Hello carman! I was wondering what bureau Audi uses or will they pick the highest score or what is the program?? I know Toyota uses Experian but if experian is a 610 or higher then you can use equifax or TU for the best rate... And what are the money factors for the tiers on A5 premium plus & the residual is higher on premium plus? I am looking for a manual transmission as well.. Thanks for you help!!

Was quoted a buy price of 47,833 (MSRP 48,810) for a Premium Plus 2013 A5 with Nav, Upgraded Sound, Smart Key, Exhaust Tips, Wheel Locks, and Logo Mats.
The money factor was .00176 and residual was 55.7% for a 10,000 mile a year for a 42 month lease. Lease payment is 766.15 with zero down after taking into account a 1,000 Audi loyalty rebate. I think this is high. What do you think?
Thanks. This forum is a big help!

That's a good question, missis2k. I'm not sure what agency Audi Financial Services looks at for credit scores.
AFS' October buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36-month lease of a 2013 A5 Coupe Premium Plus with 15,000 miles per year are .00141 and 55% for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier.

Hi haboob. I agree with kenjin. Both this car's selling price and money factor are a little high. AFS' current buy rate for a 42-month lease of this car is only .00161. It's even better for a 36-month lease at .00141.
Shoot for the use of the buy rate money factor and a lower selling price if possible. Have you tried shopping around with a couple of different dealers?

Out of curiosity what should be the residual rate on that car at 36 months and 42 months with 10,000 miles per year?

Hi,
I'm shopping for a lease on a 2013 a5 cabrio premium plus with bang and olufson, navi and advanced key.
MSRP is $49,220. Do you know what the november numbers would be? I have 769 FICO score.
What would the AFS money factor/residual be?
Thanks so much in advance!! I don't know how you get those numbers but they sure are helpful!
Best,
Bob

The numbers for an otherwise identical 42-month lease are .00143 and 53%.
