after going back and forth on my trade in they finally gave me 17500 for my 03 A4 1.8T AWD auto spts/bose/xenon/prem 51k. At first i thought that was way to low, so i took it to car max and they only gave me 16000. so i came back and put a deposit down so they can lock in my trade in. paid sticker, but got free tint. car should be here 7-10 days

OK, I initially thought the payment was high, but after using the Edmunds Lease Calculator, it seems about in line with what you'd expect. If we knew the money factor and the tax rate in your area, that would help a bit.

Hi kirstie_h
 
We need to add 1914.06 as 6% sales tax (PA) + transfer and reg fees at about 130 viz 33945.
 
The lease I think should be calculated on this amount. Still I do not know much about leases to determine whether that was a good or atleast a fair deal or not.
 
I would appreciate any help here.
 
Thanks

I should've asked him about the money factor too. But I forgot to add the acquisition fee about 600 and security deposit of 500 to the amount mentioned in my previous reply.

Even when I put all of that info into the calculator using the "stock" money factor of .0027, I still come up with a number closer to $455, and $470 for the 35/15K lease. However, the money factor is really important to you here, and that's what's probably changing the payment.

I see. I will go over the details with them on thursday. I remember them telling me that the APR used was something like 6.54%.
