#31 of 157 S5 Lease by pddesertguy

I'm looking to lease a 2012 S5 Prestige coupe this month. The car that I am looking for is:
Phantom Black Pearl Effect$,Carbon fiber decorative inlays, 19” 5-segment-spoke-design alloy wheels with 255/35 summer tires, Power rear window sunshade. The MSRP on the Audi web site is 64,850.
 
What is the best deal that I can expect for a 15K/36 mo lease? Or would it be better to buy the car? I had top tier credit and am not a current Audi owner. I'm willing to pay security to buy down the MF to the base rate or anything else that is needed to secure the BEST deal.

The residual for the prestige is 3% less than for the premium plus so I would rather lease a premium plus with the options you want. You need to figure out what the best sale price you can get on the car is then use a lease calculator to figure out the monthly payment. I just worked up a quick number and if you negotiated a price of $1000 over invoice and with 6.25% sales tax you'd pay around $950/month.

Am looking at leasing an S5 Premium Plus with six-speed manual transmission and quattro: Sports rear differential, Audi MMI® navigation plus, Carbon fiber decorative inlays, Rear acoustic parking sensors, Bang & Olufsen® Sound System, 19” 5-segment-spoke-design alloy wheels with 255/35 summer tires, Audi advanced key. Price as built was 61K. I briefly reviewed lease option and the 3 and 4 year leases were most attractive. I would like to know what is reasonable for the least down (e.g. nothing) with the lowest monthly. I am working with the dealership in Concord California. Can you give me an idea of this?
Thank you for the help!!

Don't keep posting and use a lease calculator to figure out what you expect to pay.

Hi sire1066. This car's lease payment will depend upon how large a discount you are able to negotiate. For example, a 36-month, 15k lease of this S5 Coupe with a $1,000 dealer discount would have a zero down, pre-tax monthly payment of around $824. A $2,000 dealer discount would drop this car's payment to around $794. A $3,000 discount would result in a payment of around $765...etc.

Not sure what numbers you're using but first of all the MSRP as equipped is 61,825 assuming non-metallic paint. With $1000 off MSRP it is pre-tax of 875/month.

I assumed that "Price as built was 61K" meant an MSRP of $61,000 and I worked the payments from there.

Your math is still significantly wrong.
