Hey Bo. Toyota is not providing any lease support on the new 2008 Highlander, but I would still be surprised if one was able to get a Q7 for less than a Highlander. If you can, going with the Audi is a no brainer. Audi Financial Services' current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2007 Q7 3.6 Premium with 15,000 miles per year are .00333 and 46%, respectively. As you can see, Audi is no longer providing lease support on '07 models. The good news is that this means that you can use the $4,000 dealer cash that Audi is currently providing on the '07 Q7 to negotiate a low capitalized cost. As far as the 2008 model's lease program goes, AFS' current 36 month, 15k buy rate lease money factor for the '08 Q7 3.6 Premium are .00075 and 50%, respectively.

Here's the latest lease program for the truck that you're interested in, chile96. Audi Financial Services' current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2007 Q7 3.6 non-Premium with 12,000 miles per year are .00333 and 49%, respectively. As you can see, Audi is no longer providing lease support on 2007 models. That's the bad news. The good news is that this means you can use the $4,000 dealer cash that Audi is providing on leftover Q7s to negotiate a low capitalized cost for your lease.

Hi royavell. Audi's September lease program is a lot different than its August program. Hopefully you finalized this deal last month because Audi is no longer providing lease support on 2007 models.

Hi dbrouse. A selling price that's right at dealer invoice and the use of Audi Financial Services' buy rate special money factor to calculate your monthly payment make for an excellent deal on the Q7.

Hello Jose. Here is the latest lease program for the truck that you ordered. Audi Financial Services' current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2008 Audi Q7 3.6 Premium with 15,000 miles per year are .00075 and 50%, respectively. If you were to lease with only 12,000 miles per year, this vehicle's residual value would be 2% higher and your monthly payment would be lower. Still, make sure to lease with 15,000 miles per year if you think that you are going to drive that much. Doing so will be less expensive than leasing with 12,000 miles per year and paying a large excess mileage penalty at lease-end.
I'm not sure exactly how much Audi Care would cost for this truck, but it is usually worth it to get it on Audi Financial Services leases. AFS will boost the residual values of vehicles that are leased with Audi Care by 1%, which helps to offset the cost.
I am not personally all that familiar with what the market is like for the 2008 Q7 in Florida right now. If I was personally in the market for one, I would shoot for a selling price of $500 to $1,000 over dealer invoice and see what happens. You may be able to get an idea of how much you will have to pay by visiting the following discussion: "Audi Q7 Prices Paid and Buying Experience".
AFS will probably waive its security deposit requirement for free for returning lessees, but I doubt that it will waive its $575 acquisition fee.

Hi midnightblue. Most banks will allow consumers who order vehicles to lock in the lease terms that are available at the time that they place their order. If you are able to do this, then when your Q7 arrives you can choose to use either the lease program that you have locked in, or the one that is available at the time of delivery, whichever is better. Audi Financial Services, current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2008 Q7 4.2 Premium with 10,000 miles per year are .00140 and 52%, respectively assuming that you pay a security deposit and acquisition fee.
I am not intimately familiar with what the market is like for the 2008 Q7 in your area, but if I was shopping for one right now I personally would shoot for $500 to $1,000 over dealer invoice. You may be able to get an idea of how much you should pay by visiting the following discussion and seeing how much other community members have paid lately: "Audi Q7 Prices Paid and Buying Experience".
