Special pricing on 2006 Leases

Hi,

I am wondering if anyone has recently leased a 2005 CLK 350. The MBUSA website has a special on the CLK 350. I tried to contact dealerships for pricing, but they are giving me run-arounds, and rediculous(high) prices.

What did you guys paid for 39month lease?

not sure about the clk350

but i just leased a 2006 clk 500 coupe. The residual was 64% and the money factor was a very low 0.00135.
my car has the navi the lighting package and the premium package and the rear air bags making the msrp 61k.
Im in CA and with sales tax i am paying 690 a month for 39 months and 12K miles a year.
Nothing down at all.
Hope this helps you and remember the lease rates on the cab are much higher then the coupe.

CLK350 Preliminary Quote

I went to a couple of dealers and so far the lowest quote I got for a CLK650 (including the navigation system, premium package, and light package), 12k miles a year is $650 a month, including tax, with nothing down. But after seeing $690 a month for a CLK500, I would say $650 is stilll too much.

first off make sure you have tier 1 credit

i dont know what state you live in but in CA its an 8.25% tax on the monthly payments. Some states are different and some states make you pay sales tax on the car and a use tax on the payments like illinois.
Also remember to negotiate the money factor. if the tell you 0.00135 they can go down 1 or 2 points which makes a difference.
Hope this helps and let me know if you need more info.

$690 a month for a brand new CLK500 with no money down is a STEAL!! I know people that are paying more then that for a CLK350. Is the 690 tax in or tax out?

CLK-350 Coupe Cadet Blue.. YE YE
WTF HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?!?!

When I went to lease my clk-350 Coupe Equipped with: Premium PKG, Command, Heated Seats, Rear Side Air-Bags.
The best deal I could get was 900 a month for 39 months, with 4653 down Payment.
I ended up buying the Car, but How is it possible that the lease price dropped so much.

I live in NY and the tax is 8.75% but still thats quite a HUGE drop, would anybody bother explaining?

yeah I know it was a great deal and thats

why I got the clk500 over a cayman s.
The deal is 690 including the sales tax. I first negotiated a discount as if i was buying the car cash. I got a few grand under invoice at the end. Then i negotiated the money factor which took some more time. This was on january 5th during the winter sales event. The dealer didnt even the car in stock he had to do a dealer trade. And we did go through MB financial.
If you have anymore question ill be glad to answer them.
My trick when negotiating a lease, and I do a lot of them, is to go to 1 dealership (always internet or fleet sales) negotiate the lowest price you can on the monthly payments and always with nothing down just DMV fees. Putting money down on a lease is not a good financial decision. Then just go to a second dealership say I want this exact car with this color combo and these options. Then tell them you want to pay 50 dollars less than what the other dealerships best price was. this tactic has worked for me very well.

I've got my CLK-350 3 weeks ago (Navi, Sirur radio, Harmon Kardon, Bi Xenons, Wood package, iLink, Obsidian Black) for:

$3,000 at signing (with first payment, registration, taxes, etc included)
$610/mo for 39 months with 10K miles/year.

I though I had the greatest deal ever (since they took off almost 11% off the sticker price)... but now I see what other have been getting, and I feel cheated

QuickBurns deal is unheard of. Like I said, that's what you sould be paying on a CLK350. You got a hell of a deal, that I think no one else has gotten. Correct me if I'm wrong. Does someone else out their got a better deal?

It is about time some people on this board start getting smoking deals like me. These cars are not in demand right now ECONOMICS 101. If you've got the cash/credit and are flexible about color/options you can steal these vehicles from the stealership!!! 5 years ago everyone was paying sticker unless you knew someone

2004 CLK55 MSRP $77,115...I paid $56,000+tax/tags.
2005 SL600 MSRP $130,820...I paid $98,500+tax/tags.

Both were brand new in perfect condition, untitled, full warranty purchased from MB dealers! The problem on this board is that many people feel they need to "order" their vehicle. I guess I am luck that I have 30 dealers within a 50 mile radius of me

well, my deal went through only because they wanted to sell that car on tha day (3d of january). The car wasn't exactly what I wanted (Stone interior scares me with it's lightness), but I said I'll take it, if they give me good terms.

Sticker on mine was: $55,980
I got it for: $49,400

And I still didn't get as good of a deal as others on this board. I'm gonna cry

It's very true what quickburn says, he got in just at the right time and his dealer did right by him...nice work quickburn!

Unfortunately this deal is not obtainable at this time, we missed out by 20 days

yeah i gave you guys the term of my lease and

what the car had on it. I did get a great deal and i know it because its 100 dollars less a month then what i was paying on my $50k M3.
im sure this deal will come around again soon so if u guys wait a little longer im sure u can get in on it.
I love the car. It only has 300 miles but so far its great.
Im only having trouble getting my ipod to work on there!
