Finale to Lease Options

So we got a few options today since its coming close to the end of the lease. We've used 37,233 out of 48,750 (money comes back!). We can lease the car for another 9 months and get a whopping $35 off the lease price

We can buy the car at $30,750, as it was $33,450 but she took off some for a reason (beyond me!) and finance it thrugh MB Credit at 6.99% (lowest, even with Tier 1) at $655.65/month for 60 months...

????

With financing that long, that DOES change the price of the car. How similar is that monthly payment when compared to a NEW car? ...and do you want to own a 211 that's that old? (worried about repairs w/ no warranty?)

42K is the full retail value of the car as if the dealer sold it off the used lot. I agree. Lease a new one.. I think with the 211's Leasing is the way to go.

Leasing does not really work for high mileage drivers

At 30K miles per year I doubt if I could have found an attractive lease. Even with a few thousand dollars in annual repairs my cost per mile to own the car will still be reasonable.

So it seems its almost official that we will not be jumping into a S550 as of yet. My salesguy has told us that becuase he has a very stupendous deal on a 07 CLS550. Wednesday, we find out how sick this is...

Please give update on the stupendous deal on a 07 CLS550. We are also interested in buying or leasing one. It's a toss btw E class or the CLS. If the price is right, we might go for the CLS.
