Guys, I know there are C63 leases to be had at cheaper per month, but I honestly swear you will not come across another coupe equipped like this. It's one of 100 and I get a ton of attention. Way too much at times. The car has been babied and washed religiously only with Dr. Beasley's matte car wash.
Looking to purchase an investment property so this may have to go...

And now for some pictures.

Thanks for the kind words guys. Sukhi: your brother will not be dissapointed. The car is crazy scary fast and loud as hell. No replacement yet. Not sure. Might scoop up a good deal if something becomes available. Either way I take the train every day so this is just my weekend car. Barely drive 5000 miles per year. So not in any hurry to find a replacement.
 
Thanks guys. Is it bad that I feel like an adoption agency screening people to make sure they will actually care for the car the way I have? ha. I'm crazy I know. I should make all applicants fill out a questionaire. "How many times do you plan on washing the car? How many days per week will the car be garaged? Have you had any accidents in the past 3 years?" Ha I will be pre-qualifying all interested parties. Just kidding...
 
Looks like a fellow ISer may be taking this beast off of my hands! So much happier about that rather then it being some random person from swapalease.com. I will keep you guys posted this week....
 
Hey guys, I felt compelled to give everyone an update as to what has been happening on this car in the last four months. So let's see, where to begin....
Long story short, seven people have applied with Mercedes Benz financial services to take over this lease and all seven have been declined. Unbelievably frustrating.
Mercedes keeps declining people left and right with zero explanation or accountability whatsoever. It's unreal.
Apparently after doing some research on my own, Mercedes does not like lease transfers. They will actually decline somebody on a lease transfer and then approve that same person on a new lease just so they can move another car.
I guess the moral of the story (and this is really why I wanted to post this), is for those of you entertaining the idea of leasing a Mercedes, you will probably end up having to keep it until the lease matures! Be careful guys.
And on a brighter, unrelated note, I've taken the car out for the first time after three months of it just sitting in the garage collecting dust. It really is a beauty IMHO... I snapped a couple of pics after washing, servicing, and filling it with gas.
