What are those fees? "motor vehicle" fee of $400? What is that for? The doc fee of $349 seems really high to me, but I guess it depends on what state you are in, and whether there is a limit or not in your state.
Don't let them lower the price, only to get you back with rather high and unnecessary fees.
Motor Vehicle fee is probably for plates and registration.
Another dealer has given a price that is even lower at $37,799. Fees are less than this dealer by 180 bucks as well. Is the price of the car good? It seems like it's good but i'm not sure if I can go lower. Again, this is for the 2011 A4 2.0T premium plus quattro with NAV.
this MSRP is higher than the 2010 MSRP,and if he's really gonna get it for that price, it is a wonderful price on audi now. Did he get any kinda rebate???? impossible to get.
It looks like a car that just came off lease with low miles. You need to find out the original sticker price of the car then you can figure out how much the dealer owes the bank for the car. If the car had a sticker of 38k, sold for around 36k the dealer would owe the bank about 19k. With that said there should be a lot of room to come down off of 25k. I would walk in off the street with a check for 21k and say take it or leave it and let them make the next move. A 2k gross profit is nice on a used car but there is usually more profit in a used car then new car.
I'm e-mailing around to local dealers and they're offering anywhere from invoice to $150 below on these cars. Most of them are Premium Package, with a few upgrades like a B & 0 radio, or a Nav system.
So this is the one I think I'm going to take. Again, would really appreciate some input.
Base Price: 33,550 Metallic Paint: 475 Premium Plus: 3,500 Nav/back up camera: 2,500 Bang & Olufsen: 850 All weather mats: 200 Exhaust tips: 130 Total MSRP: 42,030 After discount: 39,549.03
There is a CPO 2010 A4 Quattro Premium with 8,000 miles sitting on the lot in Rhode Island. Listed at 31,932. What would be a responsible offer if just walking into the showroom one day. Although I would probably either get finance with Audi or somewhere else.
First you need to get the original MSRP of the car and figure out the invoice price, the subtract $1,600.00 for the 8000 miles and about another 1500 since 2011 are out. That should get you a fair price for the car.
I was quoted 2011 A4 Premium AWD Automatic with Bluetooth/Homelink, Audi Music IPod Intergration, and Heated Front Seats for 32800 with metallic paint. I live in NYC and the state tax is 8.875%. The price OTD is 37K. Is this a good deal?
i just realized it was a typo.. the price for the car is actually 33800 including the options i mentioned. the price out the door is 37K. no customer loyalty or cash incentives. i didn't get to the financing part yet so i can't really say.
I bought my 2010 Audi Q5 in March after an end of lease A6 that I had for 36 months. After 5 months I have decided that I am a Sedan person and not an SUV type.
I loved the A6 but the prices have been skyrocketing. I called my contact at the dealership and told him I am interested in Trading in the Q5 and getting a 2011 A4 Prestige.
With Loyalty money I am sure I won't get hurt on the Trade (but I don't expect to get out scot-free) as I got a good discount on the Q5 and I will get a good discount on the A4.
My question is: What will I pick up in the way of a driving machine in the A4? Will I have difficulty going from an A6 to a Q and then to an A4?
I prefer a sedan and feel more comfortable. Living in Texas on some country roads I could go around the turns and never move an inch in the seat...with the Q5 I can't. Is the New 2011 A4 now bringing the gap between to old A4 and A6?
The invoice is 36,170 on the car you described without the mats and audi care. I have yet to see a car come in with just premium plus as the only option so it is difficult to tell what kind of deal you are getting. So you need to share with us the sticker price.
Well, I saw a car in this dealership with just the Prem Plus (plus metallic color), but was negotiating over the phone, so hard to say what the sticker on that car was. Here's what I was negotiating (and based on the info below I guess the sticker price / MSRP would be $38,910):
MSRP Invoice Base $34,140 $31,750 Prem Plus $3,400 $3,162 Delivery $875 $875 color $495 $495 Total $38,910 $35,787
Also, the dealer initially offered a 5.9% / 60 mo finance deal and later negotiated to 3.9% / 60mo.
If you are correct with the MSRP then you are getting a good deal at 35 and change. What dealer? Let us know if you get it at that price. Also there should not be a doc fee if you purchase the car, only if you lease. Someone jump in if I am incorrect.
Peabody, MA. Might buy the car this weekend, will let you guys know. I wish Audi had better financing rates like the BMW 0.9%/60mo deal. Anyone know if I can do better on the 3.9%/60mo offer they have given me? Any tips on whether external financing sources might be able to provide me a better deal? I am looking to finance for 60 months.
Audi is offering 4.9 at the moment for 60 months and some banks are offering 3.75. The dealer might be offering you a bank rate. Let us know if you pull the trigger, I am curious if you get that exact deal on a 2011. I can see getting it on a 2010 but that is the lowest offer I have seen for a 2011. Good luck.
Curious on how much people are getting for the 2011 Audi A4 Prestige S-Line. Sweet looking care. I'm still driving my car that I bought new back in November 1999 (141k 2000 Mitsu Eclipse). Time to upgrade!
That is a very good deal you received. If you could post the dealerships name and your salesman's name I am sure some of us would be interested. Thanks for the update.
Just bought a 2011 A4 Premium Plus with nav, wood inlay, chrome tips, blue pearl color/beige interior, all weather floor mats/trunk liner. MSRP was $39,980. Bought for $36,762 - below invoice.
As a current Mercedes owner, they knocked $1,000 off the price, so without that I would have been buying at $37,762 - which still would have been an excellent price to pay for this car. Motor Trend said dealer cost was $37,333, factory invoice was $37,634. Edmunds had the factory invoice at $37,243.
Excellent buying experience - may have been helped by the fact that this was the second dealer I went to and I knew the car well and didn't need any test drive.
I don't know if any of you guys have experienced this, but it has taken about 5 weeks for the dealer to find the car. Apparently, dealers in MA are running on slim A4 inventory. They couldn't find me the car I wanted, but found one with nav, prem plus, exhaust tips, metallic color, wood trim, all weather mats thrown in (MSRP - $41,920, Invoice - $39,047). I'll be paying $36,671 (OTD - $39,382). Paying for Audi Care and Resistall paint protection in addition. Felt like a good deal.
i have leased an audi a4 premium quattro......putting 5472 down...and monthly 439 including the audi car manitence and wheels and tires..heated seats and ipod interface included..no premuim plus package....for 3 year lease contract....can anyboy tell me whether it is too much about the price...the cars price is 38,184...IN NY.....? and IS IT WORTH BUYING THE AUDI A4 AFTER MY LEASE ENDS..PLSE DO REPLY ...GUYS ..WANT TO KNOW UR OPINON? leased my car from atlantic audi,west islip.ny
I have got a few quote for this car and the best one of the dealer has quoted was invoice + $250. But looking at a previous post, the invoice differs between edmunds, dealers and Motor Trend, which should I trust? I've seen ppl on this forum stating that they bought for below invoice, can you list the dealer names?

Both deals sound good to me, but then I think that you ought to really figure out what the fair fees are for your area.
