Is it really low inventory of E class?
I received strange letter from a dealer:
So question is something wrong with production? Or opposite thing and dealer wants to sell extra inventory? What's current price for E350 4 matic? $2 or $4K below invoice?
Dear Dema,
If you think gold has increased in value, wait until you see what your leased
2009 or 2010 model luxury car is worth by calling Mercedes Benz of Oakland. Your leased
high-line import luxury car may be worth more than you owe due to unpredicted
global demand and shortened supply. We would like to present you with the
opportunity for a complimentary equity review of your 2009-2010 E Class.
Investing 20-30 minutes of your time may qualify you to receive cash back. With
all the promotions we have going on; clients are upgrading into a newer vehicle
before their lease matures! Please contact our sales department to schedule a
review of your vehicle today. We look forward to hearing from you soon.
Kind Regards,
Mercedes-Benz

'14 ML350 GONE-'12 GL450/'10 E550/'10 ML350/'09 C300/'07 ML350/'03 E320
They are just trying to move the 2011's to get them sold as a used 2010 e350 is worth more than an unsold new 2011 e350 still sitting on the lot when the 2012's arrive soon. Sales trick to get the 2011's sold and resell the 2010 in an apparently hot used car market

That's a pretty nonsensical and oddball paragraph when you dissect it.
As if gold and a used car has the same sort of valuation in today's economy. And I like how they say, "unpredicted global demand and shortened supply." Um, yep, it's definitely unpredictable right now. And 'shortened supply' (if true) is shortened because of the unpredictable economy and consumer demand.
Anyway, don't dealers send these things out all the time to get people into a new lease? I thought it was a common sales tactic despite any supply and demand rhetoric.

I would give them a call and see what they are offering. Sounds like excess inventory with 2012's being sold. I got a call from my sales rep asking if I was intereted in upgrading (earlier this month). I said no....but I didnt lease, I purchased.
