When You Should Lease
Leasing is the alternative to buying. Instead of purchasing a new model, you're essentially "borrowing" it for a set amount of time. Most lease agreements last anywhere from one to three years.
This route is perfect for any driver who always wants the newest features. When you lease, you can easily upgrade to a new Mercedes-Benz vehicle every few years and take advantage of the cutting-edge innovation that it has to offer.
Leasing a car also means a more predictable cost of ownership. Many of the typical maintenance tasks you need to keep up with will likely be covered under your lease agreement. Leasing a car also costs less money upfront than buying a new vehicle. And since you're only paying for the depreciation value of the vehicle during your agreement, your monthly payments will also be less.
When You Should Buy
Buying from our Florida dealership is a better idea if you want to own your own Mercedes-Benz model. After you pay off your loan, the car is all yours. You just have to worry about insurance and the other fees that come with car ownership.
When you purchase, you are also able to customize your vehicle to how you see fit. Modifications are not allowed if you lease a car. How much you plan to drive can also affect your decision to buy or lease. Most lease agreements limit how much you can drive each year-putting too many miles on the odometer means extra fees, but that's not a problem when you buy.
