A7 Lease Buy-back Question

edited May 2019 in Audi
I have a 2017 Audi A7. I did a 3 year lease / 30k miles total but only have 15,000 miles on it currently. My lease is up in 6 months and current payment is about $1000 per month. Residual is $43,000. Audi offered me $49,000 for the car, which equates to about the same as my residual plus 6 months of payments at $1k/mth. Am i missing anything here or is this a decent deal? Bluebook value for a private sale with same mileage is $49k as well.

Also, is there negotiating room there or is that a take it or leave it, have never returned a lease before.

Thanks in advance.
