Replying to: rjlaero (May 09, 2008 11:39 am) I assume the residual drops to 52% for 36m/45K? Not a bad payment for 35 months... Any idea of the selling price imputed in the deal? regards, kyfdx |

Replying to: kyfdx (May 09, 2008 11:19 am) Do you have the NEW Money Factors and other particulars that are going into the new Lease Specials offered by Audi. I need to know how it breaks down so that I can apply the same factors to a car with additional options. I'm pretty sure that the Residual with 10,000 miles stayed the same at 55% or (56% if taking the Audicare.) looks like the MF may be the same at .00027. But there must be some additional incentive as they are rolling the Bank fee into the Lease payment. Seems like there are a few others on here that need the same info.

Hello Carman, Kyfdx, and All, This is a great site, all the helpful information is much appreciated! My question- when Audi has "special lease offers" like the below that are sponsored by the factory. Are the specials created by the factory's reduced money factors, increased residuals, and incentive moneys only or is the dealer's profit margin also reduced? I'm trying to figure out if the dealer still has the margin between msrp and invoice to deal with. For example can the reduce the price of the below to $500 below invoice on the below deal to make a good deal even better? "2008 A4 2.0 T quattro Special Edition $419 per month 36-month lease* Down payment $0 Security deposit $0 Acquisition fee - capitalized within lease contract ($575) First month payment $0 Amount due at lease inception $0 Excludes taxes, title and dealer fees. See dealer for details. *36-mo. closed-end lease offered to qualified customers by Audi Financial Services through participating dealers. Must take delivery by 7/2/2008. Rate based on $34,100 MSRP of 2008 Audi A4 2.0 T with quattro, Tiptronic transmission, Special Edition Package and destination charge. Purchase option at lease end for $18,755." Back when I leased my Hummer H3 the dealer was able to make additional discounts but my Audi dealer is telling me that these deals are already bottom dollar.. Thanks for the help, Rich

Oops one more question- we have a 2006 A4 Quattro S Line that has completed its lease term- Will Audi waive the lease termination fee if you lease another vehicle or do they just roll the fees into your new lease? Thanks all, Rich

Replying to: harrier1 (May 13, 2008 9:59 pm) No more 08 models are being made. There will be a shortage of these lower priced 35k and under A4's special edition cars. The new 09's won't be out until the fall and I can imagine a lot of dealers will run out of these lease ad cars. If you're trying to get greedy and worry about free stuff and haggle over 10/15 bucks a month, then to each their own. I can see how your dealer will let you walk. VW was advertising a -0- down 359/mo lease special on a 27/28k Passat a while back. The A4 is 34k Quattro, so it's hard to complain about the deal Audi is offering. No matter how good a deal is, people are never happy and always want something more. There's a big difference in haggling with a Hummer dealer for a gas guzzling SUV that people aren't buying and fuel efficent cars that are already good deals.

Hi guys! I'm new to leasing and am trying to lease either a 2008 Acura TL or a 2008 Audi A4. I called the local Audi here in Fresno (CA) and they gave me the following monthly payments. 405 + tax with 2000 down. (15000 miles 36 months) 444 + tax with 0 down. (15000 Miles 36 months) I asked them for the residual value, MF etc.. but they weren't willing to tell me for some reason. All they said was that those things are the same as the ones for the Lease Special offer for the Audi A4 2.0 T ( the 399$ offer on audis website). i did however get the MSRP. 32385. what do you guys think ? is this a good deal or can it be better. Thanks in advance. |

rjlaero, Really I wasn't trying to compare manufacturer or models as Audi builds a whole different class of car than Hummer's SUV's (only similarity is gas mileage- H3 gets 16mpg in city, my Quattro gets 18). This is a really good lease program however I'm curious as to how these factory backed deals affect the spread between invoice and msrp. I'm not worried about saving every last penny but if there is$500 or $1,000 savings possible I'll take it. theRoOkie, The factory backed program for an A4 SE with msrp of $31825 is a true zero down and $399 month plus tax but only includes 10k miles a year. I think you'll need the residuals and money factors to calculate the rate for 15k miles a year- yep those numbers they don't want to share. A lot of people on here advise against dealing with someone who won't share the residuals and mf's. We had a TL before leasing the A4 Quattro and your comparing apples and oranges. The TL has a lot of power, drives nice, and is comfortable, while the Audi is sportier, Audi interior finishing is tops, and it has that awesome Audi handling/feel to it. This is not meant as a knock to the TL in any way we really liked ours, I'm just pointing out they are very different cars. Rich |
