Here's the information that you're looking for pcullen1. Audi Financial Services' May buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36-month lease of a 2012 S4 Sedan Premium Plus with 12,000 miles per year are .00044 and 56%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier.
The numbers for an otherwise identical lease of a Prestige are .00044 and 53%.
If you were to lease with only 10,000 miles per year, this car's residual value would be 1% higher.

From what I understand, the buy rate lease money factor is the starting point for those with top tier credit and anything above that value is dealer profit. On a BMW forum it was even stated that the BMW dealership is not allowed to increase the money factor more than 0.0004 above they buy rate. Is that true also for Audi? Based on my financials and FICO score (763), I should qualify for the top tier.
How should I expect the dealer to respond to my knowledge of these values? In very preliminary discussions with 2 local dealers within the past week, I have been quoted 6% (0.0025 MF) for a 2012 premium plus!! This is without running a credit history, but it's sure a long way away from 0.00044. So my specific question is, practically speaking, how do you walk into a dealership with these values and walk out with a good lease rate? Does the dealer acknowledge the validity of these numbers?
Thanks to all - esp car_man for literally years of posting this invaluable info.
Car_man - do residual values change with lease term? I got an S4 quote yesterday and was quoted .00092 lease rate and 55% residual for 39 months. I can see where 55% makes sense given 36 months is 57%. Regarding the lease rate, do you feel this 2x markup of the base lease rate is fair? This is 2.2% vs base of 1.05%. Thanks in advance!
Yes, diesel41, generally speaking...the longer the term the lower a vehicle's residual value is. Two percentage points is typically the difference between 36 and 39 months for AFS. I personally wouldn't let the dealer mark up my money factor at all on an Audi, but I'm in an area that has a significant level of competition. People who are in areas that only have one or two dealers might now have that luxury,. but it's worth a shot.

I am interested in leasing a 2012 premium plus s4. I understand that the selling price, residual and money factor is what determines the payments. I have 3 questions.
1. If I want to lease an Audi with 25k miles a year. Would the residual be lowered, or would the residual percentage be fixed and I just prepay for miles? I heard from somewhere beyond 15k miles a year, the residual wouldn't change but you just end up prepaying for the additional miles at 10 cents a mile.
2. My friend leased an infiniti coupe at 25k miles a year and she told me the dealership used their own cars as trade-ins to save on taxes for her, the taxes saved was used to compensate for the 25k miles she needs. Is that legit? I never heard of dealerships doing something like that unless you have your own car as a trade in for tax saving. She even showed me the contract so I was surprised.
3. The Premium Plus S4 I am looking at stickers around 58,000. Assuming I was going to lease the car at 25k miles a year for a 36month lease, and the negotiated price is right around 56,000. and my credit score is 690. How much do you think is a reasonable down payment for my lease to be right around $600 per month? What would be a reasonable money factor for my credit score?
Hi tperry1972usa. Audi Financial Services' current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36-month lease of a 2013 S4 Premium Plus with 10,000 miles per year are .00141 and 59%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier.
The money factor for the 2013 S4 Prestige is the same, but the residual value would be 2% lower.
If your credit is in good shape, it looks like the dealer is attempting to mark your vehicle's money factor up to pad your deal.

If you have the opportunitiy could you tell me what the mf and residual % currently are on the Audi S4 2012 Premium Plus for 42 months / 10K ? I am looking at one but the numbers do not seem to add up properly. I see you answered a similar question above #207 - however I am guessing that the numbers would have changed for June. Thanks for your assistance.
nickseman, The one dealer I've been working with recently gave me horrendous example rates on a 36 mo, 12k mi/yr lease for a Premium Plus S4. They really don't add up so I think they're trying to gouge us for looking at the 2013s early. I'll be visiting a different dealer tomorrow.
If the MF is 0.00191, residual 59% for 36k miles, that's not bad. At first visit to this dealer, he stated MF of 0.00262 but when I asked him about it again, he gives me the run around. His quote was in M3 territory which is insane.

What lease rates are there for a 2012 (not 13) Prestige. I'm looking for 36 months and 10k miles (could do 39 or 42 months as well).
The car in question is being driven by the dealer manager and currently has 1600 miles on it. I'm wondering how to factor that into the purchase price. It's a loaded prestige 6MT with ADS, Nappa, sunshades, titanium package, so I think original sticker was around $64k.

You're welcome Throb. The money factor that you mentioned is spot on for a 42-month lease of this car. It's difficult for me to evaluate the cap cost though without knowing what this car's MSRP is. Do you have that figure?

