Replying to: rjorge3 (Sep 08, 2008 10:17 am) My payment per month is $583.00, they discounted 2100 off the MSRP price 40500 - 2200, came out to around $38,300. |

Replying to: luvlee824 (Sep 08, 2008 10:38 am) The monthly pmts that I calculated now is $521.33 which is not too bad. I was comtemplating the Acura TL Type S, (08), but the lease comes out to $500+ and although it has all the toys, I miss the way my 05 handled. Is there any loyalty discounted for having owned a audi before? I just returned mine last month. Last, did they have the car in stock or did you order it? if you ordered, how long did you have to wait? Thanks again,

With invoice on the 2009 A4 so close to MSRP, I looked around edmunds.com to see what % of profit there is on the A4 vs. some other cars. Turns out (including holdback) that a Honda Civic is 10%, Acura TL 11%, Porsche Cayman 13%, BMW 335 8%, and Audi only 7%. The Porsche makes sense as a lower volume premium vehicle. The Audi/BMW vs. Honda/Acura comparison clearly indicates that the A4 & 335 have profit hidden somewhere that consumers can't access. Premium brands would clearly have higher profit per vehicle compared to very high volume brands (Honda/Toyota) with less expenive product. Could this be why for a new, significantly improved A4, people are already reporting being able to purchase at invoice?? An A4 ~$1600 below edmunds.com invoice would make the (consumer accessible) profit % in line with the Acura TL. If anyone has data on where the rest of the A4 profit is hidden it would be greatly appreciated!!

Replying to: waygrabow (Sep 19, 2008 6:21 pm) I think the answer is more simple - a few manufacturers have realized that most educated consumers compare their final deal on a new vehicle to either 1) savings off of MSRP or 2) amount paid compared to "invoice". You can see comments on most of the Prices Paid & Buying Experience threads on most vehicles where people compare their deals to MSRP and/or Invoice. By raising the invoice amount to a falsely inflated number, Audi, BMW, and probably others are able to make consumers feel like they have gotten a bargain and the car manufacturers still make the same profits they always have. Good marketing, but bad for buyers' wallets. |
