    thank you so much, I'm new to leasing, does that mean I bring up the money factor to the dealer? or how does that work?

    Politely but firmly inform the dealer you won't sign with an inflated MF.

    Hey Everyone (Financed). Picked up Mythos Black 2015 A3 Premium Plus Quattro. Packages: Audi MMI Nav, Premium Plus, Technology and Convenience. MSRP $42,720. price paid $37,299.00. Please advise if this was a good price paid. This was in Edison NJ with Jason. I had a tentative deal with Freehold Audi for A3 Packages: Audi MMI Nav, Premium Plus, MSRP 40420. They wanted 37299 as well but the guy at Bell said he would give me a better car for the same price and I jumped on it. The car is great and has all the amenities. I specially like the weather mats that I got for the winter month. I wont be ruining my regular mats. Let me know what you guys think of this deal.

    Do you know the MF and Residual for the A3 1.8 Premium and Premium plus for August? 36 or 42 months (whichever's the sweet spot) and 7.5K miles. Thanks.

    36/7.5 for 1.8T Premium is .00014 and 57%. Subtract 3% for Prem Plus.

    42 month numbers not as good, frankly.

    Saw a new '16 model and the price went up $1k from our '15. Seems like they added a few things that weren't standard from our year but not sure what. So far, oil change/rotation and free car washes are all that we've needed...we are very pleased with our white over black 1.8t model and hope it remains so!!

    I went to an Audi dealer and looked at a new 2015 A3 sedan, 2.0 TFTI , monsoon gray, with an MSRP at about $42,000, but we got to an agreed cost of $37,019.84. The terms are a $1,500 down payment (contract says $3,000 down, but I received $1,500 in discounts: $1,000 regional discount and $500 legacy discount) and $500 per month (monthly cost includes taxes), with 12k miles per year. Does that sound fair?

    What trim level? MF is .00043 but the residual varies between 57% (Premium) and 52% (Prestige).

    Ask the dealer what the net cap cost is; if higher than the selling price, find out why.

    It's a Premium Plus. It has the following:
    Audi MMI Navigation Plus w/ Audi Connect
    Driver Assistance Package
    LoJack Recovery

    I don't know the net cap cost... I have a copy of what the lease agreement would look like though. Would it be on there?

    Hi. At the end of July I leased a 2015 A3 Cabriolet 2.0T Premium Plus with Tech for 36 months, 7,500 miles/yr. This forum was helpful, so here are the numbers:

    MSRP: $46,625
    Total Cap Cost: $39,980 (including $695 AFS Lease Acquisition Fee and incentives/rebates of $4,350 from lease cash, AFS loyalty, USAA incentive and credit from dealer for 2012 leased Audi being returned with resale value higher than residual)
    Total due at delivery: $600 (including 1st month payment and tag transfer)
    Money Factor: .00054
    Residual: 55%
    Monthly Lease Payment (before tax): $392

    Hope this helps!
  • infoseeker8infoseeker8 Member Posts: 77
    Correction above: Total Cap Cost was $39.740, not $39,980.

    ...and by Tech I mean Navigation and Driver Assistance Package.

    Requesting mf and residual on base 1.8 premium. 36/10k.  South Florida. 

    Higher trims result in lower residual? Is 36 months the "best bang for buck" length term? 

    Thanks!

    Wow I just realized Audi also does msd. 2 dealerahips told me they didn't. How can this be legal to blatantly lie about this?

    .00014 and 56%.

    Yes, higher trim levels have a lower residual - subtract 3% for Prem Plus and 5% for Prestige.

    36 months seems to be the sweet spot for Audi lately.

    Legal? Dealers mis-state the truth all the time; your job is to see through that and get your best deal. Knowledge is power. Now, with that said, you can only use 1 MSD on the A3 Premium, as Audi will not allow a lease with a MF lower than .00005.

    Thank you so much for this. Can I use additional money security deposits on higher trims ? So one security deposit reduces the money factor by .00005 percent is that correct?

    MF is the same for all 1.8T A3's - only the residual is different

    Yes, each security deposit lowers the MF by .00005
