I still think its a good deal. Personally I don't put 5k on a car that I'm leasing no more than 3500. For a payment at about 630 is preferred over giving dealer another 1500. But thats me.

You know the bottom of this dealer. You can risk it and try to leverage another dealer for a better deal. But whats the risk reward for the effort to save 10-15 bucks? At most 50.... To me the deal is a good one. The real question is. 1 do you think this deal is worth it for what you get would be be happy with the purchase? I think you would be. You defi aren't getting screwed over by the dealer. I would do it.

OK so lets just say the Summer Event Rebate is no longer available

Then your payment before taxes should be 528.00 so WALK away its not a good deal

Ozunaa, I agree with everything amgeater2 has said and his advice is 100% sound. That said, you have to consider some other things.

1. How bad do you want the car?
2. How much inventory of this model does your dealership have?
3. How close is the next closest dealership?
4. Is your $5k down in MSDs?
5. You are NOT going to get discounted, even this deep, on a C43.

If I have read this all correctly, you are now talking about the difference between the quoted $584 and $528. Is $56 a month enough to walk away from the car, once considering all the above???

I know you do not want to be taken advantage of, nobody does. But at the end of the day, it seems to be $56 difference. Unless I read this whole thread wrong.

If a dealer is not interested in negotiating, walk away. The first dealer I went to told me he's give me $7,500 off and that's it. They also told me that it won't get any better. When I told them to call me if anything changes, they said 'Nothing will change'. Went to another Mercedes dealer 15 minutes away and in five minutes, got the deal I wanted. Stick to your guns. Where are you? Take advantage of the MSD's.
