You're talking about deals 'today'. Most of those on the board got ours quite some time back and those deals wouldn't be extant today with market changes. Hope you get the info you want though!

Whatever you want to think is all up to you... don't be surprised if you see that magic GLK driving down the road with someone else behind the wheel.... GLK inventory is tight already nationwide and will be squeaky dried up everywhere in the next few days.. and frankly the "best value" GLK's are MSRP $46K-$49K... but what you want for your GLK and what you think are your business, not mine..

Finalized the deal at 31,500 on the same 38915 MSRP GLK. Where there is a will there is a way.

Hi T.H.,
Can you give me the dealer for the e350?

Now back to the E350 situation here:


Because non P1 luxury pkg is a 53k car, then apply 11k off that everyone is getting.
I calc this at 9% tax rate.

MSRP 53k
Cap Cost 42k
MF .00148
Residual 69%
mi/month 10k/27months

Drive off = $2000 ish (1st month / bank fee / reg)
Monthly + Tax = $350

Just add roughly $12 per month for each $1000 dollar over the sample 53k msrp car. If you want an estimate of how much on a loaded car cost.

Newbie here. Looking at getting my first MB. Talked to the dealer yesterday about financing vs lease. They're offering me a 2 yr lease, 15k miles/yr on a glk 350 with a sticker of $54,765 for $16835 up front. They're giving me more than that for my trade in so it's hard to say no to money back in my pocket and no vehicle payment for 2 years. Thinking about being picky and waiting the extra couple months to have one ordered so I get the diamond white with the interior color I want and all the options.

Lindsay,


Don't settle for less than what you want. Get the options that you want, along with the colors. Do your research and find out which options you must have. I've seen it many, many times where people didn't get the options they wanted or color they wanted and were less than satisfied. It's always more pricey to add options after the fact, but with MB, it's normally cost prohibitive vs. getting it from the factory, if it's possible at all.


Best of luck in your potential purchase!

Exactly. I don't know why people buy cars they don't want and hope they can turn it into the car they wanted, but there are plenty of examples even in this very forum. When they ask if feature xyz can be added, the answer is almost always that it cannot. Even if it could be added and didn't cost an arm and a leg to do so, if you're leasing then it's not your car to modify* and doing so is expressly against the terms of the lease.

(*I'm talking about permanent modifications, not reversible changes like wheels.)

Thanks guys, the one they were offering me has everything I told them was a must and is only lacking the park assist, interior lighting package and it's in steel grey (which I said was an option but don't like it quite as much as the diamond white). I've been driving around a full size crew cab pickup for the last 3 years so I figure if I can get that thing parked without any trouble I shouldn't have too much trouble with the glk that being said, I did shoot off an email to my dealer after my initial post telling him I'd just like to order since I'm not in a rush. Probably will put the park assist on there for fear that I'd regret not doing so.

I have the interior ambient lighting package. Don't bother with that. It's not worth $300. I'm not even sure it would be worth $30, to be honest.

On the other hand, I have the parking assist package with 360 camera and highly recommend getting that. You're right that the GLK is not large and certainly is easier to maneuver than your truck, but still, visibility out the back is not great and the cameras with parking sensors are really nice to have.
