I'm in love with the car, but don't know what a good deal is. I'm looking at a car that costs $51,975. I want to lease for 3 or 4 years, and put at little as possible down. I've been offered the following:
41months x 828+tx = $909.27 12k/yr with BMW conquest program rates.
How does this sound? I think it could be a pretty bad quote, but it's the only car that is around in the area... any figures would be really appreciated. My current lease is up in three days--need to get a car ASAP!
If u can live with A6 3.0T Quattro Premium Pkg w/Nav...here:
Leasing
Start: 03/03/2010 End: 05/03/2010 $599.00 Month
39 Month Term
$2550 Down Payment
$0 Security Deposit (waived)
10,000 Annual Mileage
Restrictions Lease is based on 2010 A6 3.0T quattro with Premium Plus Pkg, Tiptronic, navigation system and destination charge. MSRP of $52,425. Advertised lease offers require dealer contribution; final negotiated price may vary by dealer. See dealer for details.
Comments $3774 due at signing. Dealer participation may vary.
I'm sure Sales Tax NOT included in payment.
Residual = 46%
MF = 0.0005= 1.2%

I really need an approximate selling price to work up a payment on this car for you, so I'll have to make an assumption.
According to my calculations, if you were to lease a 2010 Audi A5 2.0 Premium Coupe with quattro, an MSRP of $39,995 and a selling price of $38,995 through Audi Financial Services right now for 36 months with 15,000 miles per year, your zero down, pre-tax monthly payment would be around $566.

We would like to order another one and was wondering if the prices went down.
I'm planning to lease a Black Audi A5 Quattro Coupe with automatic transmission. I want the premium plus version with the sports package on it but no navigation.
I had a couple of questions:
1. Should I put any money down? It lowers my monthly payments but people say it's not a great idea to put any money down when leasing.
2. What are the money factor and residual numbers for a 36 months lease (both for 12,000 and 15,000 miles per year)
3. Is this car a good choice overall in terms of holding it's value and maintenance costs?
I'm planning to buy the car by the end of April and would appreciate any feedback,
Regards,
Farhan
Does this look right and do you agree?
Thanks
2) Not sure what the rates are for April
3) Value yes, maintenance no. you are highly recommend to get the audi maintenance care and the wheel insurance, lessons learned in my experience with warranty and issues with the roads esp here in NY/NJ... its just not worth the risk. if you want to buy a 45k car, dont treat it like some 15k KIA.
Audi Financial Services' current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2010 A5 Coupe Premium with quattro and 15,000 miles per year are .00118 and 53%, respectively. The residual value for a lease with only 12,000 miles per year would be 2% higher.

What are the current money factor and residuals for a 15k miles year for 36 or 42 month lease. Can anyone please help?
Horrible residual. Maybe better off buying. I was considering this car, but boxsters have much better deal for leasingif you don't mind the 2 seater. You might wanna consider 3 series coupe too. Great lease deals on them, but I had to return my 335i coupe today due to numerous failures.
BTW, if you google few key words, its very easy to find those info.
Yes, I have decided against the A5. Was at a dealership, was quoted $500 over invoice for a A5 2.0 Quattro Prem Plus for a 15k miles/year and 42 months.. the payments were over $660/month with $1000 out of pocket.
Your posts are very helpful. Im trying to lease an A5 and the dealer is telling me that the residual for a 10K per year lease is 53%. According to some older posts it sounds like it's 58%. What's the right number on this and what is the source?
Much appreciated!

