Oh, I have no idea about lease rates on these things. I've never leased a car.

It's not very pretty right now. E550 lease rate have a money factor of .0037 (approximately 9% interest) compared to E350's which have a money factor of .0017 (approximately 3% interest). This makes for a wildly distorted difference in the comparative cost of lease these two vehicles.

That’s REALLY a difference! Seems like when you add the MSRP difference
of about 9,000 to the average lease term total payments that would make
an almost unbelievable spread between the two!

No kidding it makes a difference. I was originally going to lease an E550 to replace my wife's Audi S4 until I figured out the cost difference. We ended up with an '08 E350 with every available factory installed option ($62,600 sticker price) for $720 a month with nothing down (except first payment and reg fee) on a 33 month lease.

E550 and Z4 3.0si
June was the month to lease an E550...got mine for $688 a month for 33 months w/ 12k miles and nothing out of pocket but upfronts.
Maybe they will change that in September if there are enough 07s still left over, but in July and August, there was more trunk money on the 550 but the lease rates were/are poor.
