Hi, I'm interested in getting a new A4 SE quattro; from what i hear they can be had for $400 with all taxes and fees included for a 36/15000 mile lease including audicare. I want to confirm this is true and also is it possible to get the same price for a 24 month/15000 mile lease? Anyone know if the MF is the same for the 24 month/15? I went to a few dealerships already for the IS250 AWD, 328xi and G35x. All want $500 for the same lease 36/15000/$0 sign and drive. Thats why the audi seems like a better deal for $400 or less. I'm located in NJ/NY area. I haven't tried the audi dealers but i hate going to dealerships, now i'll just negotiate via email only. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Replying to: luvaudi19 (Apr 23, 2008 9:24 pm) Anyone have any other great deals to mention? ------ Replying to: audieddy (Feb 17, 2008 1:58 pm) Signed the papers on my new Audi lease today. I am so happy, its my first lease but I feel like I got a killer deal. Made sense becuase I seem to change cars every 2-3 years and now use public tranportation for most of my work commute Car: 2008 2.0T Brilliant black Quattro with black interior (so much nicer than gray or beige interior IMHO) heated seats, premium, dark birch wood (prefer silver but wood actually looked nice) and SPORT suspension (only two black cars in NE with sport according to Dealer). Sport brings the wheels down an inch but looks soo much better than than stock ride height. Anyway onto the lease deal... MSRP: 33725 Lease term: 36 month Mileage allowance: 45k (15k per year) Rate: .00025 (=.06%) Residual:55% (54% + 1% fadded for Audicare) Fees: $0 drive offfAll fees were rolled into lease including registration ($120), doc fees ($260 ouch!), first month lease fee ($400), acq fee ($575), sticker ($29) and Audi Care ($590) plus a few others for reigsering but I forget. Cap cost with all fees rolled in: $32,470 Monthly lease: $388 + $19 (5% MA tax)= $407 a month Funny thing is I added Audi Care at last minute after talking to Service group. They said the second service for the A4 costs about $400 alone and all the services added up over 45k would cost at least $1100. AduiCare was a no brainer . Although it costs $590 up front, you get back some becuase it adds 1% to your residual (in my case $337) so it only really cost you $7 X36 or $252. As I was looking over the final paper work I found two errors. First the finance guy forgot to roll in the first month as agreed upoon. So he redid paper work. Then he gave me the paper and it said $407 per month. We kept looking over the numbers and I finally realized his $407 INCLUDED tax (so he was actually $388 + $19 tax). My wife is going to have a hard time beleiveing that we are better off now with a new car than 7 year old BMW with 105k. Sold that for 10k and used the money to pay off my loan on my 05 Jeep (which was $375 per month and had about 3 years left) . SO my total payments for autos only rose $30 per month and I have no maintenance cost or repairs for the next 3 years on the Audi (well maybe brakes and possibly tires depending on how I drive). Over the next 45k the BMW was due for a clutch ($1000 ), brakes (all 4 for $600), tires ($650), and at least 5 oil changes ($500), plus nothing was under warranty any longer.

Replying to: prince2100 (Apr 24, 2008 6:59 pm) This seems SUPER high to me. I want the quattro model and I think I could do much better on the payment. This is NE Ohio area. Thanks.

First time leasing offer from dealership: Audi A4 2.0 special addition quattro with convenience package(+$2,100) msrp: 36600 price: 34960 residual: 53% MF .00110 36mo/15K Trade in $2000 (which I am not settling for) total due at signing- 5,500 at signing (taxes, 1st payment, plates, doc fee, 1350 cash, acquisition fee) monthly payment $448 this is where they started which seems high- considering that $5,500 down!

Replying to: kaudi4 (Apr 28, 2008 11:49 am) The lease is for 36month/15000 miles a year. The rate offered to me is 487 (which includes Audi maintenence and PA taxes of 6%. The residual % is 51. I see the other guys here paying between $400 - $410 a month for similar specs. Any comments.

Replying to: gtylers (Apr 27, 2008 7:11 pm) I emailed some dealers here in NJ/NY area and with everything included (ask for sign and drive) you should be getting for a 2008 SE quattro $415 or less/month with 3yrs/15000 miles with Audicare (full maintenance). I'm talking about all taxes, and any other fees, $0 out of pocket at signing. Audi is being agressive b/c the re-designed 2009 is coming and the 2008 is an old model. One poster listed in Feb or March $407 he paid for sign and drive SE quattro. Deals should be better than this. I'm looking for $400 or less. If anyone finds it let me know the dealer. |
