I live in a state (TX) where sales tax is charged up front on the sale price minus any trade-in. My question is this: If I get all or part of the trade-in equity back as cash, is the taxable value still the same, i.e., net of the trade value? Thx
Not sure - you should reach out to the TX Department of Revenue for a definitive answer.
Thank you. I have another dilemma. I sent the dealer a spreadsheet with the sale price I want along with complete lease calculation. Deal is as follows:
MSRP: $60,700 Sale Price: $56,210 Term: 36/12K MF/RF: .00159/60 Out of Pocket: TTL, doc fee, acq fee, tax TBD based on my query above, first month payment waived by AFS promo, rest of trade-in equity as cash back Payment: $697
Dealer says when he plugs in the numbers into his system the payment comes up to $755. I can show him any number of calculators, but how do I counter his claim?
Thx
Ask him what MF they are using; could be marked up, despite what your spreadsheet says
General question, when we are doing MSDs, I am being told by one dealership that the first deposit doesn't count toward the rate reduction in the MF. Is this correct? So for example, if I put in the maximum of 10 (that is the maximum right?), only 9 of the MSDs will reduce the MF.

Confirm with other dealerships to see if you get a consistent story. We thought all 10 counted towards MF reduction.

The initial security deposit is waived for most customers with good credit. I agree with 9 MSDs X .00005 each reduction, though
I've finally found a car I like, and I'm going to to the dealer today...
Just to confirm (I'm in MI, if that matters):
2018 Audi S4, 36mo./10k is .00124 and 61% (for September)
Also, I've seen it mentioned that there's a reduction in MF if you do autopay for your lease through Audi Financial Services...is that true??? Does that apply for any model?
Lastly, any conquest or loyalty incentives, I currently drive a BMW.
THANK YOU, YOU ARE A LIFESAVER...if it wasn't for this forum, dealers would forever retain the upper hand in negotiations!!!! I can't tell you how many quotes I've gotten, even with my perfect credit, with dramatically inflated money factors...

Those numbers are correct. $1000 marketing allowance (Audi-to-dealer cash) No info on an autopay reduction. No conquest incentive
Can I get the October numbers for a S4 Premium Plus, Northern California, 36/10k? Also looking for any incentives available. Dealer is quoting .00203 MF, which looks like it might be marked up considerably.

Thanks for your help in my other thread about the Infinti Q50 Red Sport. I did also really like the Audi S4, but I think it's out of my range.
Would you be able to provide the residual and money factor for a 39-month 10K mile lease in the Philly, PA area?
Also - I didn't follow what you were saying a few posts up about the money factor. Can you explain that again if you don't mind?

MSDs allow you to 'buy down' the MF with security deposits - each deposit is the amount of the monthly payment, rounded up to the next highest $50.
You get that money back at the end of the lease.
