'04 C32 Lease - Help Please!
Last night I went to my local dealership to talk about getting me into a C32. The sales guy had the nerve to quote me an $1100 per month payment! This is with a fully loaded, 36 month, 15K miles lease. I know this guy was sky high so I told him "I'll give ya call."
Then I get an email from another dealership (located about 1hr from me). Here is what he wrote me...
"Nicholas,
Here is the quote that you requested for the 2004 Mercedes-Benz C32. The vehicle is equipped with rain sensing windshield wipers, rear sunshade, command system, Bi-Xenon headlamps and metallic paint. The MSRP for this vehicle is $57,700. I am showing that in order to keep your payment at a total of $750 per month including tax on a three-year lease, based on 15,000 mi. per year, you would be required to put down approximately $9,500.
If I can assist you in any way please don't hesitate to contact me."
So what gives!? Why is it I hear of everyone getting these fantastic deals of $650 - $750 per month, with only $3K down!?
Does anyone have a phone number to a dealer in LA, San Francisco or Sacramento? I am about 2 1/2 hours - 3 1/2 hours from all. Stuck here in Fresno.
Thanks, I really appreciate anyones feed back on this!

What dealer are you working with? Can you give me their number? I've talked to 4 dealers now and they all seem to be in the $1000 - $1100 ballpark range. Is your quote after taxes and out the door? Or is this before?
Thanks,

The guys getting low numbers must be decapping AND getting good discounts. Try sourcing some other lenders, Chase seems to be fairly agressive with lease residuals.
With 10K down you could buy the car on a 60 month contract for under 1k a month.

Thanks 99ML430 for the info!
Anyone else have any dealers they got a good deal from?
