#41 of 73 Re: I just got my S5 Auto Trans [dsw] by margee53089 Jul 24, 2008 (1:23 pm)
Replying to: dsw (Jul 24, 2008 1:05 pm) I ordered my S5 in January from my regular Audi guy here in Milwaukee, WI. After 3 months of waiting I was told they didn't think I'd get one this year!!! Being highly annoyed, I got a hold of a guy in MN who promised me one by November, so I ordered one with him, too. On a whim I went to test drive the A5 (not even close to the S5. I also test drove the RS4...holy cow!!!!) with a dealer in a Milwaukee suburb which is owned by the other Milwaukee dealer. I was criticizing my first dealer and these new guys then told me I could have a car by October, so I said "hey, I don't care who gets me the car...first come, first buy". They said they'd call me the next day and then I got a call that night from the GM of the original Milwaukee Audi place and miraculously my car was being built and should be here in two weeks. They say that they got an allocation but the timing seemed odd. Maybe they didn't want to lose a good customer and bumped someone else...don't know...don't care. In two weeks I hope I'm breaking in my 2009 S5!!! Wish me luck and good luck to everyone else waiting. The whole situation really is ridiculous. I always figured if you had the money you could buy whatever you wanted, but I guess Audi doesn't follow those rules!

Replying to: dsw (Jul 24, 2008 1:05 pm) Sounds like they may have sold the car to someone else, maybe for a higher profit margin.
#43 of 73 2009 Audi S5 by motoevolution Jul 25, 2008 (5:09 am)
Just put my hands on the 2009 S5. The dealer I was at had just unloaded it off the truck on Wednesday. I would have purchased it but I did not like the red interior. Decisions, descisions.
#44 of 73 Waiting for 2009 Audi Lease Rates (can't pickup my S5) by MikeStern Jul 28, 2008 (2:16 pm)
This is kind of ridiculous. I am currently waiting for my dealer to get 2009 lease and loan rates from Audi Financial Services. They said nobody knows for sure but it could be as late as August 15th before the 2009 rates are published. Until they get the new rates, they can't provide financing for it. I'm just waiting patiently... Anybody else having a similar issue or maybe has more info about this?   2009 S5 4.2 COUPE 2-DR 6-SPD QUATTRO ICE SILVER METALLIC/BLACK CARBON FIBER TRIM $500 BANG & OLUFSEN SOUND SYSTEM $850 AUDI DRIVE SELECT $2950 AUDI DVD NAVIGATION PLUS $2390 TECHNOLOGY PACKAGE $2200 MSRP $62,390     Replies to this message: margee53089 (Jul 28, 2008 2:25 pm) margee53089 (Jul 31, 2008 4:10 am) shivan (Aug 01, 2008 11:50 am) yyyken (Aug 04, 2008 7:44 pm)

Replying to: MikeStern (Jul 28, 2008 2:16 pm) Mine just came in today...wish I knew how to attach the picture. I am picking up on Wednesday. I didn't talk price with the dealer (like it would matter for this car!!) He is supposed to call back this afternoon. I am just waiting to see what they will give me in trade for my 2004 S4...last I heard $19500...they better bring it up a little...it's in great shape with only 41,000 miles on it.

Replying to: MikeStern (Jul 28, 2008 2:16 pm) Got mine last night. They do have the lease rates out here in Milwaukee. Opted out of the lease and bought instead...heck, I might never get rid of it! The car was well worth the seven month wait...holy cow...what a machine. Driving away from the dealer we had people turning, pointing and staring (they were in an A4). Good luck with yours!

Replying to: MikeStern (Jul 28, 2008 2:16 pm) I too am waiting for the 2009 lease program to be released by Audi...its frustrating that an auto manufacturer has cars available but no lease program listed. Replies to this message: yyyken (Aug 04, 2008 7:44 pm)

Replying to: shivan (Aug 01, 2008 11:50 am) The good times of great leases are gone for a while (yrs) . . . you often might as well just take out a long lone from a credit union to mimic the lease. (So you balance after 3 yrs is about what the car is worth). 72 months or some even have 84 month loans which match up well with cars like Audi that hold thier value reasonable well . . .

Replying to: ideautistic (Aug 13, 2008 7:38 am) I ordered mine in January and got it on July 30th. It is fantastic!!!! From what I have been told, it is all based on the number of allocations your region and dealer gets, so your dealer should know. I found out at the end of June that it was in production and they had a delivery date of August 11th so I got lucky.
