33 months lease
10k miles per year
down payment: $8,860
32 monthly payment of: $834

Seems a little high with the amount of money you're putting down. Whats the sell price, money factor and residual? I picked up my sedan in April with similar MSRP but am paying $980 a month for 33 months and 12k a year. Thats with 1k total out of pocket.

Payment means nothing. Need to know MSRP and selling price to let you know if you got a good deal.

If you have a good credit, don't put down any down payment. I think you need a better deal than this one.

Might wanna check out this deal on Edmunds. http://www.edmunds.com/mercedes-benz...on=leasing_irr

Just got posted on slickdeals too. Sure it's for a sedan, but I'm sure that'll be a good negotiating point maybe? ._.

It's not really a deal. It's the standard lease price at all MBZ dealers for a zero option base price model.

In general, the fewer options, the better the lease will be. As you start optioning the car out, the lease price increases quickly. Options don't really add much value for a used car down the line...

X2 thats not a great deal at all.. You basically get a base C63 with 1 option.... Put over $5k down and pay $700 a month.

2012 c63 amg coupe
2012 c63 coupe sticker $75,450 fully loaded minus p package. i paid tax, title and license $4000, 12k miles per year on a 48 month lease. my note is $1025 per month. that down payment seems pretty high....and my credit is fair at best.

Options are residualized at the same percentage rate as the base car. Doesn't matter which options or how many are included. You are right that the higher the MSRP, the higher the payment.

The base offer isn't a bad one, but it doesn't assume much discount on the car. The C63 base sedan can likely be had for zero down and about 725 a month if you nego the purchase price down.
