Any help or guidance here is appreciated. Are Money Factor rates negotiable?
I received the same email too. If some one on here with a little more knowledge knows how this works please let us know how this jives. I read the fine print and it seemed reasonable, however, it also said this: "To qualify for program customer must make all deferred payments". Huh? It seems contradictory.
I'm looking to get out of my A6 payments and into more of the A4/A3 range if possible. But if there is really no "loyalty" incentive to stay with Audi, I might as well just ride it out and go back shopping when my lease is up in June.
AFS' B Tier rates are .00040 higher than its A tier rates. If you are B Tier, your payment would rise to $472.

Audi Financial Services' current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2011 A4 Avant Premium Plus with 15,000 miles per year are .00119 and 51%, respectively.
Audi is not currently providing support on 48 month leases, but you can go with a special 42-month lease if you want.
Using these numbers, an MSRP of $41,400, and a selling price of $40,315, I estimate that this car would have a zero down, pre-tax monthly payment of around $607.
If you're able to get the selling price dropped to $39,000 it would lower the payment to around $569.

I am looking to lease a 2011 A4 Sedan Quattro Premium Plus with the nav package and B&O sound system. If the above package is not available then I may go for the Prestige trim.
Can you please give me the residual and lease factor for a 36 month 10k lease?
Appreciate the information. Thanks.
Just as a reference: Yesterday, I leased a 2011 A4 with Prestige Package for 36 months/10k mi. Money factor was .00109 (according to the 8 dealers that I spoke to, this is the lowest money factor you can get for top tier credit.) Residual was 50%.
By the way, B&O sound is out of this world. Amazing!
Good luck with your lease.
It looks like either 1) Audi has made too much money and doesn’t care or 2) They are not interested in leasing any more.
The residuals absolutely stink compared to comparable BMWs/Mercs/Infinitis. I like the car but it seriously isnt THAT much better to command such a hefty premium. Looks like I have to shop around for other cars now
The numbers for an otherwise identical lease of the Prestige trim level are .00109 and 50%.

I've been offered an A4 with MSRP of 35225....they are asking 1680 drive off incl first month, payment of 398/month including 9.75% CA sales tax. 42 month lease/10K. the selling price is 32281, or 1500 under invoice...seems good, but what do i know!
they have also offered to reimburse me for my final month of my current lease (about 450).
i think i have 750 in loyalty cash (or is it 500)?
questions: can i do better and should i wait until end of march, when my lease is due? after all, the 450 they are paying me for my car should be discounted off the car price, right? also, i've paid for this month - still have two weeks left.
and finally, when negotiating a lease, should i tell them about being a current owner? it would seem better to negotiate, then hit them with the loyalty rebate.
thanks.
questions
Being a current Audi owner will definitely work to your advantage. Audi is currently providing a $750 owner loyalty cash incentive on leases of the 2011 A4. To me, it doesn't really matter when you mention the fact that you are a current owner. Just negotiate a selling price that's as close to dealer invoice as possible before the subtraction of any available cash incentives.

Question: Audi Financial Services money factor and residual for a 36 month and 42 month lease
Please, Thanks
I live in southern california, and have a credit score over 750. Is there any way I can get a lease for $350 per month?

I feel like I can do better, would this be a reasonable counteroffer?

One dealer quoted me 997 in drive off fees, and another about 1,600 (which includes bank acq fee, dips fee, registration, etc).
I also noticed that the factory invoice includes about $650 in inspection and advertising fees, which I really don't want to pay.
Finally, I have an aol best deal quote for 1100-1200 below invoice, and I'd be willing to do up to 1,000 cap reduction. Thanks again.
Can you provide the 39 month special Money factor and lease rates for the premium plus Quattro?
Looking for both 12k and 15k miles per year.
I was unaware of the 39 month special and wondering how it compares to the the march rates on a 36 month lease.
Thanks

