Car Man, why do you not expect Audi to introduce any support on either the A5 or S5? Are April lease rates available for I guess now 2009 A5 15,000 36,39 and 48 month. Thanks

I looked at them and they are leasing terribly...over 800/month with nothing down.
Personally, I would get a 335 coupe...I drove them both, and the BMW is a better car (doesn't look as good, though)...the engine on the 335 is just amazing.
Also, the G37 is a really nice coupe, and can be had for under 500/month. real bargain.

I'm picking up my Brilliant Red A5 today!!! Leased it for no money down, 15,000 miles- talked them down from $856 per month to $798- best I could do.
I was lucky to get this car. I ordered one from another dealer in January and wad told the other day that it would be in (MAYBE) in June. Tired of waiting, I called a few dealers in New Jersey and one salesman said he was standing in front of a Red, Automatic A5. Flew up to the dealer and I'm getting it today. Can't wait

I've had my new A5 for just over a month and I am thrilled with the car. The ride and handling are exceptional and I'm glad that I chose it over the BMW. I'm sure that you'll be just as happy.

One word for this car- AWESOME!!!!! I almost settled for the Mercedes CLK, but I'm SO glad I didn't. Everywhere I go, people stop me talk about it. Rides great on local streets and on the highway. I'm so happy with it.

Hi shivan. Audi may not introduce lease support on it. It's always difficult to predict what automakers will do with their future lease programs. I have not seen Audi's new May lease program yet, but its April buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2008 A5 with 15,000 miles per year are .00236 and 53%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 39 month lease are .00256 and 50%. The 48 month numbers are .00256 and 42%. To the best of my knowledge, the 2009 A5 is not available yet.

What exactly do you mean when you say "lease support". Are you talking about just increasing the residual value and lowering the money factor?

You've got the right idea, richz. Usually lease support means that a manufacturer's captive finance company offers a lower lease money factor than its standard rate on a vehicle. However, from time to time manufacturers will artificially inflate a vehicle's residual to a higher than expected percentage to have the same effect but defer some of the pain.

I know this is not the S5 lease forum (actually I don't think one exists) but carman can you tell me the MF, Residuals for a 15k, 39 month S5 lease. If AFS has released the May numbers that would be great. One other question, what are the buy rates on MF? and are they different than the rate I would get at an audi dealership, would I have to negotiate them?
