Getting another lease. Advanced questions
I called my dealer and asked about loaners that are available for lease. He reviewed my record and confirmed I have 8 months left on my lease and they can take of 3-6 months depending on the car that I select. He asked me if I wanted 10k miles a year and I said, “no, 15k Mile. I’m currently over mileage now.
He said, I cant get both paid mileage and 3-6 months off.
Do you think that’s true?
What should I look for on the lease contract?

I don’t think that’s true. But just my 2 cents.

I am waiting for him to give me my numbers, he hasn’t yet. I text ihim and asked him what was the MF and he didn’t know want I meant. I replied the Money Factor, so I’m waiting...
I read on the forum to confirm the price, MF and discount.
Hopefully, I have that part right.

just drive it and make a deal with them at the end. They're taking advantage of you I think.

You might need to go in and sit down with your dealer.
1. A "pull ahead" - is where MBFS will credit/pay last 3-6 months of your current lease - and correct - depending on the model moving to determines how many months
2. A "retired loaner" qualifies for MB 1st Class Lease
3. As a "retired loaner" qualifies for additional dealer discount above-and-beyond new car discount - that's the key to where your "deal" is going to happen
4. Without picking out the rig - get to MF and all that jazz later..

Okay so the retired loaner is the way to go. Should I wait until June or July to entertain any offer?
It told him to look out for a sport model for me cuz the one I have now looks so boring!
I was was thinking of getting another C300 cuz I wanted to stay with something smaller and leaving MB at the end may cost me more because I’m over mileage plus I can’t wait to get a lease payment that doesn’t include my previous car.
I traded my e350 for the lease C300 worst financial decision.

So you know - the "pull ahead" payments are paid by Mercedes Financial - the reason I say this is so that you know the "3-to-6" payments depending on model selected are not coming out of your pocket - or the dealers pocket - either. It's a smart customer retention tool - so you can move forward to your next Mercedes before you can move to something else.
Excess miles - on pull ahead you are given credit for the full mileage allowed on your lease - which should also help you a bit.
Excess miles are excess miles - you can calculate to expense - so that that doesn't get lost in the shuffle and is discussed on the table as part of the deal - or you will get a bill later from MBFS for the miles.
You're within striking distance - go hammer something put - be happy !
