also, on edmunds, special edition adds about 925 to the msrp price, but someone said it includes heated seats, leather interior, which is a value of 1300. if it also included premium paint, that's another 450...
the thing is most dealers claim to not know what this is, so if you want these, they charge you for it separately.

As far as cash incentives go, Audi is currently providing $1,500 owner loyalty cash to current Audi Financial Services' lessees who lease a new A6. I'm not aware of any loyalty cash on the S4 though.

Another important factor to focus on when negotiating a lease is the money factor that is being used to calculate your car's monthly payment. Audi Financial Services' current buy rate money factor for a 36 month lease of a 2008 A4 2.0T Sedan with quattro is .00025. Make sure that the dealer uses this factor to calculate your monthly payment.

how the factor numbers work?
I live in florida (miami) and if I have any loyalty discount.
thanks for your help
You never mentioned what the full MSRP is for the A4 that you are interested in, so it is difficult for me to tell how much of a discount you are getting on it. This car probably has a spread of around $2,500 between its full MSRP and its dealer invoice price. If I was in the market for one in an area that has a decent level of competition right now, I personally would aim for a $2,000 discount and see what happens.

As far as what fees to expect to pay at lease signing on an AFS lease goes, typically you would have to pay your vehicle's first month's payment, a security deposit that's equivalent to the monthly payment rounded up to the nearest $25 increment, a $575 acquisition fee, and any required state taxes or fees.

As I said earlier, once you know exactly how much money it is going to cost you to buy your leased vehicle you need to compare it to its current value on the open market. You can find out approximately what your vehicle is worth by looking up its Edmunds.com True Market Value in the Used Vehicle Pricing section of this site. You also may want to stop by the following discussion: "Real-World Trade-In Values".
If the difference between your car's real world value and its purchase price is less than the excess mileage penalty that you would have to pay if you were to return it, and your car has not been in any accidents or given you any mechanical problems then you may want to consider buying it at lease-end.

