Sl63
My E63 was coming off lease in Feb and I decided I wanted an SL63. The sticker on the one I wanted was 140k. They quoted me a lease price of 3325 a month for 39 months. Lets see, 3325 x 39 = 129,000. I told them "you seriously expect me to pay 130k of the 140k sticker price and then give the car back?". They said yes, sorry that's all we can do. I walked away.
Found another dealer in another state that gave me a SL63 for 2600 a month and they paid the last 5 lease payments on the E63. Which makes the total cost to me over the 39 months is 95k after you subtract the 5 payments. I couldn't believe that the price was over 30,000$ different between the 2 dealerships. So while I think it is true that leasing has become a more expensive option, I would shop around.
