Is this a good deal?

Hello,

I've been trying to find a C63 coupe and am ready to lease it this weekend.

The only option I need is Lighting Package as I think it's ridiculous for a car like the C63 to come with halogen bulbs, but I can't find a white coupe that's not relatively well optioned in a 500 mile radius.

With the following options:
  • Lighting Package
  • Multimedia Package
  • Lane Tracking Package
  • Keyless Go
  • Wheel Locking bolts
  • AMG Illuminated Door Sills

The MSRP is around $71,500.

The deal is as follows:

36 months @ 7,500 per year; 58% residual
Tier 1A credit; 0.00195 money factor or 4.68 apr

Cap cost: $63,800 (which from my research seems to be $1,600 below invoice)
Drive off: first month payment + DMV fee

Monthly comes out to around $950 including 9% LA county tax

Can I do better than this?

I know some members were able to get almost $10k off when these cars have trunk money, but I haven't been able to get a dealer to give me a better price.

Any advice or pointers would be greatly appreciated

$36000 for 22500 miles.

Why don't you buy a 2010 for close to that. Then you have something. Penn fed is doing 1.9 % loans tier a

I have to agree with just buying at price point. 22500 miles and only 58% residual seems off also...

The car needs to be leased as the lease payments will go toward tax deduction for my business.

Interesting, is the 58% residual figure not correct? I was told by 2 dealers that that's what the residual is for 36 months @ 7,500 miles per year. I thought the residual is just horrid for the C63 coupe?
