Rotate it and re-post

m_garozzo

Sorry can't rotate I'm on my phone. Here are the basic numbers:
MSRP $49360
discount $6200
Gross Cap $43160
Cap reduction $963.12 (of which 495.62 is 1st month rebate from Audi)

Net Capitalized cost $42196.88
MF 0.00041
Residual 54% or $26654.40

Total due at delivery was $2514.07 made up of:
Upfront charges $1550.95 (Delivery, Tags, document fee) + first month + cap reduction of $467.50 

Payment is $495.62 ($459.67 + $35.65 tax)
SoCal and includes Audi Care for 36 months and 12k per year

Payment matched my calculations to the penny.  How did I do?

It looks pretty good. Given the lease program available, it's a good deal.

I'm in Las Vegas and am interested in a 17 Prestige A4 that has a sticker price of $55,590.

My first call got me a whopping 1024 a month quote with 1k down 12/36.

They then came back with a 5k discount on the car which brought the lease down to 756 which is also wacky number off of 5k MSRP reduction

That's still way too much money for an A4.

We have 8.1% tax what is a realistic number I should be negotiating for.

I thought for sure I could get into it for under $650 tax included with no money down, is that really a reach?

$5K off sticker? That's a tremendous discount.

Is this for FWD or Quattro?

I agree with the MF and residual.

VA has this nasty habit of charging sales tax against the entire selling price, which jacks up the lease payment.

The math is correct.

j24audi

Awesome, thank you! How much better off would I be leasing in Maryland?

Michaell

j24audi said:

None - you pay tax based on where you live, not where you get the car from.

FWIW, MD also taxes the entire selling price.

Thank you sir!

I'm in NY and sales tax is 7.375%. Looking to lease a 2017 A4 with premium plus, tech and cold weather packages, all weather floor mats, usb cables, wheel lock kit and gray oak inlays. Lease is 36 months, 12k miles.

MSRP is $48,655.00
Sale price is $44,339.43
Residual % is 54%
Adjusted cap cost is $43,957.43

I'm paying taxes and some fees (about $3k out of pocket). Lease payment quoted per month is $520. Good deal?

Looking for estimated lease payment (36/10k) in Texas (Tax 6.25%). 2018 A4 Premium Plus with Tech Pkg AWD - MSRP $48,900. Is negotiating down to around 45k realistic, and if so what might that monthly payment be? Assuming downpayment of all TTL. Much appreciated!

.00041 MF, assuming Quattro.

I get $520/mo on the nose, with those numbers.

However, we'd suggest you roll the taxes and bank fees into the adjusted cap. You'll have a higher payment, but your out of pocket will drop dramatically.

With your MSRP and selling price, I get $532/mo

We do, however, suggest that you only pay the first payment and DMV costs at signing - roll the taxes and fees into the lease payment.

A dealer here in South FL has a 2017 A4 P+ with a 6 speed manual, with an MSRP of $51,875. They're offering a $3,358.88 discount as well as a $750 owner loyalty discount. They are currently quoting me at $752/mo with $0 due at signing for 36mo/7,500mi with a MF of .00144. Should I expect a larger discount being that they are already receiving the 2018 models? I am torn between trying to get a better price on that car, or ordering a 2018. Is the MSRP on a custom build negotiable? Thank you!!

FWD or Quattro?

Either way, MF is marked up.

This is not a good deal, at all.

Your target is 6% off sticker, before any available incentives. If you can get more, the better.

audiswfl1

I apologize, it is a Quattro.

You are already getting about 6.5% off sticker; the MF bump is adding about $80/mo to the monthly payment.

Just did the math myself and got the same result. I will be going to the dealership tomorrow to see what I can accomplish. Thanks for all of your help!!!

I’m in South Florida. The dealer says they will honor a $750 loyalty rebate. As well as the Summer of Audi event which is covering the first months payment!

Should I expect roughly 6% off the MSRP on this vehicle? Thank you in advance.

Hi,
I'm looking at an 2017 Audi P+ 2.0 Quattro lease with tech pkg in Los Angeles.
36/10K
MSRP: 48625
Sale Price: 42,790
What MF and Residual should I be looking for?
What would monthly be with $1000 down?
Is adding Audi Care worth it?
Thanks.

Using your prices, I get $474/mo plus tax

AudiCare adds 1% to the residual, so it is a good deal.

Michael- would you agree the sweet spot is the 12k a year as it's two residual points above the15k? 

Also - thoughts on comparing a 2017 to a 2018 - 2018 residuals are worth yet 2 residual points more over a comparable 2017 yet the MF is higher at .00093 vs .00041...

You should get the number of miles that you think you'll drive.

You'd have to run the numbers for both the 2017 and 2018 to see which is better - not sure of what upgrades you would get in the '18.

And, you may get a bigger discount from sticker on the 2017.

Hi, Ive gotten a quote from a local dealer here in South Florida on a 17' A4 P+ MSRP of $51,675. They're giving me $7,208.53 off the MSRP. They've used the money factor of .00041 and residual of 54% like Michaell provided me. At 36mo/12k miles, with $1,500 due at signing, and $750 owner loyalty, they've got me at $520/mo tax included. Does this sound good? I'm still getting a number lower than that with my calculations but they swear this is the right price. Im planning to buy the car tomorrow morning, but just want to ensure I'm getting the best price possible. If I agree to $520/mo but request 15k miles per year, do you think they'd keep me at $520?

Hi:
Need some help understanding a Audi A4 P+ Quattro Auto lease in northern suburbs of Chicago. Drive a lot of miles and usually lease with 20K / year.

What would be the following for my area for both 2017 & 2018 models (36/20):

1) MF?
2) Residual?
3) Audi incentives?
4) Approximatly how much off MSRP could I expect get?

One dealer told me the monthly payment on a 2017 A4 P+ w/MSRP ~ $49.5K would be $ 760 /month with zero down which seemed very high to me. Need to understand if my payment target of under $600/month is feasible for an A4.

Thanks

Ask the dealer for the adjusted cap cost - likely that some fees (dealer? acquisition?) are being added into the discounted selling price.

2017 information:
.00041 MF
52% for 36/15; extra miles will cost you, I think, .15/mile deducted from the calculated residual
$1000 marketing allowance and complimentary first payment
We usually suggest 6% off sticker price, but if you look at the post above, you'll see that larger discounts are possible

The only promotion we see for NJ is a complimentary first payment.

Your price is just under 6% off sticker - as this is the end of the model year for the 2017's, you may be able to do better than that.

With your prices, I get $577/mo for 36/12, and $604/mo for 36/15

Hi, Michaell,

I got two lease quotes from local delear in Texas for 2017 A4, 36/10k

First one MSRP $43425, sale price $38200, MF 0.00041, RV 54%, 0 down, he told me the monthly $527 w/ tax.

Second one MSRP $43425, sale price $36911, MF 0.00091, RV 54%, 0 down, he told me the monthly is also $527 w/ tax.

However, my own calculate is different than the above quote, has he lied?
