#3823 of 4290 End of Lease turn in questions by dilbertic

Sep 22, 2011 (3:14 pm)

I have a few months left on my 2009 Audi A4 Sedan Prem + with a few added extras and I just got the payoff numbers from the local dealer. I am not sure if I am going to lease another Audi or buy out my current one so i am keeping my options open till the Nov time frame and see what lease deals popup " Hopefully a A4 Avant ".
 
My question is if I payoff my car what discounts do I get. Does the 1500 Audi discount apply for the purchase of my leased auto, or does it have to be for a used / new auto. I am also wondering what the apr rates on audi's 4 year loans.
 
Thanks,

Greetings riverspiv. I'm glad that you enjoy this forum so much. Here's the information that you are looking for.
 
Audi Financial Services' September buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2012 A4 Sedan Premium Plus Quattro with 15,000 miles per year are .00151 and 56%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier.
 
The numbers for an otherwise identical 39 month lease are .00171 and 54%.
 
If you were to lease this car with only 12,000 miles per year, its residual values would be 2% higher.
 
The inclusion of Audi Care adds 1% to the residuals.

Hi dilbertic. Unfortunately, Audi's new vehicle incentives are not available to consumers who wish to purchase their leased vehicles at the end of their terms.

#3829 of 4290 2012 A4 Prestige 2.0T manual, quattro, S line, Sports by opro1

Sep 24, 2011 (4:32 pm)

2012 A4 Prestige 2.0T, Manual, Quatro, S line Package, Sports Package, MSRP $45600. Negotiated price $42500 in the Tri-State area. Lease negotiated $674 a month 15k miles a year 39 months $2300 down. $0 first month's payment. I walked out.
BTW the salesguy started off with $750 a month with $4000 down. I told the salesguy 674 with 2300 down was too much for 45k car. His response was that S line pakg on A4 is a rare find.
 
What do u think of the price Car Man? More room for negotiations?

#3830 of 4290 Why does Audi want me to turn my lease in early?? by jms493

Sep 26, 2011 (6:38 am)

I own a 2009 Audi A4 Premium Plus. 36 mo lease 12K a year (currently at 26K). I put no money down just TTL. I have 10 mo left on my lease and I am getting emails, calls and letters telling me they want my car. There is high demand and it is worth X amount. Why would I turn it in now as opposed to waiting till June? What benefits are there? Thanks

Hi, this is an example of why knowing the money factor and residual means nothing. The only thing that matters is the price of the car the way you have specked it then the number of months, number of miles per year, the total down and the monthly cost. The dealer can twist anything to his favor, he can even give you a low price on the car but the money down and the cost per month is really what matters. Lease deals between dealers vary wildly for the same car at the same price, guess why?
 
I have been to BMW, Audi, Lexus, VW and they all do the same thing, they manipulate the down and the monthly in their favor and it's always shockingly high, just as this poster writes.
 
The bottom line, on a 36 month lease, what you pay down added to what you pay per month for 36 months is what you are renting the car for for 3 years. Find that total and you know what it costs you, it's all that matters.
 
Here is a recent example: 2012 car:
msrp $38,600
negotiated price: $37,590
36 months 12,000 miles per year
due down: $2,635 (sales tax, first payment, bank fee)
residual: 54%
MF: 0.00098
Monthly cost: $523
 
So that's $20,940 for renting a car 3 years that's worth $37,590. Which is completely insane and a total rip off. Knowing the MF and residual did nothing to stop the dealer from offering a terrible and terribly high lease deal.
 
People need to wake up to crazy high lease deals and dealers need to show transparency on leases, it should be a law.
