Looking at '13 A8L - 36 month lease. (virgin leasor) I know there is a down payment, monthly factor, and residual, looking at 15k per year. What are some rough numbers on the car if the MSRP is about 96k before taxes? also any advise, was going to search via internet in my area to find the best dealership?

Can you please provide the moneyfactor and residual?

how does one go about negociating the innitial up front cost, and how does that fit into the lease equation? Or what is reasonable on a $95,000 MSRP and a 36m 12k/year lease?

Greetings parrot12. Since you are new to leasing, you definitely should check out the following informative articles on the subject that are available here at Edmunds.com: 10 Steps to Leasing a New Car and Calculate Your Own Lease Payment.
 
In short, the easiest way to get a good deal on a leased vehicle is to shop around for the lowest possible selling price and then have the dealer that you decide to go with calculate your vehicle's monthly payment using its buy rate lease money factor.
 
You can look up this car's MSRP and dealer invoice price over in the New Vehicle Pricing section of Edmunds.com. Let me know what these numbers are and I'll gladly use Audi's current lease program to work up a payment on this car for you.

Here's the information that you are looking for archie2010. According to the latest information that I have seen, if you were to lease a short wheel base 2013 Audi A8 3.0 through Audi Financial Services' right now for 42 months with 15,000 miles per year, its buy rate lease money factor and residual value would be .00092 and 46%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier.

Hey parrot12. Ideally on a lease you should pay as little money upfront as possible. I always advise consumers not to make any sort of capitalized cost reduction on leased vehicles. Consumers who make large down payments on leases risk losing part or all of the money that they put down if their vehicle is totaled in an accident or stolen and never recovered. Even though it means that your monthly payment will be a little higher, it's much safer to go with a zero down lease. At signing, most banks require lessees to pay their vehicle's first month's payment, an acquisition fee...which in Audi Financial Services' case is $695, possibly a security deposit and certain state taxes or fees. Some of these things, like the acquisition fee can even be rolled into the cap cost and not paid at signing.
 
The bottom line is try to lay out as little out of pocket initially as possible when leasing.

I want to see if I can reach for the A8L. Can you tell me what the MF and residual is for a 30 and 36 month lease, 10 miles please? Do you know if they are still including maintenance with it?
 
Thank you!

Hey ajk. Audi Financial Services November buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 30-month lease of a 2013 A8L with 10,000 miles per year are .00040 and 56% for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier.
 
The numbers for an otherwise identical 36-month lease are .00040 and 53%.
 
Yes, Audi is still offering free maintenance on the A8. There's $3,000 to current owners of Audis and competitive luxury models as well. And they're waiving the first month's payment on leases.
