I happen to partially disagree with no add ons. In general that is good advice, however, this is my 3rd Audi I am on and the one thing that is worth the money is their Audi care plan. It provides all maintenance for the first 4 years and it is about $750.
 
Unless you do all maintenance yourself, you will save money by paying up front. Also, on one of my Audis I had some real reliability issues and having the Audi care helps eliminate any potential for them to look at you as being at fault.
 
They will have the warranty and maintenance responsibility. Considering these cars are pushing the upper edge on technology it should be thought that maintenance will be expensive and a warranty claim is possible.
 
Peace of mind counts for something, but in this case it also makes financial sense.

Hi guys, this is my 1st time here in the forum & need your help on deciding on how much exactly I should pay for this car.
 
Here are the options
 
2013 Audi A4 2.0T Premium Plus Sedan
Premium Plus Package ($4,200)
Audi MMI Navigation Plus Package ($3,050)
Audi Guard All-Weather Floor Mats ($250)
 
MSRP - $44,060 & dealer (in MD) agreed to give this for $44,310.12 (on the road price including everything)
 
I currently own a 09 BMW (which I didn't tell them yet) & I think I can get $1000 off because of this? Also I'll try to see whether I can get a good deal with trade in this car as well?
 
What's the best way of approaching this? Should have a firm final price for the new car & then talk about the trade in?
Or should we talk about a final price including both?
 
Please help me. thanks!

That sounds like a straight. Actually it is about 100.00 too low so make sure they are including the destination and dealer processing fees. A lot of dealers will exclude these fees until you're in the dealership. You must ask point blank. When we give you a price of any kind it ALWAYS includes these fees. As for your trade, you're already at invoice price for the Audi so do not expect to get KBB numbers on your trade. Just nothing left to use and yes you will qualify for the 1000.00 comp. discount.

Hi... would appreciate any advice on the following. I am looking at a Certified Pre-Owned 2011 A4 sedan 2.0T quattro with Premium Plus pkg. It has 38,000 miles on it, and the dealer is asking $28,350. I feel the mileage is high for this price, and am sure I can negotiate down, but not sure what a fair price would be, from my vantage point. The Edmunds TMV price, when I put in all the options, etc., comes to $28,750. However, I can't believe this is correct, as there's no way the dealer would start under TMV (unless I don't understand the TMV correctly or didn't process it correctly). Anyway, just looking for advice on what I can reasonably get this car for. Also, should I be asking for service records for this car? I'm concerned about the oil consumption issues I've been reading about. Thanks for any advice.

Hello, I am looking at a CPO 2013 Audi Allroad Premium Plus with 5000 miles on it, and they are asking $45,500 in Minn/St.Paul, Minnesota. This is not far off a brand new car without CPO. Is this a fair price? Is it worth it just for CPO if the price of a new car similarly optioned but without CPO at invoice is about the same? What is the wholesale price? Thanks.

Hi
I'm looking to purchase a 2013 Audi A4 2.0T Premium Quattro (2.0L 4-cyl. Turbo AWD 8-speed Automatic) (Northern Jersey)
Options include:
   Premium Plus
   Audi MMI Navigation Plus Package
   Audi Advanced Key
   Audi Guard All-Weather Floor Mats
I am eligible for the $1k Conquest Incentive
 
I think a good deal would be $39.5k (with incentive), MSRP ($43.5k) but do you think I can get a better deal?
Thanks for any insight

Invoice on car is $40.5k before 1k incentive. Do dealers typically negotiate the Audi Care Plan as well into the price of the car?
Thanks for your help

I would say 39.5 is the maximum. There are plenty of dealers that would do that deal if the car is on their lot. A C is not in the price. I don't recommend it but some people feel comfortable paying 700.00 for peace of mine. Most dealers offer 50% off the maintenance anyway so if you do if that way it is less than the up front charge of purchasing Audi Care.
 
There is still a profit of at least 1200.00 built into the car if you get it for 39.5. That does not include the back end of the deal which could be another 2k in profit.
