Has anyone tried to trade in a 1.8T lease for a 3.0? I wonder what the penalty would be...

Default My wife wants me to trade in my manual for an automatic. At the very least you will pay for tax...

and liscene for the new car. I am guessing at the very least you will drop about $3000 besides the difference from the 1.8t to the 3.0

Default really depends on way too many factors to be guessed at

hopefully you are leasing through Audi Financial. At least they will not charge all the interest left on the lease, which will make your payoff less. I have no idea what BCCB is talking about on tax and stuff. Basically it works just like you have a payoff balance of the car, what you get on trade applies to that, it value is greater than payoff then you are in a great position, it value is less than payoff (more common till the last year of the lease) then you either pass or come up with money down.

Default If it's BRAND NEW figure on a 20%+ depreciation for the 1.8T thats about wholesale, then call AFS

and get your buyout...whats the difference?
Now get the lease price on a 3.0..add or subtract that difference to the capitalized cost..

Yah, it's gonna costa you...

Better off chipping and replacing a turbo (if needed) than going to 3.0
