just checked out the autofest website. pretty attractive lease deals...but whats the catch? how are you able to carry out these deals with $0 down? is the bank fee the killer?

my dad is looking to lease a new car in the next few weeks. i understand if you PM me if youd like to keep it private.

Last week - I left too early, missed the ML to snap a pic. I delivered the E350 right before I left friday, and the C class came after I left but I did go back to work saturday night after the sabbath and delivered it:

E350 4Matic Sport with P1, AMG wheel package and lip spoiler - Indium Grey/Almond MB Tex




C300 is nothing special, Sport model 4Matic with P1 - Black/Black





....And some cars from this week:

RR Lux - Black/Black - I F'ing love this thing...





Q5 3.2 Premium Plus - Deep Sea Blue/Cinnamon Leather




Traverse LTZ - Impressed me...Pretty nice!




And the rest weren't picture worthy, Honda Accord LX-P (2 of them), Camry, Highlander and CX9

I love Range Rovers. I had a white 04 a few years back that I bought for the dlr I worked for. Drove it for a couple weeks...what a great vehicle but terrified of maintenance.

Drove this down to FL to deliver to a customer last week...Door to door service, that's how I roll

Left Brooklyn, NY on Wednesday, 10:45pm - arrived in South Florida (Miami) at 4:53pm Thursday. Averaged 21.7 mpg (at speeds between 70-85mph), managed close to 500 miles to the tank.




The perfect combination....Tom Tom, V1 and a Starbucks Double Shot..


Drove back to NY on Saturday night, left about 11:45pm, arrived 6pm Sunday. I took back his lease return and drove it home. 328i coupe, which I also drove down to him 3 years ago. I averaged 30.4 mpg at speeds of 75-80, also squeezed out close to 500 miles to the tank...
He doesn't use as many miles on his car, so he had plenty to use and didn't care about the fact that his car will come with 1300 miles on it before he even signs the paperwork. Quick pic of the protein on the front of the 3 I drove back...

How do you take care of all the dead bugs when doing long-distance deliveries? Might want to look into covering the front end with painter's tape or something similar.

But wow, I'd love to have your job. On the off chance you decide to move your business to Toronto and need help with deliveries, haha.

I get it washed. More than once if I have to. When going to south FL, I go to http://aventurascarwash.com/ , they are a bit more expensive ($20)than the basic wash, but it's a hand wash, they are meticulous and do a great job in 20 minutes or less. The cars you would see them washing are more than likely in the higher end of the pricing spectrum, too, so the people going to them are people that care about their cars..

Those were the standard wheels, yes. They looked a heck of a lot better in person, though..

There's a $100,000 rebate on the car, too... If this goes through I would probably sell it somewhere in the $380k-385k range.

You could buy a Mustang GT for the price of the "partition wall with intercom package".
