Wow, killer deal...and the one ssanders1 got back at the end of 07.
 
I've been looking to replace my 01 325i...looked at TL, G35, Accord Coupe, etc, and stoppped in the Audi dealership on a whim. Loved driving the A3.
 
They showed me...
 
- 08 A3 black/black
- 8,800 miles (service loaner)
- S-Line (and maybe IPOD?)
- ext. warranty
- priced at 28,900
 
Sounds like I ought to be able to get one more fully equipped, new, for a lot less, eh?

I think that's way too high, but you'll need to elaborate on what options this car has.
 
I just got 2 separate emails from 2 area dealerships advertising their 08 A3s inventory for $3500-4500 off MSRP (and that's before any negotiating).
 
Was offered a manual 2.0 w/Xenon, Sport Pkg, Open Sky, Cold Weather Pkg, Convenience Pkg, Bluetooth for $31.5 OTD with Audi care (taxes are 6% where I live, tags about $250).
 
This is a great time to negotiate prices down on a used A3 or just buy a new one, especially with the refreshed 09s due shortly.

Seriously consider a CPO. Was told the break in period will determine how the car will last. Most CPO are lease return. Does any one having problem with lease CPO.

I'd tell him that you would much rather special-order an '09 that has just the options you want, instead of paying top dollar for an over-laden '08 leftover that has "junk that you don't want"...particularly if you want to talk him down on the '08 leftover.
 
You can also mention that you know that Audi has been accepting 2009 orders on their computer system for a couple of months now, so he can go in "right now" and put in your order, as soon as the two of you agree on a price.
 
BTW, here's the change point list for the 2009 A3 from marketwatch.com:
 
    MSRP
    A3 2.0T Front Manual $26,920 A3 2.0T quattro S tronic $30,500
    A3 2.0T Front S tronic $28,400 A3 3.2 quattro S tronic $36,975
 
    -- Exterior and Interior freshening including new wheels.
    -- 2.0T S tronic now available with quattro all-wheel drive.
    -- New simplified offer structure concept.
 
    Standard Equipment Changes
 
    -- Hill-hold assist - now standard on 2.0T manual (already standard on
       S tronic models)
    -- Sirius satellite radio - now standard on all
    -- Leather seating surfaces - now standard on all
    -- Flexmetallic interior trim - replaces Matte interior trim on 2.0
    -- Leather steering wheel - now standard
    -- Aux audio input - standard on all
    -- Ashtray / Smoker pkg - deleted on all (replaced with storage tray)
    -- 3.2 only: Standard Bluetooth, Bi-xenon headlamps with LED DRL, and
       Open Sky
    -- 3.2 only: No longer standard Symphony, Sport Suspension, Sport Seats
 
    Option Program Changes
 
    -- New offer structure concept
    -- Discontinued: iPod adapter (replaced by standard Aux-input), Wood
       trim, Sunshades for rear side windows, Premium Vienna leather
    -- New options: Audi magnetic ride, Sport package
 
FWIW, I was out in LA around two weeks ago, and based on the highways that I drove on, I'd not want 18" wheels or the S-Line package - - the standard 17's and suspension are IMO firm enough for highway runs; be sure to test-drive to make sure that there's not too much NVH.

I just wanted Lava Gray + audio package, but the dealer said this is the closest they could find "in the state." I requested a quote for the 2009 model with the exact options that I want. Shoud I go for this loaded 2008 model or wait for the 2009 model?
