#12 of 51 One point of information on the Bose system by floridacarwiz May 24, 2007 (9:24 pm)
All prospective purchasers: Please note that the $1,000 Bose system is not a surround sound system on the TT. I tried it out on the showroom floor and one writer said it needed a little more bass, which I do agree with, so I plan on doing a little upgrading of the system with a sub-woofer and possibly a couple of nice Polk Audio rounds in the kick panels.   The Bose radio does come with the Audiopilot, which monitors ambient noise in the cockpit and compensates with more volume when there is more noise intruding in the cockpit.   Also, the system is rated at 255 watts and I believe it has 11 speakers.

Replying to: bmwt23 (May 28, 2007 6:32 am) BMWT23, I may be the wrong guy to ask this question to. Since I have an investment fund that generates a good return, I never take out principal from it, so I definitely always lease. I also try to put down the least money for inceptions, and sometimes roll that into the leasing number.   Also, the $45,000 sticker price would make me shudder a bit if I had to come up with it to own the car. I would suggest you ask your accountant the question and see what he says.   This time I am leasing for 24 months, being that the automotive industry is changing their models to more modern offerings with sleeker body styles and high-performance and technology at the forefront.   Whatever your final choice, good luck and many happy and safe miles ahead.

Replying to: lbh2315 (Mar 21, 2007 8:49 am) it sounds like you got a pretty decent deal. i have a 2003 audi tt coupe with a lease expiring august 2007. im interested in leasing a 2008 tt 3.2...since it is more or less custom made, did you feel like you had much leverage to negotiate? i am not sure how to approach bargaining in this scenario as i am also pretty specific as to what i want. any advice would be much appreciated!

Replying to: 417dragonfly (Jun 05, 2007 7:16 am) Make sure the dealership takes at least 1800-2000 off of the MSRP, and bases the lease on the number you come up with. I am paying a fairly high monthly number...$660 + 4000 down... but I am waiting for a used R8 down the road a bit. I am going against my usual strategy in leasing and putting more down than I normally do. But lately I have been getting bored with my cars sooner than normal.... maybe it's my age... 57.   It is also a fact that Audi is hitting record numbers of sales with their cars now, so maybe that will be impetus for the salesmen and dealerships to make some good deals, so as to keep them on a roll. Good luck, and keep me possted.

Replying to: howardchen (Jun 12, 2007 5:00 pm) Hmmm.... I spoke to a dealership. For this deal, each $1,000 of options would add $30 to the month payment and $$$ for 15 miles, and tax & fees would push it to over $600.
#19 of 51 good 3.2 TT offer? by kenmore Aug 10, 2007 (3:22 am)
audi 3.2 TT Quattro alcantara bixenon ipod bluetooth 18" 10 spoke rims 6MT   MSRP: 44575 Offered Sale Price: 43000   Lease: No money down. 2205 for fees 730.88/mo x 36 months   this comes to total of 26,311 depreciation = 21,396   difference= 26,311-21,396 = 4915 subtract tax from the difference: 4915-1315= 3599   So the dealer makes 3599 off this lease. they tell me invoice is 41K so if i bought the car, they would profit 2000. by leasing they make 1599 more over the 3 years.   is this a good deal?

Replying to: kenmore (Aug 10, 2007 3:22 am) The extra $3599 in your calculation is finance charges.. The equivalent of interest on a car loan. That is revenue to the finance company to compensate them for providing the money to buy the car from the dealership.   The dealership might get a small commission for selling the lease for the leasing company, but that is no different than if they provided bank financing.   That $3599 isn't profit for the dealership.   regards, kyfdx
