Here's thw information that you're looking for brandmar1. Audi Financial Services' July buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36-month lease of a 2012 Q5 3.2 Premium Plus with 15,000 miles per year are .00094 and 48%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier.
 
The residual value for a lease with only 12,000 miles per year would be 2% higher.

We are looking at the exact same car and options. And, we're moving to Long Island next month. So, I was curious what deal you ended up with? And, what dealer?

Amzing the price increase in just three years. This does not make sense at all. Same car 3 years later the lease is $100 per month more despite the fact my residual value was $10K below market value at the lease end. This tells me that Audi can reduce the lease by $200 instead of increasing it by $100 and still make the same profit! Am I missing anything?

What you are missing is "risk". If the residual value is being assumed too low, the lessee has the option anyway to buyback and sell the car to autotrader or someone, and make the underestimated 10K that you estimate (thereby reducing the net cost of the lease). But Audi does not perhaps want to take the risk of assuming a 10K higher residual value at the start and then left with the risk of a loss at the end.

All companies apply Risk Adversity! With $10k differential they can easily take ZERO risk on half that amount ($5K) and reduce the lease by $100 and make it more attractive and lease out more vehicles. But I really believe that the lease value just like the MSRP is driven not just by cost but by the placement of the product in the market place. As an example Audi does not want to place the Q5 in the same category of the Ford Edge, but with the BMW X3, Lexus RX350, etc.

Hi Marina. Sorry that it took me a while to get back to you. I was away.
 
Audi Financial Services' July buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 42-month lease of a 2012 Q5 2.0 Premium with 12,000 miles per year are .00151 and 43%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier.
 
I am not intimately familiar with what the market is like for the Q5 in your area right now, but I believe that Audi does not send a ton of them to the U.S. and the prices of the ones that do come here are relatively high.

ok, here is what I found out (Car_man - please confirm)
 
Permium and Premium Plus have the same numbers for Aug:
 
36 months - MF=0.00151, residual = 49%
 
42 months - MF=0.00171, residual = 45%
