Sounds alright. I don't know how your taxes work in CA.

What is the cap cost? (ie: what is the bottom line that they are financing?)

Sounds like you're paying MSRP! Not a good deal! Shoud be around $370

I'm paying $200 over invoice, so I'm a little confused why it's a bad deal.

Further explanation would be great.

Thanks.

Default Maybe, but they sure jacked up your money factor then!

What are the terms of this lease?

- cap cost
- money factor
- residual value
- MSRP
- tax percentage

I used 0.0008 money factor with 32,110 MSRP, 50% residual value and 8% tax. With these numbers the only way to get a $400 payment is if you pay MSRP for the car....

He could have less than perfect credit, which influences his money factor enough for the $30 increase in payment.

What dealership are you going to? I'm in the LA area and about to pull the trigger on one, also.

Curious how your credit is... shhh... I won't tell anyone, and how you have been handled by your dealership?

Default pulled the trigger, and bought...

a Silver A4, 1.8 quattro manual. Premium, Sport, Bose, Xenon. They waived first month payment/down/security, and I'm paying a few pennies under $397/month with tax for 48/10K. I'll only be making 47 payments.

I may have been able to get the car for about $10-15 less a month, but I was happy with the deal.

Love the car...talk to Scott Kaufman @ Beverly Hills.

Default Congrats! As long as you're happy, that's all that matters!

Same setup as mine, except mine is an Avant and Atlas instead of Silver. What color interior?

At any rate, you're going to love your car for sure! Enjoy!
