I got mine from Mercedes of Escondido. I didn't mention, but I'm doing European delivery. I'm not sure if I could get 10% off if it wasn't for that. I have a feeling (based on the dealers in NY) that the coupe and the 43 will be harder to get a deal on then the regular GLC300

That's a very high drive off. The way I structure my leases, is with everything in the payment (nothing at signing except first payment)

If you would like a excellent lease calculator try https://leasehackr.com/calculator

I did a search for GLC43 but I only found 300's as a comparison. Nevertheless the site is full of info. I would see if you can push a little higher on the Residual and a little lower on th MF. All they can say is no.

Good luck.

Guys,

Thanks for all the input I drive off is high due to the MSD which is completely refundable which also lowers the MF. I'll talk to them about raising the residual as well.

liquidsphere which dealer did you get that 58k quote from? I'm in NorCal and might need to consider buying from SoCal if the discount delta is that large.

You are in NY and you get your deal from CA?

How did you find out Mercedes of Escondido? Was it recommended to you by your friend or you just contact dealers randomly?

I did European Delivery and found one of the sales guys - Herbert Haemmer - through his website. He made the transaction process very smooth. I'm not sure how much of a discount a person can get if not doing ED though

Our vehicles are very similar:
- both black paint
- both advanced parking assist
- I have the 21 inch wheels
- both black ash wood (you have excellent taste!)
- you have the red stitching (my better half didn't like that)
- I didn't go for the night package; I kind of like the silver
- I also got the Burmester
- I didn't get the head up display, logo projector or heated steering wheel (a bit self indulgent!)

Do share a photo. When is yours due? My dealership is saying that based on the 2/27 arrival date to Los Angeles it will be up in northern CA ready for delivery mid March (I suspect they're being conservative).

My car is still at the VPC in Baltimore. I'll share pictures once I get the car. Also, I changed my mind on the heated steering wheel, because I really wanted the flat bottom steering wheel.
