before. I am thinking you should at least get 18 to 20% off msrp now.

I would not recommend putting any extra $ down on a lease because if the car gets written off by insurance you do not get that $ back.

Thanks for the advice guys. Does anyone know if any of the dealer fees are waivable/negotiable? IE the $1095 acquisition fee, or getting the dealer to eat/waive the doc/licence/title?
