Here we go again - Lease payments....

I know there was a long thread on this, but pretty simple... what was your MSRP / selling price, money down amount if anything, what is your lease payment?

Trying to see a trend in monthly pricing of what a good deal is on new 2020 c43 amg sedans. Dealerships are like magicians, they show you a huge 10-12% MSRP discount, but adjusted cap on back end some how is increased and your monthly is higher than a dealer with a lower MSRP discount.

MSD separate of course because that is an investment on your end to lower monthly.

I'd be curious as well. Pondering picking up one of these. I don't think they can really play with the residual but the MF is where they can get you.

All I know is there is no way anyone is picking up a 2020 with at least a $65K MSRP and 0 down for $770 or less. Of course depends time of month and their state sales tax.

Discuss...................

You shouldn’t be paying more than $625 a month on a well equipped 2020 C43. I’ve seen fully loaded models go for $620 a month.

I could be wrong but that seems low. I'd be all over that.

Must be. That's a really low number unless it's a 48 month or there was a trade in involved.

0 down, 12k/48m. $4200 drive off includes taxes (NY).
10k/36 would be the $680 range but still under $700.
You can even get into the $590 range with 10k/48 and 0 down.

Leasehackr.com - use their calculator

48 months. And Lol spent 2 seconds on RODO and found this. I’m sure if you spent the time, researched, and haggled you can find better deals.

you do realize that is 48 months, which is totally different pricing to 36 months and that car is only $62K MSRP.. I actually just put in all my numbers in lease calculator and I"m at $766, which is $2 off give or take, and a custom build. So thank you for your research, but I am right on monthly payment lol.

The lease hacker calculator just tells you if your getting a good deal or not, the actual monthly on a 36/10 is still under $700 on several cars on apps like RODO. I expect they will go even lower when they officially release the new models.

lol good luck.

I get the sense a lot of people over paid on their leases. I suggest getting a broker next time.

What many people seem to overlook is the MF and residual which I have yet to see in the example above. All I see is a third party app, which there are hundreds of with some thrown together numbers. I would like to see an actual deal breakdown consisting of cap cost, residual, MF and terms. Along with any money down and taxes.

if you custom order a car you're only going to do as well as the advertised/standardized MF and residuals for the period + whatever MSRP discount present which will likely have a floor of like +$400 over invoice.

It really doesn't get very complicated when there is no negotiation left.

Correct thats when the numbers get closer to $800. All these marketing deals / apps talking out of their *** to get you to come in and get the car / start talking real numbers.

It’s a 48 month, the 36 month term is high 600s for 63k car. No trades, nothing down.

Frankly, if you can get 800 out the door no money down on a 70K loaded c43 that's not a bad deal.
