are the RV and MF the same for the cabrio as they are for the coupe?

I think that they're different, kechal12. Through April 2nd Audi Financial Services' current buy rate lease money factor for a 36-month lease of a 2013 A5 Convertible Premium Plus FWD with 12,000 miles per year are .00060 and 52% for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier.
  
The numbers for an otherwise identical lease of a '13 A5 Convertible Prestige are .00060 and 49%.

#692 of 719 A5 Cabriolet lease rate by ktdray

Hi Leaseman,
I was told from dealer the published Audi rate for the A5 Cabriolet is .00070 for 36 months. Do you think there's room to get them to go lower?
 
thanks!!!!

Hi folks: in the market for an S5 Prestige. First offer had MSRP $62,870 minus $1500 discount. Add to that a service fee of $400, sales tax $4,324, and $42 misc fees. Assuming a $2500 down payment, for a 36 month lease with 15,000 miles/year, we are getting a monthly payment of $1,042. We are leasing newbies and would like to know if this is in the ballpark?

Hi ktdray. The money factor that you were told is correct for the quattro version of this car. It's schedule to run through April 1st. It's difficult to say what the program for the A5 Cab will be like after that, but I don't anticipate it improving significantly. Again, time will tell.

#695 of 719 a5 premium plus lease by 1st_a5_buyer

Mar 04, 2013 (9:33 pm)

Hi car_man,
 
I want to lease audi a5 and got a quote of $590 over 42 month lease with 3k down on a5 premium plus MSRP 42,600. No other options aside from premium plus package. No Navi.
 
I looked up ML and residual value on:
 
http://www.ridewithg.com/index.php/2013/02/2013-audi-lease-rates-february-2013/
 
So I did my lease calculation based on,
 
36 Month – Residual 53% of MSRP – .00104 Base Rate
 
got approx $514 monthly over 42 months. My question is why there is the quote that I got from dealer is so much higher than my calculation. Is $590 reasonable?
 
My calculation:
 
42600 x 53% = 22,578
(42600 - 3000) - 22,578 = 17,022 (3k down)
17,022 / 42 = 405.28
 
(42600 + 22,578) x 0.00104 = 67.78
 
405.28 + 67 = 473 monthly without tax
473 + 8.75 tax (41.38) = 514.38
 
While my calculation does not include other fee (acquisition fee etc) in a lease but I am also using MSRP pricing instead of negotiated pricing. Am I wrong on the calculation or the quote is just too high?
 
Thanks for you help!

#696 of 719 A5 lease ending by abacusfinch

Mar 13, 2013 (11:46 am)

My 2010 A5 lease ends in a few months and my payoff amount is almost $5k lower than the market value of the car. A pretty good problem to have except that I don't want to turn it in for a new Audi or buy it out. But I don't want to just lose the positive equity either. If I try to trade it in to a non-Audi dealer, Audi will give them a quote that is fair market value, not my residual. And I don't have enough cash on hand to buy the car without some financing, so re-selling it is still tricky because the title would have a lien on it. Is there any way for me to keep the positive equity or am I just out of options? Thanks very much and if this is better posted in another forum, my apologies. Please direct me there.

Hi 1st_a5_buyer. The money factor and residual value that you found are correct, but you can't apply them to a 42 month lease....only a 36 month lease. The 42 month numbers for this car are .00124 and 51%. Using these numbers a lease of this car at full MSRP, $42,600, would result in a monthly payment of around $577.
