Hi everyone new GLC 300 owner from bay area here!
Recently I signed a lease for my 2018 GLC 300 4matic (with premium package, heated front seats and etc. MSRP:45675). I was able to get a 9% off total price and a $1500 discount for fleet program. For the lease I put $5000 down and a monthly payment of 537 (after tax). At the time of signing I thought I got a decent deal. But then later when I searched through internet I found someone in bay area as well who leased the same model (slightly different options but almost the same MSRP) and they had a $524 monthly payment and 0 down payment (they also mentioned a $483 drive off total which I assume is for the other fees). I was shocked thinking that I paid like 5-6k more for the same lease. Wanted to ask you guys how do you feel about the deal I get? Is it fair/decent or did I get hacked really hard? This is the first time I leased a car so I can't really tell. Please help!
Also I was asked to buy three years of prepaid maintenance for $1575 which now I have realized is way too high. I will talk to my dealer to return it.
Thanks for everyone's help in advance!
PS. Tax rate at bay area is 9% so the price is a bit high in general.
