In short, the easiest way to get a good deal on a leased vehicle is to shop around for the lowest possible selling price and then have the dealer that you decide to go with calculate your vehicle's monthly payment using its buy rate lease money factor.
I would be happy to work up a sample lease payment on the car that you are interested in for you if you provide me with its full MSRP and approximate selling price (or at least its MSRP and dealer invoice price).

Let's use these numbers to work up a sample lease payment for you. According to my calculations, if you were to lease the aforementioned car (MSRP $54,955, selling price $51,666...$500 over invoice) through Audi Financial Services right now for 36 months with 10,000 miles per year, your zero down, pre-tax monthly payment would be around $722.
The lease program for an otherwise identical 39 month lease is .00005 and 46%. Going with this term would lower this car's payment to $681.

Audi Financial Services' July buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 24 month lease of a 2010 A6 3.0T Avant Prestige with 10,000 miles per year are .00064 and 50%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its top credit tiers.
The numbers for an otherwise identical 27 month lease are .00064 and 48%.
The 30 month numbers are .00064 and 46%.
The 36 month numbers are .00064 and 43%.
The 39 month numbers are .00084 and 41%.
Audi is currently providing a $900 cash incentive on leases of this car through AFS. There's additional owner loyalty cash available on top of that, but no conquest cash.

According to my calculations, if you were to lease a 2011 Audi A6 3.0T Premium Plus with quattro that has an MSRP of $53,125 and a selling price of $50,125 through Audi Financial Services right now for 36 months with 12,000 miles per year, your zero down, pre-tax monthly payment would be around $668.
If you were to subtract the $1,500 conquest cash from this car's capitalized cost, its payment drops to around $626.

Looking at a 2011 A6 PremPlus, Sports Pkg, Mats/Liner msrp $53,675.
Would you have the September factors for 36mo., 15k miles?
Are they much worse for the Prestige pkg?
I received this email from my local dealership:
" We are in immediate need of quality pre-owned vehicles like your 2008 Audi A6. Therefore, Crown Audi would like 20 minutes of your time to make you an incredible offer on your vehicle.
YOUR VEHICLE MAY BE WORTH MORE THAN YOU THINK!
In most cases, we can offer you a high trade-in* allowance on your Audi, low interest rates with approved credit and great manufacturer incentives, saving you thousands on your next vehicle!"
My Question is 1. Is this a legitimate offer? 2. If so, are there penalties for terminating my lease early(9 months left) or do they have the authority to do so?
I have scoured all 3 of our local Tampa dealers and none of them have my specific vehicle model on their lot for sale. Thanks.
This is an advertisement, its goal is to get you in the door. They don't know whether you lease or own, they don't know what condition your car is, all they want is to give you a new car bug, so you will come in, hopefully test-drive something new, hopefully get excited and trade it for a new car.
No one is going to pay off your lease unless you buy a new car, and there is sufficient profit in the deal to cover the lease balance.
There is a chance that your car is super-clean, and your lease pay-off is less than actual trade-in value, but would not put my money on it.
In most cases a dealer will hire a mailer company that will send these letters to thousand of owners from dealership's database.
I wouldn't change one word...

It works same way regular trade works: dealer gets a payoff amount from the leasing bank, appraises the vehicle, and applies the difference to the new deal, positive or negative. There are no lease termination fees, but in most cases you will have negative equity.
You can do some homework on your own: call your leasing bank, and ask for the payoff, then get an estimate for your car through Edmunds.com or KBB, this should give you an idea of where you stand.
The only way to know for sure that you will "walk away" is to wait until the end of the lease.
Thanks, I appreciate you taking the time and giving me some insight.
For example, I'm told, with no cap reduction, and folding auto reg and acquistion fee into the lease, adding it to the monthly, that it's $585 for a 3.2 @ 49,355 MSRP and $618 for a 3.0 quattro@ $52.665 MSRP.. I don't know capitalized cost in each instance but, regardless, shouldn't the payments be about the same for both cars?
Or is the residual the problem?
If so, I'd consider the quattro, and just pay extra for the reduced mileage.
But I think they should throw in AudiCare, because isn't the money factor reduced when they do AudiCare.
In sum, what is the MF for both cars?
The money factor you have is correct, residual is the same, but I cannot help you beyond that, there is not enough information in your post, and I am not sure what you are asking.
I personally would get the Quattro regardless of a higher payment, because it is just a joy to drive, especially with the supercharged 3.0.
AudiCare raises the residual by one point, but it doesn't affect the MF.

So, I should ask for AudiCare for free, since the net cost to them is not that much.

You cannot have both. Yes, it lowers the residual, but you still have to pay the cost - about $800.
It is not free to the dealer, finance makes about $10 on every AudiCare sold.
If you get AudiCar for free - they will have to make it up on something else, there is no free lunch.
anyone have experience with trade ins such as this and what value can I expect? The blue book for trade in is $4,300 but I doubt I would be able to sell it for that.
any experiences/advice?

I find is strange that a dealer would not take it in trade. We take in trade anything with wheels, you might not like what we can give you for it, but we will take it.
I would suggest calling other dealers.

Thanks
PS
The numbers for an otherwise identical 36 month lease are .00017 and 50%.

The numbers for a 36 month lease of a 2011 S6 3.0T Prestige with 12,000 miles per year are .00017 and 49%. This car's 42 month numbers are .00037 and 45%.
The residual values for leases with only 10,000 miles per year are 1% higher.
Don't forget that Audi is waiving the first month's payment on leases this month.

Is this a good deal?

It would be easier for us to evaluate this deal if you provided us with this car's selling price. Let us know and I'm sure that either myself or another knowledgeable community member will let you know what they think.