MSRP 45750
36 months
12 K
0.00099 MF

Am I getting hosed here?
Thank you

FYI I went and looked at the Acura TL's for the heck of it and it is a much better deal. It's not as stylish as the A5 however the residual is 58% as apposed to 50% and they are willing to work a lot more on the price. I got a TL fully loaded v6 v-tech 305 hp with every possible option they had AWD and the lease price came out to $529 same money down as the A5 which had a monthly payment of $720
Worth taking a look at
1) FWD
2) The way the car looks....I am sorry but the styling on the new TL is simply poor, at best.....the rear especially. It looks like it was designed on a Lego set. IMHO
If you are looking for someone to help you justify making a 600+ payment on a 2 door vehicle, I just dont see that happening.
some things in life you pay, and theres no rhyme or reason. To compare an ACURA to an AUDI really isnt apples to apples, because the car experience that both companies are aiming for is north and south.
Buy the car thats best for you, and if money is the biggest factor, then buy the car you can really afford.
Can you please provide the June Residual and MF for 2010 A5 2.0 Premium and Premium plus 36 months, 12k miles per year.
thanks

Can you please provide the June Residual and MF for 2010 A5 2.0 Prestige plus 36 months, 10k miles per year.

The numbers for an otherwise identical lease of a '10 A5 2.0 Premium Plus are .00099 and 50%.
When negotiating your deal on this car, make sure to take advantage of the $750 cash incentive that is currently available on leases of it to current Audi, BMW, and Mercedes owners.

I've been offered the following lease on an A5 premium...black on black, blue tooth, ipod interface & a couple of other options
3000 down
560 per month (including taxes)

Is this a good deal?
Thanks!

Do you know when Audi Financial will release the lease numbers for the 2011 A5 models?
I placed a deposit on an A5 Premium Plus w/navi, BO system and spt package. Was hoping they would have some lease specials for their 2011 models when released.
Dealers have very limited 2010 inventory. South Florida had 4 between 2 dealers!
thanx
Consumers who make large cap cost reductions on leased vehicles risk losing part or all of them if their vehicle is totaled in an accident or stolen and never recovered. Even though it means that your monthly payment will be a little higher, you will be safer going with a zero down lease.
As far as how good a deal this is goes, it would be easier to tell if you provided us with this car's MSRP and selling price first. The selling prices of leased vehicles are negotiable, just as if you were paying cash for or financing them. Without this number, it is difficult to tell how large a dealer discount you are being given and in turn whether there is any room left to negotiate. Let us know what these numbers are and I'm sure that either myself or another knowledgeable community member will give you their opinion on them.

I am from Ann Arbor, MI and I just got a quote from my local dealer:
2011 automatic 2.0T Premium Plus
B&O
MSRP 43,250
Dealer price 41,250
36mo, 12,000mi lease: $1500down, 625/mo inclusive of 6% tax
Is this a good number? Is there any incentives/specials for lease packages?
I appreciate the help in advance!
I recently received a quote on a 2010 S5 with Prestige package (DC Metro).
MSRP: $63,200
Negotiated Price: 60,750
For a 12k/36 month lease, the dealer provided a residual of 51% and APR of 7.76% (mf ~0.003233). The money factor seems incredibly high. Would you happen to know the current money factor for this car?
The numbers for an otherwise identical 39 month lease are .00155 and 46%.
It's difficult to say what Audi's July lease program will be like for this car. With the 2011 models arriving soon and the beginning of a new quarter, its residual values are almost certain to fall. The question is how much will Audi enhance the A5's money factors by...just enough to offset the drop in residuals, not even enough to do that, or enough to make a meaningful improvement in this car's program. It is difficult to say at this point.

Audi is not providing any cash incentives on 2011 models yet.
Just make sure that the dealer uses Audi Financial Services' current buy rate lease money factor of .00172 to calculate your car's payment and you're in business.

Through July 5th, Audi Financial Services' buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2010 S5 Coupe Prestige with 12,000 miles per year are .00196 and 58%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier.
The money factor for the S5 Cabriolet Prestige is exactly the same, but its residual value for an otherwise identical lease is 54%.
As you can see, the dealer is really messing with this car's lease program...which is not entirely surprising given how expensive and likely in limited supply this car is. You may want to shop around to see if you can find a different dealer that is willing to be more reasonable with the lease program. Either that or try negotiating with this dealer a little more.
