How accurate is the lease calculator on MBUSA.com?
I was just wondering if the lease calculators on MBUSA.com are a good guage at determining the lease rates for the CLK. I was looking at the C320 but have now strayed to the CLK320.
Opinions valued.
Thanks

My experience with most auto calculators online is that they are generally off by a descent margin.
Since your in NY, what I would do is build your car on MBUSA.....then when you get to the financing screen, cancel out the automatic money down they put in (put $0). Then click the calculate button for 36months, 12k miles/year.
I would say that the number that pops up would be fairly accurate of a NY state lease, 36 months, 12k/miles year.....$0 down with taxes rolled in the payment (MBUSA shows it as tax up front, but the payment is definitely still too high with taxes up front as shown).
