Thanks so much. It was great to go in informed and that is what the dealer gave me. Love the 7.75% CT "Luxury Tax" if it's over $50k. Got 2% off the MSRP. Went with 10k as it raised residual 3% and if I drive the extra 2k miles it will cost less to buy them after!
I'm considering the SQ5 Premium+ and Prestige 36/10 or 36/12. I'm located in South Florida. What is the residual and MF with and without Audi Care? Thanks!

Can you provide numbers for 2018 SQ5 PRESTIGE. 12K/year for 36 month. Residual and MF with excellent credit located in STL MO. Also taking about 6% off the MSRP, sound good?

Looking to see if my offer is a good one in New Jersey:
2018 SQ5 Prem Plus with Audi Care
6% off MSRP (sale price $57,000)
Loyalty bonus
Pay $1875 Inception fees
Monthly payment $727
looks ok to me...just got mine but prestige with those terms. May want to tell them to send the invoice over to you and make sure there’s no funny business happening. 6% should be invoice. Ask for $500 in credits cause they have $500 wiggle below invoice...car washes, floor mats, etc.
I have the actual sticker from the car. So the numbers are based on that. My real question is when I use a lease calculator with all of those figures I get a monthly rate of $680 Why do I get that vs the $727 from the dealer?
Welcome to America! Taxes...divide 727 by 680 and subtract 1...6.875% tax rate. Websites don’t give you the payment with taxes because everyone is getting quotes from different states and taxation on vehicles is different in some places. also FYI plan to add $2600 to price on extra maintanence packages that you’ll add in the finance office.
The Calculator I used was on Leasehackr and they have me factor in the 7% NJ Sales tax. my guy pretty reputable the number he gives will be the number. Also picking up my last 3 months on my A6 ($650 per month). Is this a no brainer or I can beat them down a little?

Doesn’t matter what your “guy” says, you’ll have to get maintenance packages which are not a part of the purchase of the vehicle, cause the car costs a lot to replace parts from wear and tear/usage since it’s an SQ5 not a Q5. Ask to speak with finance office about options. You’ll see. I’m just giving you fair-warning. Also picking up your last three months is nothing special...especially if it’s an Audi. That’s not costing him anything. I would squeeze and make as much juice as possible. You’re spending the money, not him.
price is including Audi care. I need something other than that?
No, AudiCare covers all your maintenance. It's a good deal, as it bumps the residual up 1%.
NJ taxes the sum of the payments, and collects the money up front. If you aren't paying the taxes as part of your drive off costs, they are being added back into the cap cost, and are subject to interest. That might account for some of the difference in the payment from your on-line calculator and the dealer.
Might I suggest you build your own lease calculator? That way, you are in control of all the variables, and not subject to the assumptions of something you use on-line.
Thanks, after going back and forth, I was given another offer that seems much better...
Prem Plus MSRP of $61,855 (includes more options I wanted than last one) Loyalty Benefit First month free Pay $1875 up front to cover Luxury tax, MV fees, dealer fees and tire tax Monthly cost including tax and Audi Care - $715
Assume this I should jump all over this one?
Would paying the acquisition fee up front do anything to help me lower the costs additionally?
I was actually just told they are using the acquisition fee in part of my inception fees already. So wondering if there is anything else I can or should do upfront to lower costs? Based on all I have seen on this thread and through research, the offer I was just given is really good. Let me know if I am missing anything. Really looking forward to getting this car!
maintenance yes just Audicare, but you’ll probably buy some lease protection plans in the finance office. (I generalized as ‘maintenance’). Most people don’t plan that into their payments. My extras were $2600. Look up protection plans through AFS. If you finance this (recommended) then you payment goes up.
Agree with Michaell, and I’m still recommending you ask to see the invoice. 8% is below invoice, so I’m wondering where they are making money besides moving units, the small AFS fee they receive, and any other backend $$

Frankly, I don't worry about whether the dealer is making money on the deal; I'm sure there are lots of secret programs that exist between Audi and the dealer.
The dealer wouldn't make the offer if they were truly losing money on the transaction.
And, the "invoice" may have no relationship to what the dealer actually paid for the car.
Just try to negotiate the best price you can and that you're comfortable with.
Agree Michael. Question I have is what is the concern "deal" has? Is it a bait and switch concern or something else I should be on lookout for? I have a relationship with the owner of the dealership, so my guess is they are doing me a favor by offering this discount.

At some point, you are going to have to trust them, or you will never get a deal done.
Just review the numbers carefully, and ask questions when you don't understand something. Remember, you have the ultimate power here, by getting up and walking away.
Hey There. I'm about to pull the trigger on a 2018 SQ5 premium plus. I see from other posts that the MF number might different by state. Here is what I have from the dealer so far:
Oregon (zip 97068) MSRP: $65,025 Savings: $3902.00 (about 6%) Rebate: $1450.00 Fees/Doc: $423.00 Term: 36mo / 10k mi/yr 64% on the residual $693.00 trade-in balance (final payment on previous lease)*** Amount financed: $60,789.00 (45 days to first payment) The payment they quoted was $776.89 ***they aren't offering anything beyond the residual ($38k) for my 2015 SQ5 premium plus with (29k mi)
Does anything look off from the above? It seems that the MF is high at around .0025. Should I ask for AudiCare? If so, should that bump the residual by 1%?

.00183 MF and 64% residual The money factor and residual are national. $720/mo. with base MF $788/mo. with .0025 MF AudiCare is $869. Add that to your CAP cost and with the residual bump, the payment goes up by about $10/mo. which is cheap for what you get.
If they give you a check for the last three payments, you'll still be on the hook for any end of lease charges (damage, mileage, etc.). Just food for thought.

Somehow my earlier comment didn't go through. Anyway can you or someone confirm the deal seems ok, largerly looking for confirmation of numbers.
2018 SQ5 Premium Plus, 36/10k miles
MSRP: 61,140
Sale Price: 60,000
NY State Tax - Rolled into payments
$1000 Down Cap Reduction
Loyalty $750
$799.27
If i run the numbers using MF / Residual I have from August I get to $815 which on surface 799.27 would appear good.
Is it $1000 due at signing? Or, $1000 + 1st payment + etc.. ?

The money factor and residual are national.

$788/mo. with .0025 MF
AudiCare is $869. Add that to your CAP cost and with the residual bump, the payment goes up by about $10/mo. which is cheap for what you get.

"Taking Back"? You're certain those payments are not finding their way into the new lease?
