Does anyone know when the price increase is set to take place ?
 
I visited two dealers in the Chicago area yesterday and was told Dec. 31st by one, Jan. 15th by the other.
 
Was wondering if anyone had a definitive answer ?

I have heard from two dealers that the price increase of $1000 will take effect on all cars purchased after January 1, 2005. The audiusa site is already reflecting the increase on the MSRP.

Which site are you looking at?? When I go to www.audiusa.com/a6, it still shows the $51,220 for the A6 4.2 which includes the $720 destination charge. They haven't updated the site in a while. You can't even get the Sport Package anymore, but they still have it listed as an option.

I believe that the 3.2 was list at $40,620, now it is at $41,620 and the 4.2 was at $50,220 now it is listed at $51,220, but I could be wrong.

Auditor,
 
I have an agreement signed by the dealer's sales manager and a VIN number for the car. As discussed, the 2005 A6 4.2, as ordered, has an MSRP of over $59,000. As reflected on the signed sales agreement, the agreed upon price is $55,300. Expected delivery is about 8 weeks from today (mid-February). So while you may be right, and the dealer may try to get out of the deal, I believe the dealer is going to have a hard time wiggling off the hook.

Unlike kgary1, I don't have a VIN number, but I do have a buyer's order signed by the Sales Manager for $1K over invoice (currently approx $48.5K) for delivery in mid-March. This is on a special order 3.2, nearly fully loaded (no sport suspension, parktronic, or sunshades; 17" wheels).
 
Salesman disclosed that MSRP increases by $1K on 1 February, but that my car should be in production by then, and that invoice is fixed when the order is placed. I suppose I get a VIN number at the same time the dealer gets an invoice price.

Two Seattle area dealers are both confirming the $1,000 price increase effective January 1. I read in a Motor Trend article earlier this year that Audi North America argued for a lower MSRP on the new A6 when preparing for the U.S. launch. Audi agreed and the pricing was published. Makes me wonder if the positive reception and/or the weak dollar have caused them to reconsider. Regardless of the reason it feels a little like "bait and switch". The dealers are using the price increase as leverage to get potential buyers to take existing inventory at MSRP.

Kevin:
 
Glad to hear you have the sales manager's signature and a VIN # on the order for your forthcoming A6 4.2.
 
If you actually conclude the deal you negotiated, you should start a business based on the approach
you used, and sell it to others for a modest fee!!
 
Be sure to let us know how things turn out in February.
