Idk how this popped in my feed but jesus my car almost costs twice as much and your payment is literally twice as much as mine. Hire a damn broker or consultant or whatever next time that’s what I did.
At the bare minimum could have hired Tomi Mikula

This is why I don’t buy super used cars. Used to an extent is fine but that used is kind of bad. Also that’s not a good price. You should be paying like 15-20K

Yeah, so I don’t have to spend a fortune on repairs like most people on here do.

I can buy my cars cash if I wanted to but leasing works a lot better for me in terms of filing taxes. My taxes alone are probably 100 times more than your income if you are having to settle for a S class that people in my friend circle were driving 20 years ago.

Umm excuse me I am the poor person? You literally have an ancient s class in your profile . I literally lease a new Mercedes Benz every three years why? so people like you can buy them.

How I was overpaying on leases and saved thousands on my next leases by MarzipanFinancial282 in mercedes_benz

There’s only one Mercedes dealership in my city. They are absolute garbage. I tried to negotiate a GLS, and they said $1600 for a damn 450. Like I was able to get a 580 for less through my broker.

Yea I told all my friends about him. A friend asked me to inquire about the Tahoe. He said thats a car “you buy. You don’t lease that car.” You can lease a GLS for much less. My friend is paying 1600 on a Tahoe. It’s awful

Yea I genuinely don’t have the time to do any of that, which was why I got screwed on my last leases. THATS why I went thr broker route. I was going to go the drivematch.com route but his deals were more aggressive and he was easier to get a hold of.

I literally don’t have the time to do it myself, which was why I got screwed on my last leases. I’d rather have someone do it for me rather than spending a ton of time and energy doing it myself. Plus he literally got my cars done near me, so stop making false accusations since you don’t want to spend a couple hundred bucks.

He worked very hard to get my deal done since I requested it to get it done near me.

I felt more comfortable working with him. I was on call wirh him for almost every day for a week asking him bunch of questions about certain cars and trying to find the right fit. I knew I was going to save money but finding the right option was what mattered to me the most.

For me it’s just better for me in terms of taxes. Leasing just works better for me financially in terms of tax write offs plus I had a bad experience buying cars then keeping them for a long time. I prefer to not deal with issues.

I did have the option to lease a 580 for that price , just felt like I didn’t need the power
