March lease rates by liaguk

Hello Car_man,
Thank you for all your valueable advice and info - used it 3 years ago when leased my current car, looking at it again in preparation for the next one.
Can you get the run down for current residuals/money factors on:
A4 2.0 15K 24/36 months?
and if possible on A3 3.2 15K 24/36 months(I'll post it on A3 forum as well, but I know it does not get much traffic, since lease terms are so horiffic).
Thanks again.

Thanks for the information. About a month ago I went ahead with the SmartBuy program. Interest rate was about a percent higher than on the lease, but with the lower fees on both the acquisition, and release of the vehicle, it makes it easier to do the program.
 
Overall, unless there is a significant difference in the two interest rates at the time of purchase I prefer the smart buy program to this point in time.

Thanks Car Man.
 
You're correct, the RV of 54% was off...it was actually 56% (-2% for the S-line package and +1% for the Audi Care package).
 
However, I didn't pull the trigger and am now waiting to see the new figures as of today (Mar 6th). Can you please post these figures when you get them?
 
Thanks,
PuRe

CarMan,
 
I'm looking at the 2007 A4 2.0T CVT right now with Premium package. 10,000 miles/36 months
 
Dealer quoted me:
MSRP: $31,435
Price: $30,200
Residual: $18,232
Taxes: $2650 (Chicago registration)
Plates: $168 (New Plates)
Doc Fee: $58.48
 
With absolutely NOTHING due at signing (no first payment, plates, nothing) the monthly would be $499 a month.
With $2650 due at signing the monthly would be $415 a month.
 
By my calculations, this is a residual of 58% and money factor of over .0008. Could you let me know what residual and money factor should be used for this car? Thanks so much for your help.

Negotiated them to $1000 over invoice and 0.0008 MF

Not sure if I missed anything. My calculations aren't exact but I think they're pretty close. Tell me if I missed anything (and if I did it's too late anyways )

2004 A4 lease ending: Residual price negotiable? by leftfrank
Mar 09, 2007 (11:20 am)
Reply
My 2004 A4 lease is ending in 6 weeks. I am considering buying it and I'm wondering if there is a chance that Audi Financial will negotiate down the residual price that is in the original lease agreement?
 
Also, does Audi offer extended warrantees and what might they cost (ballpark)?
 
Thanks. Frank

Hi tballs. Audi Financial Services' current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 24 month lease of a 2007 A4 2.0T Sedan with quattro and 15,000 miles per year are .00093 and 64%, respectively. This car's money factor is slightly better than this in Audi's Central and Eastern region, .00082, shaving another couple dollars per month off of your lease payment.

Re: Procedures for returning a leased A4 [nale] by Car_man HOST

Hi nale. You need to place a call to Audi Financial Services, assuming that is the bank that you are leasing your Audi through, a month or two before the scheduled end of your lease. I believe that AFS uses an independent company to inspect the lease-end condition of vehicles. After this inspection, you will receive a Vehicle Inspection Report listing any charges for excess wear and use, if any. At that time you can either make any necessary repairs on your own or just turn your vehicle in and have AFS charge you an excess wear and tear penalty. As long as your car doesn't have any major dents or scratches, the interior isn't torn, and there is a decent amount of tread left on the tires you should not have to pay a penalty. You should be able to get an idea of what AFS considers to be excess wear and tear by visiting the following site: Audi Financial Services Wear and Tear Guidelines. It wouldn't hurt to wash and clean the interior of your car prior to having it inspected, but I personally don't think it's worth spending big bucks on getting it completely detailed.
 
When you have to physically return your vehicle, you should be able to do so at any Audi dealership, not just the one that you originally leased it from. Place a call to a local Audi dealer and make an appointment with them to return your leased vehicle rather than just showing up unannounced.
 
I believe that Audi Financial Services charges a disposition fee of $350 at lease-end to consumers who do not lease another Audi through AFS.
 
Let me know if you have any other questions.