In order for me to personally justify purchasing what is essentially a low mileage used vehicle aka demo over a brand new one I personally would have to receive a significant additional discount. Unfortunately, I have found that dealers never seem to be willing to discount demos enough for my taste.
Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum
Hello Tperry1972usa. Let me begin by saying that the money factor that you were quoted for this car is right in line with AFS' buy rate for it. That's always a good thing.
I don't know what this car's exact dealer invoice price is, but I suspect that the selling price that you were quoted is around $1,600 or so over invoice. That's not terrible, but there is some room to work with there. I suspect that this car is in fairly low supply so you may not have a lot of options, but you could always shop around if you want to. Again, this deal isn't bad...I just wouldn't be surprised if someone was able to beat it.
I see that you are considering making a $3,500 capitalized cost reduction on your lease. This doesn't really reflect upon the quality of the deal that you are getting, but I always advise consumers to put as little money down as possible when leasing. Consumers who make large down payments on leased vehicles risk losing part or all of the money that they put down if their vehicle is totaled in an accident or stolen and never recovered. Even though it means that your monthly payment will be a little higher, it would be much safer to go with a zero down lease.

Thanks for the information Car_man. Truly appreciated. I had one more follow up question. Since my car is scheduled to arrive on the 30th of July (and there is always the chance for delay into August), I was wondering when new monthly rates for AFS take effect. I am afraid that if the August rates are worse I might lose the opportunity to lock in these rates. Thanks again.
You're very welcome kasher_khan. Sorry for the delay in my response. Audi's July lease program is scheduled to run through September 4th, but companies have been known to make unscheduled changes to their programs from time to time.

I saw a recent post reporting a negotiated sales price of $500 over invoice. Considering my locale of downstate New York, is $1,000 over invoice fair?

Hi jayhawkmd. Please see my previous post for the 36-month information. The numbers for a 42 month / 12k lease would be .00141 and 56% (this is probably the best term to go with on this model right now).
If you were to lease with only 10,000 miles per year, this car's residual values would be 1% higher.
Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum
Hi isles1. I personally don't have a problem with $1,000 over invoice on an ordered S4. If you really shopped around you might be able to find a dealer that would be willing to beat that on a unit that they had in stock, but it might be a little more difficult to beat that on an ordered vehicle.
Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum
Apologies if this has been asked before but is a 48 month lease doable - I haven't seen anyone asking about longer than 42 months. 42 months is a little short for me and with a 48 month and 12,500 miles/yr the warranty period would just be covered.
Hi suntint. The reason why the longest leases that you have seen mentioned here are for 42-months is that this is the longest term that Audi's special lease money factors are available for. Theoretically one could lease an Audi for 48-months, but in order to do so you would have to use Audi's standard lease program and the money factor would increase somewhat. A 42-month lease or shorter would be a better deal.
As far as the difference in residual values, there's probably a 3% spread between 42- and 48-months on most Audis.
Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum

Again, I was quoted $1,000 over invoice. I am going to try to get the dealer to throw in the "Supercharged" badges because the "3.0 T" badges bother me Apparently, the 3.0 T badges will be replaced with the Supercharged badges when the factory runs out of the 3.0 T badges.

Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum
Hi Car_Man. Wondering if you can help. I'm trying to buy a 2013 S4 Premium Plus - sticker at $56,570. Dealer is quoting me $54,136 (about $1500 over invoice as best I can guess). He's adding in Audi Care ($800ish) for a 42 month term (10K miles/yr) with $2k at signing. He's saying it's $759/mo. All my calc's are coming in around $650/mo. I believe he's using .00141 for MF and don't know Residual. Am I missing something?
You're coming in a touch low, but how can you even make calculations without knowing the residual?
I just leased an S4 and my numbers were similar so hopefully I can give some context. My cap cost was similar to yours but MSRP was $57900. Residual is 31845. Audi care, too. I put more down, $3300 (more on that later). My monthly is $723. Reverse engineering that, looks like MF is .00141.
Verbal deal was $2800 down which included $1000 "conquest cash". I confirmed the availability of this incentive twice with the dealer before coming in to sign papers. Once I'm in his office "oops!" that's only for MY 2012 S4's. After a standoff we agreed to split the diff and I paid $500 more down. Bummer, but oh well. I f***ing luv this car.
thanks agershon. I'm not worried about a few bucks here/there. I think I used 31800 (ish) for the residual. My point is why I'm SO far off from the dealer's numbers. $100/mo is approximately $3000+ on the price.
Glad to hear you love it - I'm excited to see if I can put this together.
Putting in your numbers, I get $782/mo. Taxes, registration and fees are almost 2k so you're essentially putting no money down. Be sure to include those in your calculations. Your residual (at 55%) is closer to 31100.

I just leased an S4 and my numbers were similar so hopefully I can give some context. My cap cost was similar to yours but MSRP was $57900. Residual is 31845. Audi care, too. I put more down, $3300 (more on that later). My monthly is $723. Reverse engineering that, looks like MF is .00141.
Verbal deal was $2800 down which included $1000 "conquest cash". I confirmed the availability of this incentive twice with the dealer before coming in to sign papers. Once I'm in his office "oops!" that's only for MY 2012 S4's. After a standoff we agreed to split the diff and I paid $500 more down. Bummer, but oh well. I f***ing luv this car.
Good luck!
Glad to hear you love it - I'm excited to see if I can put this together.
Hope to hear from you car_man!
thanks

This calculator is very accurate for me. When I enter numbers right from my lease contract I get my exact pymt of $723.
OK I'll shut up now, I know you're waiting to hear from car_man
