Default Owner Loyalty and New Lease Pricing for 2012

Has anyone seen information on Audi Ownwer Loyalty incentives (A6) and US lease rates post-Jan 04, 2012? That's the current expiration date for everything. I haven't been able to shake loose any information, which is holding back my order. Any help is appreciated.

There have been numerous owner loyalty deals posted in the forum, but don't know if any were related to leases. I received $3000 on my A6 the end of July.

Believe the program for the A6 currently is $2k back - which is what I received. Good till Dec 31, 2011

Keep in mind that the Audi loyalty money is less on a lease than on a purchase. While there are sometimes Audi lease promotions that may offer additional incentives, the loyalty money for a 2012 A6 lease is $1,000

Your replies are helpful. However, the loyalty incentives quoted expire on Jan 4, 2012. It is unlikely that a vehicle ordered today would be delivered before the January date. So far, I have contacted several dealers who have been unwilling/unable to commit on the amount of loyalty incentive for a delivery after that date. If anyone has any info, it would appreciated.

I would think what was in effect at the time of order would be used. Have you called Audi directly and asked?

Not too sure about the dealerships honoring incentives when orders are placed. Most fine print states you must take delivery on/before expiration date, but usually most dealers always offer some type of loyalty program anyway. When one expires they just start a new one. I hope for your case when you take delivery you end up getting an even better incentives deal. Best of luck to you on your purchase.

That's a bit worrisome and frankly I didn't realize that you have to take delivery in order to qualify for an incentive. I would have thought it was at the time of purchase. Personally my delivery is due early Dec so I don't think I'll have any issue but...if the dealer cannot deliver the car you want, why should you be penalized financially. But clearly you've raised a real concern.

I'm afraid the news back from Audi is not positive. They stated there is no way to extend the current loyalty incentive availability past Jan 4, 2012, and they have no new incentive program that they are will to commit to at the moment.

As my 2008 A6 comes off lease in two weeks, it looks like Audi will lose this sale. Disappointing.
