The only loyalty perk that I know of is that they'll waive the security dep on a lease
if you have previously leased with Audi. I was lucky enough that they were having a special and waived mine anyway, but I guess that they usually don't.

Te beauty of this is we can sell it at any time with no multiple payments due like a lease.

I still don't really get how the premier purchase works...
I put 6K down on a lease, msrp 40,770. sold for 37,800. 2 yrs, 18K/yr. $468/mo. This worked for me cause I didn't want to keep the car beyond 2 years, and if I do decide to I can just buy it.

The PP is nothing more than a baloon loan.
The car is owned and titled in my name. I pay all sales tax on the complete purchase. I am a firm believer that if you lease.. never money down. you don't own it... If you have to get out early multiply your payments left including hidden interst and the residual.. that's what you owe for the car.
On the PP.. you own it so put money down..you can sell the car any time you want and all you owe is the baloon (residual) and any principal on the note.. no future interst is due like in a lease.
i know I'm either going to buy this car. at the end or I will sell it..perhaps prior to the end and bieng it's not a lease.. i will have all the freedome I want without any penalty.

I hear you on the money down point, but I was more interested in having a low monthly payment (m)
than in not putting cash down. Again, I figure I will be out of the car, no questions asked in 2 years. The two year thing was the biggest piece for me, cause as you pointed out it's nearly impossible to get out of a lease early.
