Thanks for posting your documents... very informative.

asec,
congrats on your new S4 and great deal. Can you list out the options you have and trim level this is? Also, do you not have sales tax in your state?

Input sought on Jan 36/12 Residual and Jan MF?
Also would be keen to know if Audi still allows MSD and if each one buys down .00007? Many thanks!

Audi does have an MSD program, but I don't know the specifics (.00007 sounds like BMW's program).

.00079 MF and 56% residual for Premium Plus model. 53% for Prestige

chitown15

Thank you. Yes that MSD buy down factor is the BMW program.
Question back to you. Do residuals and MF rates fluctuate within a month or only monthly?

Generally, it's monthly... if there is any mid-month update, it's usually cash incentives.

Recommended sweetspot term wise for 12000 miles/yr on Prem Plus? 36, 39, 42? If 39 or 42 Residual and MF much appreciated.

I like the 36 month term...but, 42 months is .00099 MF and 52% residual. That might give a slightly lower payment.

What's the general consensus on the extra tire care package (18" tires) and Audi Care on a 36 month lease?

Without knowing the price, I'll guess that it's overpriced...

Audi care is sold at the dealer cost, and adds 10-15 bucks more a month to the payment. Go for it. The first and second service cost as much as audi care. And you can pro-rate a refund if you trade out before your 45k service.

I am looking at a '15 S4. Here are details. Something is not adding up. Seems about $100 per month high.


MSRP--$59,155
Negotiated price--$55,966.10
36 months
7500 miles/year
2000 down to cover first month's lease, "fees", cap reduction cost.
Money Factor is .00079
Residual is 58%.
tax is 9.8%

Monthly payment per dealer is $753.08

Thoughts?

Premium Plus model?

That's the base money factor and the correct residual.

I get $673/mo.+tax, or about $739/mo. So, just $14/mo. difference.. (if the CAP cost is the same as the sale price). How much of your $2000 is going to CAP reduction?

bludool

Yes,
Premium plus model. $1,000 going to cap reduction.

That takes off about $28/mo on the payment.

Great forum. Starting negotiations and I just wanted confirm the February MF and residual for a 2015 Audi S4 Premium Plus 36months/10k and 12k. Also should these numbers be good through the end of February?
Thanks in advance.

Hard to say ... what is the MSRP and the net cap cost?

42 / 7500 numbers are .00099 and 54%.

uncletimee

the MSRP is 52845. I don't know the net cap cost. Is that a number I can get from the dealership? thx.

If you ask, they should provide it to you ... note that this is not the same as the agreed upon selling price. Net cap cost includes any taxes and fees added into the lease that you are not paying up front.

Me thinks the net cap cost is higher than the selling price they've given you - with those numbers, I'm showing $618.06/mo pre-tax, $663.64/mo after.

They could be rolling in those last two payments, for starters. Ask the dealer for the net cap cost and make sure you understand how they got to that number from the selling price quoted.

With your numbers, I'm showing a payment of $627.07/mo. I assume taxes are included in the cap cost?

Great Comments & Forum guys, I am also considering a 2015 prem plus S4, I have a build price of $55,100 what is expected sale price? I am thinking they could let it go for $52,900? With a MF of .00079 and residual of 57% for 12k year 36 month lease. Is this a good deal or should I expect the dealer to have a lot of heartburn about this?

Also, whats the best lease calculator out there? I am currently using the auto lease calculator dot com. seems pretty legit.

You have the MF right, but the 36/12 residual is 56%.

Can't help you with the selling price - read back a few pages in this thread to see what type of discounts others have been getting.

I built my own lease calculator in a spreadsheet.

dealerships are not budging, it may be the wrong time of year / month to lease cars, what are everyones thoughts on this? is my approach just off? most dealers around here are holding on to their MF pretty tightly... no one is budging below .0021 ish 900 payment per month at 55525 msrp - 1562 disc 12k yr / 36 month lease

Could be a simple supply / demand issues - not enough supply and too much demand equals higher prices and rates.

Audi dealers are allowed to inflate the MF by .00125 over the base rate. So, .00200 from .00079 is allowed - gouging, in my mind, but allowed.

You might want to expand your search of Audi dealers - all it takes is one dealer to agree to your terms.

good comments michaell thank you. this helps.

Thank you! Any chance of getting the MF lower on the 42 month to equal the 36 month of .00079? Also could you tell me the Residuals for 10K miles on both. Greatly appreciated.

No, that is the base rate for leases longer than 36 months ... Audi would rather you lease for 36 months or less to get the lower MF.

Add 1% to go from 12K to 10K

Hello, could you share the MF and residual on a 2015 S4 Premium Plus for March? It would be for 36mo / 12k/yr. Thanks you for your help, and any other specials this month?

Not sure if it is just CA but I was able to negotiate $500 back of invoice at one dealer and another beat it at $1000 back of invoice. My deal ended up as follows: 2015 Prem + S4, S Tronic with an MSRP of $59,320, Adjusted Cap Cost (Selling Price) of $55,188. Total drive off of $2,500. 36 Month Lease with 10,000 miles, 57% Residual, .00079 MF, total payment with tax: $688. I am very happy with my deal. The buy out at Lease end is $33,812! Work the dealer with the most inventory over!
