    Written by: Car_man on May 23, 2013 4:11:56 PM

    You're welcome marc68. The money factor that I mentioned does not include any dealer mark-up. It's high because Mercedes is not providing any lease support on the GL right now. Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum

    Written by: Car_man on May 13, 2013 4:11:40 PM

    Hello ginlei. Mercedes still is not providing any lease support on the 2013 GL. Its current residual value for a 36-month lease of a 2013 GL450 with 15,000 miles per year is 61%. The residual value for an otherwise identical lease of a 2013 GL550 is 56%. Mercedes' standard money factors vary by credit tier and perhaps by region. They would probably be around .00205 for Tier 1 customers. Car_man Host ... Read More

    Hi gmfcolorado. Mercedes-Benz is not currently providing any lease support on the 2013 GL550. As a result, it you were to lease one through Mercedes-Benz Financial you would have to use its standard lease money factor. That factor varies by credit tier, but to give you an idea of what it would be like, it's .00205 for Tier 1 customers. The residual value for a 36-month, 15,000 mile per year lease ... Read More

    Car Man, My Mercedes salesman is coming back stating that the 2013 (not 2012) GL450 money factor is 2x the 2012 models... So his .00305 is accurate - he says. He also has my residual on this 36 month 15k miles lease at 61%. Is that correct? Also is an Acquisition fee of $1,095 and Doc fee of $499 standard or are those negotiable? Thanks so much! -Jason
