My friend just leased a C300 4matic - kind of a stripped version - paying about $750 a month, 36 months, 15K year. Acquisition fee only down. MN tax 6.5% rolled back into the payments.
Lease compare pegs your situation at about $760 mo.

Agreed. $419 a month for C300 is a rip-off. Although I haven't seen E550's for that low, you can definitely lease an E550 for high 400's and E350 for mid-high 300's.

An e550 Lease in the $400's 
NFWay.
Not even if you leased it for 60 months and didn't drive it.
The base MSRP (e550 4matic sport) is $61750 and the residual after 36 months is +/- $28K. Given a 5% MF (.00212), you're @ $1230 a month/36 months when you roll-in 6.5 Tax.. Even without it you're at $1150/mo.
Likewise, base MSRP on an e350 4matic is $53K - residual is under $26K. $300's? Uh, no.
Pls post where these math-defying deals are on the e350/e550 4matics - include: MSRP/MoneyFactor/Residual/Term (36 months)/Acquistion Fee/Miles Per Year/tax included or not.

That is less than 1/2 of the payment amount that I've seen on e350 4matic sport leases (and at 36 months).
Even if one could buy an e350 4matic for $45,000 (MSRP $54K), $500 Acquisition, $4500 Down, Residual of $26,000, MF of 5% (.002), No Tax, 24 Months = $759
My fiancee needs a new ride - I need to get in on this deal. Pls tell me @ what dealer.
