#47 of 405 Re: Bought @ $1615 discount [designer8] by walkerhound1 Jul 31, 2005 (1:44 am)
Replying to: designer8 (Jul 30, 2005 3:59 pm) Annapolis MD. From what I've seen on other A3 boards, willingness to discount varies quite a bit from dealer to dealer. There are at least 6 Audi dealers in the Baltimore/DC area-- not sure whether that was a factor. I did not have to do a lot of dickering to get that price. Once I broached the pricing thing, the salesman came right to their bottom line-- which was greatly appreciated. Replies to this message: wunderkid (Oct 04, 2005 11:35 am)
#48 of 405 OK anyone try the 2.9% financing? by wco81 Aug 16, 2005 (5:26 pm)
This is listed on the Audi site. But it's 2.9% for 24 months on the A3? Presumably that's a lease but no mention of the monthly payment, which is typicaly headlined. Replies to this message: pmag (Aug 16, 2005 7:21 pm) kyfdx (Aug 17, 2005 5:58 am)

Replying to: wco81 (Aug 16, 2005 5:26 pm) As I understand it the 2.9%/24 is available for purchases of the A3 -- I'm not sure about lease. Audi is also doing 3.9%/36 and 4.9%/60 month (or 66 months if you prefer). Cheers, Paul Replies to this message: kyfdx (Aug 17, 2005 5:58 am)

Replying to: pmag (Aug 16, 2005 7:21 pm) Paul is correct... No payment listed, because it is a loan.. I think a 24 month payment would scare a lot of people off.. regards, kyfdx

Replying to: gotmine (May 10, 2005 9:46 am) Live in Bay Area. Talked to a few Audi dealers recently. They are willing to give around $800 off MSRP. They are not really that willing to negotiate. I told them some other manufacturers ( e.g. Acura, Infiniti ) offer invoice for their cars but they weren't moved. I finally decided to not buying the A3 for now caused I really don't know whether the value of this car can hold up. Remember BMW 318 ?? Will wait and see. Steve
#52 of 405 Leasing... by kyfdx HOST Aug 25, 2005 (8:26 pm)
I think I know why no one has reported leasing an A3.. Just looked at the 3yr/45K residuals... 48%-50%, depending on model... ouch.. Replies to this message: dl7265 (Aug 26, 2005 9:05 pm) kyfdx (Aug 26, 2005 9:32 pm) dl7265 (Aug 27, 2005 9:57 am) and 4 more... cosanostra (Aug 29, 2005 6:27 am)

Replying to: kyfdx (Aug 25, 2005 8:26 pm) from what i understand they want to "sell" the starter A3 model and have no intention of making great leasing deals .

Replying to: dl7265 (Aug 26, 2005 9:05 pm) If that is their intention, then they'll have no trouble.... because, no one will lease at those residuals... I think that is a hard way to go... Once you top $25K for a luxury import, you'll have more leasers than buyers... Seems like they are giving away a big piece of the market.. Maybe not so much on the $25K strippers.... but, a lot of them will be right around $30K..... $575/mo. finance payments will price a lot of people out of the market... Hopefully for the buyers, actual resale will be better than those residuals...

Replying to: kyfdx (Aug 26, 2005 9:32 pm) Totally agree. 48-50% residuals is what dodge numbers? YUK! DL Replies to this message: legar (Sep 01, 2005 3:04 pm) dl7265 (Sep 01, 2005 11:24 pm) legar (Sep 02, 2005 12:48 pm) and 1 more...

Replying to: kyfdx (Aug 26, 2005 9:32 pm) $575/mo. finance payments will price a lot of people out of the market... Without a significant raise I'm out. Too bad about the terrible leases. Test drove a 2.0 DSG and fell in love. Guess I'll have to drive the Camry a bit longer. -c
