Hi Freedman,
I just ordered a Blue Q5 with gray interior and 19in wheels .It is in transient from Germany. if it was not for this site and learning _I would not have gotten this deal.
Blue prem. plus with nav and 19 inch wheels:
agreed price is 45400
36 lease
15000 miles
659,- tax and audi care in cluded
I am turning in my A6 Avant with 56000 miles and they are paying off my loan remainder.
thought I did not want a new so soon-what a joke:)
I have never had Audi issues and this is my 4th one. They are sound car if taken care.

Hi, I'm in Texas and am trying to understand the difference between a Premiere Purchase and a lease. If I understand correctly, with a lease I'll pay sales tax monthly, whereas with a Premiere Purchase I would pay upfront (because the title is in my name?) Am I understanding this correctly? Naturally, I'm not able to get a straight answer from the dealer finance guys..... Anything else I should be on the lookout for?
 
Also, I was quoted on a 36 month/15k lease a 47% residual and a 3.27% rate on the Premiere Purchase...but not exactly sure what this means.....

In Texas, you pay full sales tax on the selling price, either way.... buy or lease..
 
So... those that lease pay the full tax, then if they want to purchase the car at lease end, they have to pay tax, again...
 
That's why they offer (push?) the Premier program.. By putting the car in your name from the beginning, if you choose to keep the car at the end of the term, no further tax is due..
 
However, if you are leasing with then intention of turning the car in, then that isn't a concern.

Thanks for the info.
 
So I think I'm going to go with Premiere Purchase as I'm not sure if I'll want to buy back or not...seems like a no-brainer.

Residuals by danielb6752

Test drove Q5 today at the Audi Drive Experience. Was at the dealer yesterday as well, where they told me Audi was motivated to get these out on the street and was offering aggressive leasing options.
 
Then i asked him to run the numbers on a lease assuming i paid the taxes upfront and he was "in the 700s" and i was out the door. what a joke! This was a premier plus with nav.
 
I love this car and would be fine buying it, but i'm afraid of audi reliability if i were to keep it several years, and i also know from experience that they are relatively poor at holding their value.
 
Audi's super-low residuals don't instill much confidence. if all these cars coming off lease are so cheap for owners to buy out or dealers to flip, then what protects the value of my car?

How do the Premier Purchase payments compare to lease payments? $ up front?

I just received the following offer:
 
Audi Q5
Premium plus package
MSRP $41,500
TMV $40,140
zero down
$590 month (including tax)
36,000 miles
 
This seems like a good deal but I may not be asking the right questions. What do you think?

At the 11th hour, I decided to buy. Wife and I decided that we didn't want to go thru this again in 3 years. Another issues is we were changing driving habits and I wasn't sure of mileage.
 
I will say that because the finance manager was pushing the Premiere Purchase on me so much, I felt a little better about buying!!! Maybe it's me, but I just don't trust those guys at all. I've gotten to the point where if they're pushing it as a good deal, I'm convinced I'm going to get screwed.
 
BTW, the dealer I worked with was pretty flexible on pricing. Paid a good % below MSRP. It was the last weekend of the month and they had 4 of the same models on their lot (Silver, Premium Plus.)
 
We LOVE the Q5, it's a blast to drive. Feel like it's much better than the 525i I just turned in.
