MBZ Credit: Min. Score for Lease?

    Does anyone know a.) what minimum score Mercedes Benz Credit looks for to qualify for an auto lease and b.) what bureau they pull?

    I'm looking at assuming someone else's lease - no money down (except $450 transfer fee), 12 months left on the term. I'm thinking that perhaps the score guidelines will be relaxed slightly because the original lessee is still financially responsible if I bail - my scores are in the mid to high 600's but not yet 700, which is what I'm afraid is the minimum.

    Thanks for your input!

    I recently leased a Mercedes Benz with credit scores around 660. They pulled Trans Union when making the decision.

    a! re:MBZ Credit: Min. Score?

    Since I originally posted this question I paid off all my credit cards... my scores went up to 730, 730 and 780.

    APPROVED! Since I originally posted this question I paid off all my credit cards... my scores went up to 730, 730 and 780. They pulled TU, which was 730. The sales rep told me that they look for anything over 700.

    My E320 is sooooo nice - my first NEW car! I worked hard for this! =)
