Replying to: kduda1 (Nov 13, 2008 7:39 pm) A 2.0 Premium Plus with Nav at invoice (easily attainable) is $37ish. A 3.2 Premium Plus with Nav at $1000 below MSRP is $42ish. Only you can decide if the $5k price difference is worth it. 1/2 second faster 0-60, slightly smoother engine and 3mpg WORSE fuel economy isn't worth 5 grand to me, but it's up to you. Drive the 2.0t - I think you'll find it surprisingly nice. Better yet, skip the Audi's crappy navigation system and pick up a portable for a couple hundred bucks. That'll save you another $2500. Audi dealers tend to not stock many cars with nav systems anyway (again, for good reason). There...I just saved you $7000. |

Replying to: silverspork1 (Nov 14, 2008 9:19 am) Dealer A - Prestige Delaer B - Stammler Dealer C - Phil Long I dealt with the sales manager at all 3 dealerships. All 3 were very easy to work with, and I would recommend any of them. The deal largely depends on their current inventory, as they are much more willing to give you a better price for cars on the lot. My advice is to call and ask for the sales manager and tell them that the best price you've gotten is X and ask them if they can beat it. Make up X based on what you think you can get the car for. I got a Premium Plus with metallic paint. National invoice is around $35,352 including the destination. Colorado dealers will tell you that THEIR invoice is 35,734.88 to account for advertising, etc. They also all charge dealer handling fees of some sort. I was leasing, so my total cap cost included a $625 acquisition fee. I don't think there is an acquisition fee when purchasing, but I could be wrong. If I were you, I would use $35,300 as my starting point. Call up the sales managers and tell them that you've been quoted a total selling price (including all dealer fees but NOT the acquisition fee) of $35300 and ask them if they can beat it. If they have the car on their lot, you should be able to get it for slightly below that. My total cap cost including the $625 acquisition fee was $35700 for a Premium Plus with metallic paint (a $400+ option). All the numbers mentioned above are for the vehicle I purchased. You will need to adjust the numbers if you aren't looking at the Premium Plus with metallic paint. Hope this helps.

After all it is a great car,and you should enjoy it for it long time." His quote, his poor grammar and punctuation, his assumption that the other dealership was in Houston. My loss of a car I've waited on for 8 months and 8 months' worth of interest on my deposit. On the bright side, at 3:00 Monday I'll have $43,200 more than I otherwise would have had. My recommendation: Don't shop at Brian Harris BMW/Porsche/Audi in Baton Rouge, LA. |

need some help on how to approach the salesperson ... when I walk into the dealer, should I negotiate as if I am buying and only say I am here for a lease AFTER we reach the sale price? I am concerned that if I say upfront that I am leasing, I won't be able to pick the car first. here is the lease deal I am considering: http://www.socalaudidealers.com/audi/regional_aoa/socal/extra_hero.html

Replying to: azuay (Nov 16, 2008 8:06 pm) 1. MSRP 2. Purchase price 3. Residual value. 4. Lease term (months) 5. Money factor. There are certainly other things involved but they are pretty minor and if you know these five parameters you can calculate the actual monthly payment yourself. (I always ask them for the 6th number-the monthly payment-just to make sure!!). BTW I always tell them I want a "wrapped" lease payment that includes the taxes- after all that is what I must come up with each month. I just leased an A4 Quattro 2.0T Premium Plus with wood trim package (MSRP= 38,400) and 12k miles/year for a hair above the deal you quote. I am not home right now but later tonight I will post all the parameters above for you to compare. BTW, since I am a "loyal" Audi customer they were willing to lower the money factor from the already fantastic rate being offered in the add!! This is something not many people talk about but this will get you to the deal you want!! Supposedly the regional sales managers have "coupons" (how hoaky!!) that the sales people can ask (or beg) for and they offered me one of these. Didn't really understand what they were going to do but when they printed up my final papers I saw that they cut $25/month from the payment by lowering the money factor! Oh well. |

Replying to: kduda1 (Nov 15, 2008 5:12 pm) Conclusion: I'm the proud new owner of one super fine Ice Metallic Silver '09 A4 3.2 Premium Plus w/ navigation who has no idea how she's going to keep the foot out of the accelerator!!! The car sounds as great as it looks, and I'm very happy and satisfied with my purchase (even if it wasn't anywhere near invoice price)!
