McLaren SLR Lease Deal

Just for kicks I checked out the Mercedes site. Who knew you could lease a McLaren SLR for only 10,835/month for 36months, 12k miles/year, 0 down. Insane deal!!!! Ha, what is that? A $2 million home mortgage?

10k a month really isnt that bad. considering the fact you are getting a supercar that will pick up more pussy than vinny chase.

a lot of people could probably afford that for a few months. then go bankrupt.

I like the CLK 63 BS more than that car. Similar performance with the Evosport mods. The looks of the BS floats my boat more than the SLR imo. If image is what you are going for, why not?! 10k a month is too much! Get a Clk 63 BS for 1/6 the price.

Those numbers don't make sense. There is no benefit to leasing that with those numbers. You can buy one for around $350k.

Got to drive one for a few miles, soooooooo sweet. 10k a month for 36 months? Isnt that almost the total price of the car? My friend paid something around 450k last year?

Then your friend either got ripped-off or likes to embellish. The thing has pretty standard size 19s. You could replace all four of them with mounting and balancing at the ridiculous dealership prices for under $2500. Let's assume it has some very rare, one-off tires (not even the case with the Enzo) and double that amount to $5k - still no where close.

There are hundreds of cars I would take over that car. I never understood the hype. A supercar will never have an auto tranny. SMG/F1 yes regular auto no way in hell. Offer a STICK. Mecedes is DUMB AS HELL for making such a joke of a car. 10k a month is a steal though.

The bugatti veyron has an automatic. Are you saying that isn't a supercar?

And 10k a month isn't a steal... well for the dealership it is...

You do not have to shift it if you don't want to. That is an automatic.
