I picked up my 2014 GL350 yesterday ... not much room to neg price, but was able to save $2,500 on my lease with good credit (~800) ... dealer has to request a preferred rate (called an "A1" or "a9"), MBFS has to approve (took 5 min on a Sat) and saved the $$$

We had a 2011 GL 450 ... Love the new model and the diesel.

can you tell me more?

i.e., residuals, money factor, etc. what was the difference with the non-preferred rate. thanks

hsteinman

adjusted money factor by % points to equal a $2,000 savings

raysmd

so what was the money factor? standard is .00225

Salespunk

Standard this month on the GL is .00175, not .00225. Residuals are 61%.

raysmd

Does that include the 350? I thought that rate only applied to the non-350's

hsteinman

Sorry I did not jot down the number ... just know I was able to save

raysmd

I'm finalizing my lease for a GL350 tomorrow. Can you guys let me know if I can do better than .00225

Thanks

Are you guys getting the 0.00175/61% on a 2014 GL450? RidewithG lists that for the 2013 models. I was in the dealer yesterday optioning a 2014 GL450 and they quoted me the standard money factor and 61% residual for 15k/36mo. My credit would qualify as top tier.

At those numbers, I am probably going the finance route given especially attractive credit union rates in my area.

There are a few 2013s left in the region but my dealer had none.
