We don't recommend making a cap cost reduction .... if the car is stolen or totaled, you are out that money. $2900 works out to about $80-81/mo on the payment.
You should be able to negotiate a better selling price, however ... $500 off isn't all that much.
With the numbers you've provided, using the base MF and $0 cap cost reduction (but including the $1000 loyalty), I get a pre-tax payment of $664.11/mo
I'm fairly new to leasing still. So the most I should put down is $2,900? I was trying to lower my monthly payments but I guess that's how I got screwed last round. How does the Cap Cost Reduction work?

Thanks everyone!
Cap cost reduction is the same as a down payment - except that in a lease, if the car is stolen or totaled, you would lose the money.
Now it's all making sense. Now the dealers are saying Audi sets the MF rates. One asked who's providing the info. If it's from websites, "they don't understand how things work."

The numbers we give are the Audi numbers...
AFS does set the money factor... but, Audi dealers are permitted to mark-up that number for extra profit. And, many of them do.. Some of them will lie about it, and call you an idiot for questioning them..
Calculating a lease is very simple... I can do it on a napkin with a pencil.
Thank you so much for all the info. It really empowers us, the consumers. I got really screwed on my first lease. The same dealer is still playing games with me.
Can you explain how Base MF of 0.00134 differs from numbers I get from dealers? Does Base MF apply to all or certain trims where dealers pick and choose mark ups?

Might be time to start working with a different Audi dealer...
The "base" MF is the lowest MF set by Audi Financial Services. The base MF can vary by trim or engine choice for the Q5.
I am being offered a 2015 q5 premium plus in Virginia with technology package. Here is the breakdown
36 m/12k msrp 47320 and negotiated 44320 mf .00134 and residual is 56.6% i will pay taxes up front and no down payment
when I calculate payments it comes up to $582. They keep telling me $634
i ask for any other fees that are not transparent and they told me that they are adding taxes in the depreciation calculation. Why would they do that if I am already paying taxes.
Looking for what to expect as good numbers for a 2015 Q5 3.0T Premium Plus with technology package and B&O audio. MSRP is at $51,555 I think it was.
Would be for a 36 or 42 month lease at 10K/yr. or better yet a balloon pseudo-lease since in IL-if going that route more money down isn't at risk is it as with a lease, correct? Thank you.

Does VA calculate taxes up front or on the monthly payment? Where is the acquisition fee?
Is it possible to lease a version of the Q5 with the 2.0 engine and with the driver assistance package? Anybody has this package and can share their lease details pls?

Looking at a Q5 for my wife for the first time and still learning the Audi lingo (my apologies if I use the wrong phrase).
Can anyone provide me the money factor and residuals for a Q5 3.0T Premium Plus for 36 months and 15k/year lease?
Does Audi offer any incentives if you have a Lexus or BMW in the household (wife is rolling out of a Lexus)?
Thanks
.00129 and 56%.

Thanks for the information. I looked at the incentives page and didn't see anything but yesterday the Audi dealer I met at a car show said that they have a program.

I am looking for the residual and money factor for a 2015 Q5 2.0T Premium Plus based on 36 months/10k per. Prior month was 57% / .00134 without AudiCare. Has it changed?
I know the residual will increase by 1% with AudiCare. Do you have the list and invoice (if applicable)?

Hi, I am looking to lease a 2015 Q5 TDI, 36mo, 12K/yr. in Colorado. What are the MF and residual value? Many thanks.
Also, being new to this forum, is it possible to find out the source of your data? Is it user reported or does it come from the manufacturer's financial services arm?
Final question, I am noticing that there are substantial differences in promo lease offers between regions, comparing offers in Chicago and Colorado, for example. Do these differences account for different lease structures and requirements between states?

Chicago promotions are often generous (for any make) to counteract the onerous lease taxes, in Illinois (and Chicago, in particular).
Hi, thanks in advance for this support. Can I get MF and Residual for 2015 Q5 3.0T Premium Plus/tech package with Audicare? Looking for a 36mon 10k miles. I'm in Portland Oregon
Also, for the residual %...is that the percent of the MSRP? Here is the deal I was emailed from the dealership:
It seems to me that the rebate and discount would be considered as a down payment, but please correct me if I'm wrong. As you can see, they are asking for an additional $1000 for the down.
Should I be looking at anything in particular with this deal? I know MF is important, but I wonder if the discount is fair and if the additional down of $1k is a bad deal.

.00129 MF and 60% for 36/10 w/AudiCare. (residual is always a percentage of MSRP)
I'd guess that the "Down: $1000" is your amount due at signing.... so, really, no downpayment at all, as that is 1st payment and registration.
If I add $695 for an acquisition fee and $860 for AudiCare to the $48,999, I get a payment of $648/mo. Does Oregon have a sales tax? If not, then you can see they have marked up a lot of numbers.... Plus, the $1706 discount isn't anything to write home about either.. Your discount should be 5-6%, at least.... ($3000 or so....)
Without any tax, your payment should be around $610-$620 or so..
