Replying to: robger99 (Oct 09, 2008 7:48 am) Please read some of the recent posts on leasing. You can't get a good deal when you negotiate in terms of monthly payment, and there is no way to compare yours to other deals that way. What is the cap cost, lease rate, and term of the lease?
#2180 of 3146 October or wait till November by dmargo2 Oct 10, 2008 (9:52 am)
The A4 I ordered will hopefully be coming in soon..its a 2009 2.0 A4 Prestige with Navigation. Any ideas what the lease programs would be (30 vs. 36K) at 18000/year and if folks think waiting until November will be a good idea to decrease monthly payment? Thanks in advance as well. Also, if anyone has an A4 Prestige...are you still thrilled with it? thanks Dave

Folks I am getting the following deal A4 - 2009 with premium package - 10k miles a year, MSRP $35080 Down Payment $1000 + security Monthly $470 for 36 months.   Does that sound like a good deal? I am thinking about putting an counter offer for $450 a month.   Thanks in advance Replies to this message: robger99 (Oct 14, 2008 1:44 pm)

alwaysa rookie,   As you will see if you review the posts on this thread and others dealing with leases, you really should not negotiate based on monthly price -- you are doing yourself a disservice. Start by negotiating the price of the car as if you were going to buy it. (This will be called the capitalized cost on your lease paperwork). Then find out from the host of this board (i) the residual value for the model you want with the options/packages you want for the time period and mileage you want (the residual rate will fluctuate based on these factors, but is a "hard" number that generally is not negotiable); and (ii) the money factor (i.e., interest rate) as you are essentially financing the depreciation of the vehicle (there generally isn't room for negotiation on this point, either, so long as the dealer isn't marking up the base rate that Car_Man will give you).   If you negotiate based on monthly price, you will almost certainly be talked into putting money down. If so, you're really not getting a better deal, you're just pre-paying some of your monthly lease costs (although you will not be financing those amounts, so you will save on interest for those amounts). Conventional wisdom is that you shouldn't make any capital cost reductions (i.e., down payments) on leased vehicles, as you don't have any equity in the vehicle and if it's totaled as you drive off the lot you will lose the money.

Replying to: alwaysarookie (Oct 14, 2008 1:13 pm) A few questions in order to compare to what im shopping. How much is security deposit or TOTAL out of pocket. Does payment include sales tax and does car have any options-I assume so with sticker price being over 35k. I usually shop for lease by monthly payment but I do a lot of reasearch and put very little cap cost reduction and I think i usually come out with a fair to good deal. I kind of have a sense on what a good lease payment is going to be and what isnt depending on the car. This car is brand new and Ive heard Audi sales are not down as much as a lot of manufacturers so the deal will not be as aggressive. Let me know as Im shopping this car as well. Also the g35 and cts.

Replying to: cdepaola (Oct 15, 2008 6:14 pm) Hi: Best deal I have heard of yet. Can you tell me where? Thanks, Steve

Replying to: cdepaola (Oct 15, 2008 6:14 pm) HI   Congrats. Sounds like a good deal off MSRP. What was the interest rate? What city/dealer did you receive this pricing? Enjoy the car. It really handles well. I am considering the A4 as you and the AWD TL.    RXKE
