The S8 is an awesome car, I agree. I doubt that anywhere in the "world" would you get a discount on such a lucrative vehicle. The Audi S/RS Permformance line under Audi in-house tuner Quattro GmbH is flawless in its execution. And this is only the beginning as upcoming are the R8, the RS6 (cannot anyone say 580 bhp), the RS-TT, RS5, not to mention the current line of S4, S6, and S8. So many choices.

Anyone (in CA) do a lease for a 2007 A8 Sport? Most of the posts seem to be about the A8L and I want to get some info before I visit a dealer.

I don't think a sport package does anything to the residual on an A8. The S line cars do have a slightly lower residual in the A4's, but there is no S line A8.

A8 Lease Question ... by timincali

I started my quest for a new car this week and had no intentions of buying an A8. Well needless to say, one look and I was hooked. The offer I have on the table is the following:
  
A8 Short w/ premium, 19”, massage, Sirius
MSRP - $77970
Invoice - $72574 (according to KBB)
Offer - $73608
Residual – 44% (45% if I have them throw in the $599 maintenance program)
Money Factor – 0.00145
Payment with 7.75% tax - $1322.79
  
I’m in So Cal and wanted to know if the Residual and MF sound right for my region thru Audi Financial. A couple of posts back you stated that they were 46% and 0.0013. I just want to be sure that they are not marking these up. Also, do you think that there is room for further negotiation?
  
Thanks,
Tim-in-Cali

Tim,
 
Look at my numbers (I'm also in SoCal), I don't think $1322/m is fair. How many months and miles/year?
 
24m lease
12k/year
A8L Premium + Sports package.
  
MSRP $81,650
Got it down to $79,200
  
First/last down, $1260/month including CA tax (8.25%).

That's because the L leases out a little better than the SWB

"but there is no S line A8" - what do you mean, rjlaero?

technar,
 
The A8 doesn't have the S line treatments with the more agressive front end, steering wheel stitching, different wood or metal trim, and S line badges like the A3, A4, A6, & Q7.
 
The A8 has a sport pacakge, but it's only upgraded wheels & sport suspension.

Got it. Misunderstood the original post.
 
On a different note...
After about a year I'm ready for something different. Just not enough power. Maybe an S8 or a 911. Any other A8 owner wants to share their opinion?
