deal or no deal? 2008 e350

so.. i made my decision, im gettin back into a benz.. just thought i ask fellow w211 owners questions about pricing..

the car that im looking at is a 2008 E350 fully loaded with all options, amg appearance package etc, $1250 down payment, 10k miles a year, 3 year LEASE, $540+tax a month.. what do you guys think?

Does it have leather? It doesn't look like an absolute best since people reported $425 with the same terms, however I would take it if my dealer offered something like that.

What is MSRP of your configuration?

Post the build sheet and MSRP.

If it is fully loaded the MSRP will be at least $64k

i dont have the build sheet, but its actually through a friend of a friend.. he did quote me somewhere between 55-60k MSRP. and yes it does have leather. i just wanted to kinda compare this pricing vs. other members on board. im stuck between leasing the brand new 350, or purchasing a CPO 55.

If Gas Mileage isn't an issue I'd go CPO'd 55 for suure.

Those Lease rates are insane though...Makes me kinda depressed I put $15K down and financed the rest of my car..... I love the car and got a great deal on it but seems not to be the wisest financial decision with the seemingly desperate deals M-B is throwing out there.
