Not sure if it was some kind of a special they had going at the time or if the same is true right now. An extra 3k/year will probably add $20/month from what I remember the dealer was offering. Dealer: Keyes Audi on Van Nuys blvd in Van Nuys (went through their internet sales mgr).

Replying to: timincali (Feb 28, 2007 9:55 pm) I wanted the 24 mo lease because I wanted to get an S8 sooner (it wasn't available back then). When the dealer told me that 24 mo lease was cheaper than 34 mo, it only made it so much better  Call Keys, tell them you want the same deal (if that's what you want). PM me for the salesman's phone number if needed (not sure if that's against forum's rules). |

I am in the Hampton Roads area of Virginia, and getting ready to order a 2008 A8L. I am trying to decide between the light silver metallic and the platinum beige pearl; has anyone seen the platinum beige on an 07? I like the northern blue pearl as well, but it looks too dark on the website. I may end up with the silver (with platinum interior), as with the platinum beige I'd probably get one of the two beige leather interiors, and you can't get the leather/wood steering wheel with those (not with honey birch trim). I expect to end up with a near-fully loaded A8L (minus only the interactive cruise control and sports package) with a MSRP around $91K. How much off MSRP / above invoice could I expect on that? Also, does anyone have experience with the Audi extended warranty? With other brands I have gotten the 7 yr / 100K miles / $0 deductible. What could I negotiate for something similar from Audi? Is it a good idea to get the wheel insurance? Wonder why your auto policy wouldn't cover that. Thanks much for any information. This got a little wordy.

Replying to: pmcb48 (Jun 23, 2007 8:05 pm) Yes, I've seen the platimum beige in person, and no, the Website doesn't do it justice, in fact, none of Audi's paint schemes. There is room for negotiations with these cars. A buddy of mine just bought an A8 Sport for 1k above invoice, pretty darn good, in my opinion. Audi's extended warranties are standard fare, just like the other makers. My W12 and S8's both have 8 yr/100k mile warranties. I'm not sure, but I think that Audi revised it's wheel insurance program. When I bought my cars, it was for cars with only 19's and 20's. Now hear that it's for all of Audi cars. Most manufacturers(save for BMW on the brakes) don't cover brakes, tires, or wheels because they're considered a wearable item. Audi replaces the wheels, for any reason, for the duration of the wheel protection period. |
