LSM777

SOLD ---- 8/2012

So I just got the car 1 month ago but my new car came in way quicker than anticipated. I do business with a dealer in SoCal so got an untouchable deal and would like to pass it on to one of you. My base payment is $816.06/mo + use tax is 7.75% of 816.06 which is 63.24 total payment $879.30 (all in-including use tax and everything) with 37 months left. Original lease term 39 months with 12k miles/year, I have 1600 miles on the car currently. I am asking for $3500. MSRP is $79,945.00. Whoever assumes the lease would be responsible for the assumption fee which is $595.00 through Mercedes Benz Financial and would have to be approved by them. (easy) At $3500 down a new CLS550 lease payment would be $1000+/mo including all taxes, I am at $879.30/mo all in including everything -this deal is a steal for anyone interested.


Windows are already tinted and I have 20" vossen CVS3 on car which I will also sell really cheap. Car comes with the optional 19's and is built as below:

It then expertly steers the car into the space while you control the brakes and gear selection. In any low-speed maneuver, PARKTRONIC's ultrasonic sensors in the front and rear bumpers detect nearby objects within the system's field of view. Audible signals and illuminated displays in the cabin help you navigate tight spaces with confidence.

Here are pics of the 20x9 fronts and 20x10.5 rear Vossen CV3 on Hankook rubber 255/30/20 and 295/25/20 offset sits flush with fender looks great, no mods or anything else done to car. As mentioned above the car will come with the stock wheels and you can add these wheels for cheap if wanted. (sorry for poor quality phone pics)

Tjdehya

Are you selling the Vossens separately? If so how much?

LSM777

PM sent...

LSM777

Just to clarify, I guess I didnt make it clear enough, LOL , the payment of $879.30 includes tax and everything. People , leasing companies, mb financial, etc advertise lease payments then add + tax, title, license, fees etc. My payment is the true payment

RobbieRob

Pics of interrior?

LSM777

I was actually in my car when I got the thread response and was able to snap these pics before my battery died. Sorry for poor quality, I will try to post better ones this weekend. Thanks....1499 miles on odometer right at this moment--see below..

RobbieRob

So, Let me just clarify. I am giving you $3500 and then take over your payment of $879.30 for the remainder 37 months? correct? I'm thinking about this real hard, might give my Mom my w212 e550, and take yours for myself. Will MB transfer lease agreements to different owner?

LSM777

You would give me $3500.00 only after Mercedes approved you. They are great to work with apparently so as long as your credit is good it shouldnt be an issue. You would also be responsible for the $595 assumption fee and then yes your payment would be $879.30. Simple. The car would come with the stock wheels (see below) We could make a deal on both sets of wheels would be cheap if you wanted, but if not no problem. If you have additional questions, I just PM'ed you my phone number.

Wouldn't the fact that you two are not in the same state have some impact on the payment due to state taxes? Might go up, might go down.

Don,

I am so glad you addressed that and I was just going to post something.
So just to clairify and I edited the original post. San Diego has one of the highest sales tax in the country at 7.75% so I wanted to list my base payment;

Base Payment: $816.06 + use tax $63.24 (san diego is 7.75% of 816.06)
total payment $879.30

Most buyers would have a lower tax rate thereby lowering your payment

what car is replacing this beast ? something more juicy?

LSM777

650 gran coupe, dealer i know put me at #1 on list

T.H.Carrera

So ur trading the beastly v8 for a 6 cylinder huh ? is it that good?

LSM777

No way.. The 650 gran coupe is twin turbo 8 - 445hp and 480lb/ft..Its way more expensive than CLS550, pushing CLS63 in price. My as built price was $95k OUCH!! LOL...Its not out yet just the 640 is which i drove. 640 is underpowered imo, It handles amazing and has the best interior I have seen in a while. I get the july 21 build of the 650 which is the first slot, delivery late august / early september. I honestly thought I would be waiting a year, there is a 10 person list but he put me on top so Im not complaining

Lou

T.H.Carrera

dang! we got a baller amongst us

davidbijan

I dont think its that great of a deal, but congrats on your gran coupe.

T.H.Carrera

whats not a steal ? his current CLS ?

davidbijan

The cls has a low monthly payment but the cars msrp is 80k and he's asking you to pay 3500 (The same amount he paid). I would probably ask for less of an up front payment from the buyer. Also i know alot up people choose the 12k mileage limit/yr, but i would not want to be limited to keeping the mileage at 900 per month. Case in point he put 1600 miles in 1 month. The deal probably works for many prospective buyers.

T.H.Carrera

David what deal were u able to score? sounds like you got something better than this for new?

davidbijan

I did not get a low payment like his because i paid less down, my msrp was higher, and my mileage limit is 15k/yr. With that ill probably run over. Oh well

LSM777

My MSRP is 80k I put MORE down than 3500.00 ($5000 actually)...I have made 2 payments and have 1600 miles which means you can average over 1000 miles per month so youre not limited to 900 miles. My total mileage for 39 months is 39,000 miles and I have 37 payments left with only 1600 miles. Worth mentioning is i took a drive up and down the coast with my fiancee totaling 750 miles so thats also not common and I would have way less miles. One final thing to mention you have 39000 miles for the life of the lease but Mercedes Financial Always has a deal that lets current lessee's get out of the deal 3-4 months early if you lease another MB. Also worth mentioning my rate is their buy rate no mark up. 39k miles is more than enough for most everyone's purposes especially considering you really would have 39k miles for 36 months (maybe 35 months) if you leased another MB.

Regarding the price and the great deal this is;
No one else would get 9500 off list of an $80k car, I got an employee deal. Therefore, you walk into a dealer put down 3500 on an 80k car you would not get the amount off I got and your payment would not be close to 816.06 + use tax. Those are the facts....just to be clear here. I do not long for even one option that would enhance my experience in any way. This car has perfect options for me.



Lou

LSM777

Nah, def not baller status..

T.H.Carrera

You leasing or buying the GC? what are the numbers on that like ?

LSM777

I am leasing, used to buy all my cars when I was in Chicago bc we got tax credit but in Cali its really best to lease. So the residual on the 640GC is around 64% with 12k miles/year so its about 10 points higher than CLS. The dealer did not have the residual for the 650GC so we assumed the same 64 so hope its there. Anyway with 5k down its high like over 1200. Dealer said he'd give me a discount, we'll see as of right now there are not discounts on these but he said he'd work with me so we'll see.Thats what I am working through right now bc the CLS is an amazing machine, is the 650GC worth an extra 400/mo....probably not so we'll see what happens if he gives decent discount and if I can get around 1100 maybe ok.

Lou

UPDATE - So the residuals came out for the 650GC and they are 57 w/12k miles / year. They also lowered the 640GC residual to 57. The dealer allowed me to take a 640GC slot and I locked in the 64 residual before the change on Monday July 9, but hope I dont regret lack of power. Lease payment difference bc of the reisdual change and higher price is like 400 between locking in on higher residual 640 or taking 650