looking at 36 month and 48 month lease with 12k
Thanks!
I've gotten a price on an 2008 Audi 2.0 CVT Cab w/ sticker just under 44K of 850 drive off/500 month/36months...this includes CA tax., I think 10K a year, but its really is irrellevant - I only put about 5K a year on my car.
Another option, is A4 Sedan, 2.0 cvt w/sticker of 32.5 for 425/10k/36mths incl. tax. Not really excited about that - have had two plain A4 sedans in past 12 years...looking for something different.
Comments on pricing, anyone?
I was offered this deal on a 2008 Audi manual trans Quattro in Brilliant Black /black interior with these options: sport suspension, premium, heated seats and dark wood trim
For 36 month/15 K deal my payments would be $399 month + tax ($20), $0 sign and drive. Security is waived becuase I previuosly financed with VW credit (5 years ago). Acquistion and first month rolled into the payments
MSRP on the car is: 33725
Only catch is the car is at another dealer and they said they needed me to sign a P&S. Becuase the car is on the lot at another dealer they said they can't guarantee they can get it. Car is not a special edition, but has same options except metallic paint. Do you think I can do better? Tough to find the sport suspension unless you get an S-line option which typically come loaded up and would be about 60-70 more exp per month (with other options). I did not get Audi Care but wondering how much that would add to the price since it increases residual by 1% ($337) and only cost $590
Looking to lease 2008 A4 FWD CVT Special Ed with S-Line package, Titanium package and Dolphin Gray Metallic in Los Angeles area. I would like 12,000 miles/yr and 3 year lease. I notice with these options MSRP is $34,000 and Invoice $31,674. I also notice Audi USA has a special 3 yr lease deal for $339/mo with premium package, 10,000 miles/yr and a total due at lease of $3,139.
Any idea what would be a good lease rate? If I want to lease for only 2 yrs would that reduce the monthly lease amount?
Regards.
We are in NJ and priced a 36-42 month lease with 10-12K A4 quattro 2.0 with premium, heated seats, ipod audicare and bluetooth for about $406-415 a month with zero down. Seems like your price is very high. Is it the 3.2
Car: 2008 2.0T Brilliant black Quattro with black interior (so much nicer than gray or beige interior IMHO) heated seats, premium, dark birch wood (prefer silver but wood actually looked nice) and SPORT suspension (only two black cars in NE with sport according to Dealer). Sport brings the wheels down an inch but looks soo much better than than stock ride height. Anyway onto the lease deal...
MSRP: 33725
Lease term: 36 month
Mileage allowance: 45k (15k per year)
Rate: .00025 (=.06%)
Residual:55% (54% + 1% fadded for Audicare)
Fees: $0 drive offfAll fees were rolled into lease including registration ($120), doc fees ($260 ouch!), first month lease fee ($400), acq fee ($575), sticker ($29) and Audi Care ($590) plus a few others for reigsering but I forget.
Cap cost with all fees rolled in: $32,470
Monthly lease: $388 + $19 (5% MA tax)= $407 a month
Funny thing is I added Audi Care at last minute after talking to Service group. They said the second service for the A4 costs about $400 alone and all the services added up over 45k would cost at least $1100. AduiCare was a no brainer . Although it costs $590 up front, you get back some becuase it adds 1% to your residual (in my case $337) so it only really cost you $7 X36 or $252.
As I was looking over the final paper work I found two errors. First the finance guy forgot to roll in the first month as agreed upoon. So he redid paper work. Then he gave me the paper and it said $407 per month, but using all the number and the leaseguide.com calculator, I kept getting $399 + tax. We kept looking over the numbers and I finally realized his $407 INCLUDED tax (so he was actually $388 + $19 tax).
My wife is going to have a hard time beleiveing that we are better off now with a new car than 7 year old BMW with 105k. Sold that for 10k and used the money to pay off my loan on my 05 Jeep (which was $375 per month and had about 3 years left) . SO my total payments for autos only rose $30 per month and I have no maintenance cost or repairs for the next 3 years on the Audi (well maybe brakes and possibly tires depending on how I drive). Over the next 45k the BMW was due for a clutch ($1000 ), brakes (all 4 for $600), tires ($650), and at least 5 oil changes ($500), plus nothing was under warranty any longer.
let me know if anyone is interested
looks like bait and switch. prob. only that one vin /car is available at this price..
What state are you in? Pls give more details if this is doable in NJ. Thx
of $275 a month, with 2645 down on an a4 2.0t quattro.
2645 consists of first month, 1795 down, 575 bank fee, no sec deposit
it gives a vin num and says it's ibis white, so i don't know if
it's only available on this specific one...but seems to show lease
prices are starting to come down?
model quoted includes premium pkg, heated seats, s-line, cd changer,
moon roof, leather, etc.
at this price, 36 month lease payments total 12,270 which sounds like a great
deal.
What do you mean "advertising to insiders"? Riverside is 8 minutes from my home (closest Audi dealer) but I went in there and experienced very poor service (salesman thought I wasn't a buyer so he blatently blew me off to go get stroked by an A8 dreamer (no intention of buying). I might have signed a deal that day if I was treated well. Regardless, if the special you spoke of was by email, would you mind forwarding it to me? chinleft@yahoo.com
thanks so much!
anyone deny/confirm/opinion?
aparently residual will be worse by a couple of percent...
ideas?
what would be a good deal on a 36 month lease for an A4 in houston metro area.
$299/month 36 month 10k lease
a4 2.0t heated front seats, s line exterior pkg, ipod, prem pkg.
brilliant black/black stock #01291
must bring ad in. is this another case of only one car avail at this price???
An FYI to all, the Special edition does not get that low moneyfactor.
Riverside Audi (bait and switch-sorry the Ibis white special is no longer available however...)
3793 total out the door 325 mo x 36 mo @ 15k per year with Audi care. Quote includes some unknown 1000.00 rebate-incentive. Must sign by end of Feb.
Bell Audi (said Riverside is shady and the numbers are not possible)
2000 total out the door 440 mo x 36 mo @ 15k per year with Audi care. Quote includes some unknown 1000.00 rebate-incentive.
Princeton Audi (said both dealerships are wrong, there is no 1000.00 rebate available unless you are employed by a company that uses Audi Fleet sales.His belief is that they'll discover oops, you don't qualify, these are your new numbers).
2000.00 total out the door 424.44 mo x 36 mo @ 15k per year with Audi care. He said his numbers were good until 3-31.
DCH Audi of Millburn agreed with Princeton about the 1000.00 rebate being B.S. He said his numbers were similar in the 2000.00 / 430 mo range. I explained that I needed to be at or under 400 mo / 15k / 2000.00 total. He said it's the end of the month, you never know, we can work something out...
All I want is some firm numbers. The 408 a month deal with $0 cash out doesn't seem too much to ask for. Does anyone have a great deal in NJ? I figure it doesn't matter where in NJ I lease from, I can use the Audi care at a local dealer for service. Help!
A4, 2.0T Quattro, Conv. Pkg, Prem Pkg., Navigation w CD changer (not ipod), Black with Beige leather interior. MSRP should be $39,150 inc destination charge. I live in NJ (7% sales tax)
I could pull the trigger by the end of the month.
So, what do I do.... go find the exact car first? Or do I figure out how much I'm willing to pay? Or do I ask car man for the money factors and other details?
So lost... pls help! Like anyone else, I dont want to pay one penny more than I have to.
Thanks!
nluster - the car I'm probably getting is the same car eastbeast except I'm also getting heated seats and bluetooth. DCH and Paul MIller seemed less negotiable on price. I'm using another dealer (none that you mentioned) and I think the deal I'm getting is ok. You can email me at adamwizon@gmail.com for more info.
There is a lease spreadsheet that is available on the web (an excel spreadsheet) that will produce accurate lease numbers once you plug in selling price, resid, and mf. I always check my deal on the spreadsheet first.
As much as I want a decent price on the car, I also want a dealer I can service the car with.
Im a little pissed about the change in moneyfactor and began looking at other vehicles. My lease is up in a month and I refuse to be "held hostage" by Audi and any chnges they make.

Hi
We are in NJ and priced a 36-42 month lease with 10-12K A4 quattro 2.0 with premium, heated seats, ipod audicare and bluetooth for about $406-415 a month with zero down.
Looking to replace a financed 2003.5 1.8T 5spd with a 2008 2.0T AWD 6spd by the end of the month if the deal works.
Region is Columbus, OH. Car is financed through Audi Financial and will be paid off prior to a new lease and sold at a later date.
What should I be shooting for a money factor and amount over invoice?
Looking at 12k for either a 36 or 42 month term.
Are there any programs out there that I should be aware of?
Also whats the story with the special edition? All I want is the sport suspension, heated seats, CD and leather interior.
Thanks in advance.
Mike
