2016 Mercedes GL550 Lease/MF?
Hello. I'm hoping to get some advice.
I'm looking to either lease or finance a '16 GL550. MSRP for the two I'm looking at is $96K. Test drove two of them yesterday and was very impressed. I'm coming from a RRS. And admittedly the build and quality level of the 550 was much nicer than the new FFRR.
Anyway, I was quoted .00295 MF for the 550. Is that normal? Seemed crazy high. And there are a lot of them around. I'm in San Francisco.
Anyone know or have an idea what I should expect? Residual was 57%.
Thank you everyone! :-)

Got my answer last night.
We drove home with a brand new 2016 GL550 Polar White w/Black/burl walnut and couldn't be happier. Twenty-six delivery miles. Traded in a '13 RRS HSE Luxury which we loved, but were growing out of very quickly.
San Francisco Mercedes Benz was nothing but a pleasure to work with, this is our second Mecedes from them.
Will post pics later and provide first impressions.

Don't want to get into too many details but the deal was so good it was a no-brainer. We were able to negotiate the MSRP down quite a bit. And the MF and residual was extremely competitive. One of the best buying experiences I've had in a long, long time.

I am looking for one now. how much below MSRP if you don't mind sharing? The dealer I have talked to will not do anything lower than MSRP, saying the demands are too high and benz not making enough??
