#66 of 169 Re: Just this Audi dealer? [bethbarnes] by kerryjth Aug 01, 2009 (3:54 am)
Replying to: bethbarnes (Jul 24, 2009 6:57 pm) Audi culture is one of aloofness and Audi 1st Customer 2nd... They do not get Customer Service... My only caution in leaving BMW for Audi is my q7 spent a lot of time in the shop and it was a nightmare, My service guy tells me it was a fluke and audi has given me incentives(which may actually work) to stay BUT the question is DO I REALLY WANT THE HASSLE - life is too short ...   BTW I test drove a Nissan Murano and was quite impressed - nice ride, handling and even a GREAT TOUCH SCREEN NAV system that blows AWAY the Audi Q5 version ... Fully loaded I had dealer down to $35K...   GOOD LUCK !

Replying to: audirs4 (Jul 24, 2009 6:11 am) You overlook 1 fact ...   RECESSION !! The SUVs over $40K market has all but dried up... High PRICE & GAS MILEAGE are killing it   There will be plenty of 2010 Q5 inventory pretty much across the country... and just like all of us in business some profit is better than NO profit ...   and yes at $400 under invoice the dealer is still making a profit not as nice as the FAT one they are used to but still good !   Also just mention you want to test drive a Murano... Nissan SALES are way up despite recession due to great price value and GAs mileage..

Replying to: kerryjth (Aug 01, 2009 3:59 am) Unless there is loyalty money or dealer cash, you're not going to get under invoice on a new Q5.   Audi is one of the few brands that has no dealer holdback on cars. On the 09's, I think there was 1000 on the table for loyalty on conquest cash. I think that's gone, though.   There's only about 2300 of dealer mark-up in a 43k price range Q5 premium plus.   But it's not a big deal if you can buy a 43k MSRP Q5 for 41k. People are buying the Q5 because they want one. It's getting stellar reviews and press, not because it's the cheapest car out there. Replies to this message: kerryjth (Aug 06, 2009 1:22 pm)
#69 of 169 Audi customer service by telebump Aug 06, 2009 (1:15 pm)
I am looking at getting a new car in the next couple months and really like the Q5, however I have been frankly really turned off by the responsiveness of the Audi sales people. I have already asked to have one sales rep switched out for another based on his rudeness, and the "manager" I am now working with is completely unresponsive. It is to the point where I have said that I want to preorder a 2010 Q5 and I can't even get the rep to call me back to give him my cc for a deposit! Three calls and two emails, no response. My second choice is an RX350, and they have an outstanding reputation and the rep has been very polite and thorough. Anyone else have a similar experience? I have a hard time spending 50K on a company I have no experience with whose people are not competent. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

#71 of 169 Note 2010 Prestige interior available in cinnamon by bmathews1 Aug 07, 2009 (4:39 am)
I just wanted to mention that I picked up a 2010 Q5 Prestige with S-line package yesterday ($54,700 OTD with 7% sales tax) and contrary to the online tool Audi has, it DOES come in cinnamon interior which I might add is a very attractive interior.   I got $1300 off MSRP without even asking (seriously, I called them up after I test drove the car on Thursday and said I would be coming in later in the day with a check and asked for them to send me the price) I didn't ask because this was the only 2010 prestige in my entire city (4 Audi dealers).   So that is just a little FYI to all of you building a Q5 or buying one.

Replying to: telebump (Aug 06, 2009 1:15 pm) Yeah, Audi dealers are known for their arrogant attitude. Go with RX350 trust me you’ll thank me later.

Replying to: kerryjth (Aug 01, 2009 3:59 am) I see 2010's building each day. Tried to buy a 2009 Premium plus locally but they had added $1,000 with audi care, nitrogen for life...so I did not even try. Regardless, I found a 6 week old Q5 in silver/black on autotrader from a lady with buyers remorse. REgardless, I bought the car for $37,250 with less than 2,000 miles. She was happy, I am happy. The car has no issues at all. The MSRP was $42,800 so I am pretty content expecially with the 2010's coming out. The 2009's should be near invoice--why buy a 2009 with slight discount when 2010 are on the ground.
#74 of 169 Audi Supplier Program by btmoore Aug 09, 2009 (4:43 pm)
I just purchased a 10 Q5 Prestige for 6% off of MSRP through the Audi Supplier program, audisupplier.com, check with your company to see if they are part of the supplier program. MSRP is $49,675, According Edmunds Invoice is $46,256, and with the supplier program the price is 46,744. Now after a bit of negotiating I got them to add the AudiCare program for no charge which costs $740. So depending on how you look at it, out the door near or below invoice depending on how you want to look at the AudiCare I got cooked in the deal, which is better than the TMV price on a 10 (which is currently showing MSRP) and on par with the TMV price for a 09. Now I also had a clunker that I cashed for an addtional $3500 off so that made it real nice since the value for my clunker was $750.   BTW I am located in the SF Bay area.

Replying to: btmoore (Aug 09, 2009 4:43 pm) Sounds like the dealers see '10 inventory building .... Did you get the AUDI Customer loyalty $1000 discount too ? Replies to this message: btmoore (Aug 10, 2009 2:29 pm)
