Hi all! I'm looking to lease a 2014 S4 Premium Plus. MSRP $57,740. I'm considering 42 month term and either 7,500 or 10,000 miles (I don't drive a lot) and looking for term/miles combo with lowest lease payment. Few questions:

(1) What are MF and Residuals I should expect?

.00052 MF and 51% for 42mo, 10K/yr

7.5K/yr adds 1% to the residual. But, going with 10K/yr nets you 8750 extra miles for only $577 over the life of the lease.. If any doubt at all, go with 10K/yr.

(2) What is reasonable negotiated discount (%) off MSRP?

6% off MSRP minus any incentives is usually good for a new Audi.

(3) What are fees (acquisition, disposal, etc.) that I need to factor in?

$695 acquisition fee. Any disposition fee wouldn't be due until lease end. Title/registration and tax, of course... plus, watch out for dealer doc fees. They can be onerous in unregulated locales.

Audi pays for your first lease payment with this model. They also have $1000 owner loyalty or a $1000 conquest program if you currently own/lease a 2001 or new BMW, Mercedes, Lexus, Infiniti or Acura.

(4) Is there a better term/miles combo that would get lower monthly payment?
Thanks!

42 months is probably the lowest payment.

I have the deal to $0 down and $680/month. First month payment paid by Audi. 2014 S4 premium plus. 7,500/42 month. $74,740 msrp. Do you think this is a good deal? I don't have the details of MF & residual but I know it's below invoice and ~$2800 in taxes, tags, registration are included into the deal so no more incremental fees, costs, etc on top. (Also it's a swap from another dealer so they're paying to pick up car from a couple states away).

Holy cow! An S4 is $75K? Did you miss any options?

What state? Also, can you live with 7500 mi/yr.? It's only $750 for an extra 8750 miles... (10K/yr)

Lol - I completely transposed the #'s - was supposed to say $57,740! State is Virginia. I can live on 7500 mi/yr because I travel all week and only use the car on weekends - and even then lightly.

Any thoughts on whether the above is a good deal?

I have a quote for 2014 audi s4 premium plus 36/12 MRSP 55,380, negotiated price 52580, 2500 down payment, 1500 fees, 55% residual. Audi care + tire and rim added into monthly cost.
monthly payment 686 + tax. good deal?

I don't know if this is too open ended of a question, but I went to a dealer to look at a lease for 2015 S4 Premium Plus MSRP was $58,000 and they gave 5% off to $55,000

What are good terms for a 10k/36 month lease?

They tried to tell me I needed to put 5-7k down in order to get payments of 550/month which is what I was looking for. I felt like that was a lot of money, any insight into what a good lease terms would be on that model? I'd appreciate any insight, I very uneducated on the topic and would love the help!

$4K upfront and over $700/mo. sounds like a lot for a $55K car.

.00116 MF and 59% residual. $680/mo.+tax.

Due at signing would be 1st payment, acq.fee, title/registration/doc fees. (about $2200?) So, $5000 more down to get it to $535/mo.+ tax..

So yeah... he's right. It's not a cheap car to lease.

Hello! Could you tell me the MF and Residual for a 2014 S4 PP 36/10? Also, are there any special odd month programs from Audi on these?

I have an S4 on hold currently (gave the deal a hold deposit) Here are my numbers: 3 yrs/12,000 per. Money Factor: .00032, $3000 due at signing (tax/$1408 down/695 bank fee, 1st month). Two months of my Jeep are included ($425 per). Monsoon Grey, Black nappa leather, Carbon Inlays, Side Assist, B&O, Sport Differential, 19" Supercharge Badges, Auto, no Nav. $695.00/month. My issue is the Summer tires that are on. Live on Long Island (potential cold/snowy winters). Don't want to lay out $1900+ for a set of 4 winter tires and rims. Two questions: Good lease rate? What to do about the tire issue? Let me know. Looking to make a decision by tomorrow.

.00032 is the base MF for the 2014 S4.

Have you talked to the dealer about swapping out a set of wheels with all-season tires on your car? Will that affect the MSRP and selling price?

The dealer would not swap the tires. Sucks.

Might be time to reach out to another dealer.

Soooo I did well?

Other than not waiting 3 months until your existing lease is up and rolling that cost into your new lease, yes.

You could use MSD to buy down the MF and save a few bucks each month.

Haha, okay fair enough. Let me rephrase: To me, based on what I've seen others post in this thread and other research I've done, this seems like a relatively great deal numbers-wise. Would you agree?
