Looks great, the E500 Sport should have looked like that.....minus the wheels, 4 exhausts in the back.

I agree. I didn't like the dark wood trim inside so I didn't order my E500 with the sports package. Just went with E1 (bi-xenon & washers) instead.

Yes, that is most likely the case if you ordered Stone with the Sport Package......this is what MBUSA lists the Sport package as, although they don't call it the SP (on the site anyway).

Basically, if you chose the E3 package....this is what your getting.

Black Birds Eye Maple Trim, Blue Tinted Glass
· LED Brake Lights, Sculpted Side Skirts,
· Front Bumper, Rear Apron,
· 17" Sport Wheels with 245/45 R 17 tires

This is what i thought the E500 sport was going to look like. i saw it on MBSPY:

oops! I don't know if i'm allowed to post on this site a pic from that one so i deleted it. the picture looked just like the E55 except had 2 exhaust instead of 4. it looked really fine.

Indeed, thats what we all originally thought the Sport package was going to consist of, but the AMG package for the 320/500 is not available as a factory option on U.S. cars unfortunately....for now anyway.

For 36 months, no cap reduction, taxes up front, 12k miles/year.......don't bet on anything less than $1200/month, taxes rolled in around $1300-$1350.

Remember, with the AMG models...many dealers get a bit crazy with adding points to the base buy rate.

What do you mean when you say a dealer adds points to a lease? Do you mean increase the interest rate? Generally if you can't get a good lease rate (money factor) through MBCC then you can always go to another lender for a better deal, right.

Thats exactly what I mean, lots of dealers do it......especially on desirable models (it ups the backend reserve/profit). You can go to a different lender for a finance, I assume you could with a lease as well.

going to another leasing lender

Not necessarily; it's up to the discretion to accept your alternate lender. They dont have to contract the lease with you if they feel there is someone else out there they can lease to, who's willing to pay extra. Unless they're hard up to make the sale, dont assume the dealer will accept your lender. Most dealers shouldnt have a problem, but it's not a guarantee.
