So you can get a decently equiped C240 vs a loaded to the gills Accord.


Nothings changed, just now you can lease thats really all thats changed.
Yep....the advent of "cheap" leases has been tied to low interest rates. When interest rates creep up, cheap leases will go away and they will have to think of other ways to move their cars.

Also, cheap leases means that there will be more "lightly used" Benzes in the market in the near future.
