Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Audi A5 Lease Questions

You are in the Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum. Your Hosts are car_man & kyfdx
I just put in an order for the 2009 a5. Don't have any pricing information but it seemed like when I was looking at the 2008 a5 when it first came out, the leases were pretty bad and didn't get much better. I expect the same for the 2009 a5. My dealer made seem like audi has no incentive to give great deals in A5 because the demand will be there but the supply will be limited in the US compared to the A4. I'm not expecting great lease options for the 2009 A5 so I intend on trying to finance it. I guess this is a lease versus buy question but I'd like to hear the forum's opinion on leasing versus buying this car.

I test drove the A5, and have to admit that it is way better than 335xi coupe. The quote I got was outrageous; 50K car, $5K down 15Kmiles/36Mo $1075/mo. Is this a joke? I got a quote from BMW for a 63K 535xi for the same terms, only $2K down $850/mo Please let me know if I can get better deals in NY/NJ area on the A5

A5/S5's should hold their value really well with such a limited amount of cars out there. You can lease a top of the line 58-60k S5 for 1000/1100.mo w/ 5 grand down. A5 should be 700's.

Replying to: richz (Jun 17, 2008 5:31 pm) It can also be the end of the year as well. 09's wil be here in a matter of weeks on some dealers lots, so the residuals are getting bad. But may guess is the money rate factor has been bumped by the dealer. You can easily manipulate 100/150 month on a 50k car with adding multiple points to the money rate factor.
