09 A3 2.0T S-tronic fwd Premium Convenience Nav Open Sky MRSP: $36,050 Price quoted: $32,995 I should start by saying I've never leased a car before. I usually just buy them. I went in purchase this car for cash on the best price I could negotiate. I'm also looking to trade in my 2000 S4 w/110k mi. They only offered me $5k for my trade. Then I asked what the lease terms would be if I applied the $5k trade as my cash down. 36 mo/10,000 miles/yr MSRP: 36,050 Residual %: 52% Initial cap cost: 32,995 Lease Money Factor: .00110 Monthly payment: 386.36 Any advice? I know I should get more for my trade but they gave me the story about how hard these cars (older S4s) are to sell at auction these days, blah, blah. If I just buy the car outright is 3K off MSRP typical? It was the best "Internet offer" I received. |

Hi guys. I have a 2006 A3 on lease in New England. The lease expires next month. I would like to buy the car. The residual is about $16k. I heard that dealers can buy it for $1k less than the residual. Audi currently has a "down to 0.9% APR on certified pre-owned cars" special advertised. This probably won't apply to the A3, but meh... this post is for someone to check my math. I can get bank/CU finance  5.99% APR. State tax is 7.5%. It seems the math goes like this: Car value: 16k Tax: 1200 Cost to buyout lease = $17200. If I finance with the bank/CU over 3 years, the payments are about $519, for a total of about $1500 in interest. Which is where it gets interesting...... Say the dealer buys it for $15k and certifies it as a pre-owned car (extra warranty etc) and then sells it to me for $18455 incl tax (approx $2175 profit before tax, certification and warranty fees). At 0.9% APR, that works out to the SAME $519/month for 36 months. So... the dealer gets money.... I get an extra warranty. Not sure if the leftover from the $2175 is going to be worth it to the dealer though ? Thoughts/comments/etc ?

It sounds like you had a very positive dealer experience. If you'd like, you can share even more details about it by stopping by the Dealer Ratings & Reviews section of Edmunds.com.

Replying to: botero (Jan 08, 2009 12:53 pm) Since we're already here, here's the info that you're looking for. Audi's lease program for the 2009 A4 varies by trim level, term, and mileage allowance. I will have to make some assumptions since you never mentioned what these variables are. Audi Financial Services' current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2009 Audi A4 2.0T Sedan Premium with quattro and 15,000 miles per year are .00127 and 52%, respectively. BMW Financial Services' current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2009 BMW 328i with 15,000 miles per year are .00175 and 57%.
