Buying a E63
I am considering a new E63 w/PP. Is MB having any promotion going on in May? What type of discount can I expect? Anyone knows the MF for a 36 lease?
thanks in advance.

; and if there is a significant other, a E63 wagon would fit in nicely.Yo, you people over there next to the Pacific sure have lots of activities!

May numbers are not out yet...
April MF's on E63's was/is .00145 all terms (tier 1)
Things could change tomorrow. .00145 is one of the lowest numbers Ive ever seen from MBFS on a non subvented program. And its still an apr equivalent of 3.48% which is sky high.

The steering wheel, red calipers and carbon fiber engine cover all come with the PP along with the warranty covered 550hp and 590 tq but the big thing for me are the dampeners. The PP shocks are that much stiffer than the stock and reduce roll and body lean much better. My CLS handles so well for a big 4300 lb car. In the straights the car is planted at 150mph plus and in turns its very stable- even in big bends over 100 mph. Id rather give up some comfort for better chassis response and road feel along with dampener stiffness which yields better handling.
The shocks retail at 1095 each for the fronts and 850 each for the rears. Im not sure what the stock AMG shocks retail for but they are less. When buying a 100k car- whats 6 to 7k amongst friends LOL... and the car is definitely more attractive on resale IMHO.

What? You mean those Monroe shocks? Hopefully the retail price you mentioned get you a set of Bilstein's.

Having warranty covering things is definitely the best. As always, there is never enough hp and tq. However, a car that handles well is priceless. That's why Pirelli's slogan is particularly true: "Power is nothing without control."

I saw Monroe, made in Spain, and laughed and moved on
Bilstein manufacturing shocks for another manufacturer?

do u have the MF / residual % for May? (it is May 1st today
). Do u think it is possible to get the car at invoice or below invoice now? It has been out for almost a year and the BMW M5 is coming soon. Wonder whether MB is putting up some incentive to keep the clients around.thanks in advance

These are 15k miles per year numbers... add 2% for 12k 3% for 10k or 4% for 7500 miles per year:
E63 (non wagon)
24 months 60%
36 months 57%
48 months 45%
60 months 40%
I have no clue about an invoice call- I have shopped for a normal E63. It will depend on dealer allocation, motivation, demand, etc... Im sure you can get at least 5% off sticker which would be close to invoice.

Anyone take a look at the M5 build before it went down. If you add a lot of extras can get up in price but still well under an E63. Big difference is the lease rates and discounts on M5 which make it more expensive to lease than the E63.

not in canada. here the pricing of both the m5 and e63 are very close. after all options are tacked on each, the m5 might even be a smidge higher.
