S550 lease ends in March and im just at my mileage limit.....i think contract says $0.29/mile. Id like to know if it is a better option to buy miles now or just pay for them later, or just park the car and lease something else? Where is the best option to do this through?.....the dealership?, any dealership in particular?....or thru MBUSA?

thx in advance

I'd get a new car, especially if you plan to lease again. If you're gonna be paying .29cents/mile for something, might as well be something as new as possible with the latest and greatest features.

i am getting a new lease later on, but i dont want to just keep the S550 in the garage for 8 months taking up space until i have to turn it in in March 2010. That wont happen so ill probably be driving it and want to find a more reasonable per-mile price.

It seems you can buy additional miles from MB Financial mid-lease (3 mo. prior to or earlier) at a 5-10 cent discount.

Another user was able to negotiate his lease penalty charges down 10% on the phone with MB financial after he received the final bill.
