APR/LEASE RATE: 0.90%
MONTHLY PAYMENT: $457.48
ANNUAL INCOME: $48k+
DEBT TO INCOME RATIO: 13%
MISCELLANEOUS COMMENTARY: I have been researching cars online for several months and recently switched from wanting a Nissan to a Mazda.  Made the mistake of forgetting my contact info was configured into my Truecar app so of course I've been getting non-stop calls all day from different dealerships.  Anyway, had my Truecar price locked in and the best they were going to do was like 2.99% apr for 60 months so me and my sister said we'd be back with what my credit union was offering me (which I then said was 1.39%).  She doesn't even have her car started and of course the finance guy is running after us wanting to know how he could keep our business.  They had to "do away" with the Truecar price to get me the 0.9% but the price it changed to was only $500 above the Truecar which was less than Edmunds' true market value so I figure I've saved that in interest payments.

To the credit of the dealer they were honest and pretty straightforward in this transaction.  I study the industry and subscribe to trade journals and have learned a lot this year.  One thing that is really clear is that they make money on marking up interest which most customers don't know.  In this case the tradeoff of raising the price 500 bucks and lowering the interest was fair.  They also didnt tell you that by dumping that Truecar price meant they didnt have to pay Truecar either.  You got a great APR and a great car and you will save more than 500 bucks versus the the 2.99 they were offering.

Excellent choice, EddieK!  beautiful car!

 

That must be a monster when you get to the on ramp for the Interstate! 

 

Is this your first AMG model?

 

I am huge fan, but cant afford them right now.

 

I am the part of the Mercedes mantra that says 'The Best, or nothing at all'.  I dont have the best, I got the nothing part, Smiley Very Happy

 

Hope you dont draw the attention of the law enforcement too much.

Thank you for the compliment!  Yes, this is my 1st AMG and sadly I haven't driven it hard yet.  I kept my Honda Accord which I drive to/from work.  The little I have driven it, it's a blast, hope to test the speed in the near future.  Thanks again for the nice words and when the opportunity presents itself and you're deciding on whether or not to get an AMG, get it without hesitation.

MISCELLANEOUS COMMENTARY: They actually approved me to where I didn't have to payoff/trade my other auto loan with them. They really approved it based on 26.5 debt to income, but I am paying off that other auto loan with the trade. I've been a member with them since June and have auto history. I aggressively have been paying the old auto loan, too.
