I just bought a Tesla Model X in March and yesterday bought Ford Raptor. I have trouble justifying the cost of the s560 but want a soft cushy car for long trips and what not. It wouldn't see a lot of action so its just hard to pay $1600 a month on a lease that would consume very very few miles.

The residuals have recently been updated but I think they haven't changed. You may have to confirm though. Residual should still be at 48% for 15k miles, so 7500 bring it to 52%. No discounted MF so you can expect .0025. Dealer will like to markup this rate so be prepared to see a higher rate. You can negotiate that down though.

There is is also a lower auto-approve MF of .00230 if your history with MB and credit score matches their criteria. I learned that from one of the moderators here so this is the number one should negotiate for if you are a repeat buyer of high-end MB models and have Tier 1A credit.
Again, this only matters for cars that have non-discounted lease rates (AMG, S-Class coupes, G Wagons, etc.)

My pleasure. Dealers always love to talk about the monthly rate instead of the details that make up that number. No need give the dealer money on selling price and the financing.