Chris-
So the dealer knew first hand that I couldn't and didn't want a payment over $500. Some how he hypnotized me into agreeing to $600 a month + pay $1,000 cash deduction because the car I wanted had "MORE" features however, there weren't any new features than I didnt already have on a 04 Navigator. I had negative equity, they offered $13,300 and I owed $15,500. So I was suppose to carry over $2,200. Looking over the contract it doesn't add up can any one give any help and tell me how bad they screwed me over?
Sticker price on the car said $37,100
Online Ad $35,987
Contract reads agreed upon value $39,562.62 (I'm assuming they took the 37,100 on the MSRP and added the negative equity to the Value of the Vehicle (isn't that illegal to document it that way? and Isn't it illegal to advertise a car for a certain price and then mark the price up (before fees)? )
$695 Acquisition Fee
$1298.77 Sales Tax (Gross Receipts Tax)
$93.50 Initial Licenses, Tital and Reg. Fee
$399.00 Document Fee (where did this come from!?)
$800.00 Audi Care
$42,848.89 Gross Capitalized Cost
_________________
$1000 Capitalized Cost Reduction
=41,848.89 Adjusted Capitalized cost
$17,437.00 Residual Value (isn't this a lot for a 12,000 miles for 42 months)
$24,411.89 Depreciation and and Amortized amounts
$1220.29 Rent Charge
$25,632.18 Total of Base Mothly Payments
42 Lease payments
$610.29 Base Monthly Payment & Total Monthly Payment
Any help on this calculations would be greatly appreciated. I am not sure of the interest rate that they gave... or anything.... they defitnitely took advantage of my kids patience and me being in a hurry to leave without the car.. and come back.. they said it will take 5 mins for the paperwork and thats seriously all it took because I was ignorant and mentally exhausted from my kids that I didnt take time to read and look and calculate the fees that magically appeared when "we dont have bogus fees like Infiniti or Lexus, Ive worked there" that came out of the General Sales managers mouth.
For a 39 month lease (which he said gives me the best deal) with $0 down payment and 12K miles per year I am paying $519 a month which includes the NY sales tax of 8.375% included in the payment. I need to give him 1st month payment, bank fee and doc fee of about a total of $1600 at signing. He said that if I want the wheel and tire hazard insurance ($1000) and the audicare ($800) we can roll that in for another $45 (approx) per month on top of the $519. How did I do?
That sounds like an incredible deal. I was just doing the calculations on a similar car minus the sport package and by my math a good deal would be $585 / month on 39 month lease with 12k miles per year. What dealership gave you that deal? Can you share?
If the selling price drops to dealer invoice, the payment would drop to around $414.

The residual value for a lease with only 12,000 miles per year would be 2% higher.

Quartz Gray
Titanium Sport Package
39 month / 15k per year

Audi Loyalty -$750
Final Sales Price: $37,368 (invoice was $37,214)
Paid 8% Tax, Title, License and Acq. fees up front. Rolled $1,790 in trade equity (payment would have been $46/month higher without the rolled equity)
Total monthly payment $449.98
Car had to be special ordered and is expected late may / early june. $500 deposit locked in the lease rate which can only change if lease programs get better between now and delivery.
What is the March 2011 money factor for 42-month lease, top-tier credit, please?
I have a manual A4 Premium Plus on the way under a $500 deposit. I figure invoice at $36,778 and current offer from dealer is $1250 off, for price of $38,230. (Any thoughts on leaving $1452 on the table? Audi popular in these parts. Fair purchase price I have found online shows $38,888).
Any help very much appreciated, and thanks in advance for you assistance!!
You realize that those prices of over $600 a month is what people are paying on luxury sedans like the M, E, and 5? Plus, don't forget, Audi still does not have reliability in its favor compared to BMW and Infiniti. Plus, if you have top tier credit, there is no reason the payments should be that much. I could see paying over $600 a month on a A6 but not a A4.
I've seen rates ranging from 49-57%.
thanks for your help
Unfortunetly, Audi's don't lease well, espeically when residuals are set in the low 50% range, unlike BMW who have residual values around 58%.
So if you want to lease an Audi you are going to pay more a month then the BMW 3 series and the C class. Only way around it to buy it....
Audi Financial Services' March buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 39 month lease of a 2011 A4 Premium Plus Sedan with 15,000 miles per year are .00072 and 49%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier.

I was recently offered a deal for a 2011 A4 CVT with the following terms:
10k miles/Year
39 months
$767 + Tax due at delivery
$348/ month
Southern California dealer
I was trying to do the calculations for this through my "home made" lease calculator and assuming a Money Factor of .00072, the residual value came out to 59.6%. Could this be true?
Is this a good deal? and if these terms remained the same, how much do you think it would cost for a 15k miles/year limit?
Thanks in advance
12k miles
36 months
Zero down
750 loyalty credit
Monthly payment not including tax is $470.
Wish I got titanium pack
Have to say, I think I got a good deal from reading all the posts. I also have to say this car isn't nearly as fun or rewarding as my 2008 TT. I guess this is the price of getting a grown up car..
I was offered the following deal...
A4 2.0 t AWD premium plus
39,455 msrp
37,543 cap cost
0 down
49% residual
.00092 MF
39 months
15,000 miles
$520 a month
Thoughts?
Thanks in Advance!
