Check out edmunds lease forum. You’ll get the exact MF and residual for your car and state.
Negative. MBZ has not released lease 'programs' for the 2019 cars. Anyone have a 2018 C43 and can tel me the MF?

I think I read (Macan forum) this morning that you were tired of loading golf clubs in your 911. You have two nice vehicles coming, I'm still deciding the '19 C43 or the GTS. See you around the forums, a good way to kill time until December arrives.Originally Posted by drbeck13

I'm SO conflicted. The 2018 c43 was great, almost bought it...dedided to wait and order. a 2019 Its' at least $10,000 cheaper then thew GTS and DIFFERENT...BUT, nothing drives like a Porsche. The BEST MF on the GTS I'm going to get (tier 1) is ..00290. Awful. thats why I'm trying to find out about the C43 MF. My SA has no info yet. I'm curious to what the guys who have the 2018 are paying. AS stated and contrary what soneone posted, EVEN if the certification has been approved, its going to be weeks until the ones at port are loaded on boats. I dont think im seeing a c43 until December. The GTS should be here October 5 You?

Are keeping both cars? Since the GTS will be here before the C43, are you going to refuse the Mercedes when it arrives in December? I keep hearing that MB cars get stuck at the ports and sit for long periods of time before they release them, not sure why?

ExploreDont know. I'm a bit bitter as the screwed up my custom order on the AMG. Wrong color int CF panel. I dont know. Already got a pre approval from a credit union so I canbuy either one. As we all know, the PFS leases SUCK.
Funny. Both cars are identical in terms of color int and ext. JMB with black and red alcantara stitching, red belts, red gauges

LOL...both the same color, amazing. I would venture a guess the C43 will out handle the GTS easily due to the center of gravity. Both will have about the same interior volume, the GTS will be easier to get in/out of. If you keep the C43 get rid of the run flats for some PSS and the C43 will be even better.
I can't decide which car to get and you have them both coming, that's a unique situation, and your sort of in the same boat as me, trying to decide, LOL!
I won't be an easy decision. What forum do you like more?

Exactly the conundrum. Yes RF's are gone, like on the way home If I buy the AMG. Already got a quote of $1400. Put them in garage at turn in time. I like both for different reasons. I've owned 10 Porsches in my day and just bought wifey a Gl350. Love it. The Porsche for has too many fussy people!

I agree with you, some high strung, fuss pots on the Macan Forum no doubt. I like Porsche cars too, but they are not the end-all-be-all of the auto world. Plus, they are hard to work on without taking so many things apart to do simple service. The MB looks easy to service at home.
The interior of the GL 350 looks pretty nice, as good or better then the GTS.
Be careful what you say on the Macan Forum or the headhunters will come and scalp your ***!

ok. New issue. Really conflicted now.” Stop me before I kill again”. Drove a drop dead gorgeous e400 black cab with saddle int. Amg package. Loaded. AMG wheeels. *****in. Not quite as handily as a c43. But close enough. The good part. $10,000 off MSRP MF .00082!!! I’m seriously thinking about this. My GTS is on Van Cherry off the Mexico coast near Acapulco.

The black paint and Saddle Brown leather is a killer combination, and with the top down would make most grown men drool all over themselves. The weight of the convertible will reduce its handling as you know, and the car will be more noisy on the highway. However, it would be an excellent GT car with luxurious amenities. The car is down in HP at 329 but would still be fun and might be tunable for a bit more power. At 10K off it is a pretty good deal, I would try for a bit more and make it a great deal. Resale value will not be as good as the GTS, and the black paint will take some effort to always look good. I hate trying to make these decisions, personally, I would take the GTS over the E400 AMG. But I would still feel good driving the MB as it projects a slightly different image, prestige vs. high-end sportiness of the GTS. You have a tough call to make, let us know what you decide?Originally Posted by drbeck13

Yea And the new e450 is on tis way with a bump and added AMG options. The deal is great though. Saves me $400 a month over the GTS..and its 'pure puzzzy' to look at! Trying to decide how to roll Wifey has a new MBZ GLE350 SUV...might not need two in the household. Something else. I love the size bump from the C43, which I always thought was a bit smallish...we will see..CONFLICTED.Originally Posted by synergize
