Hi all - first post here. I just bought a new S5 cab about 2 weeks ago. I was able to get one that was already on the way to the states with the color/options I wanted (Black/black, navi, B&O, Carbon Fiber and Tri-spokes). It will be coming in at the end of the month. The dealer said if I wanted a custom order (I didn't want the tri-spokes or CF) it would be 90 days or more to get the car.

Paid about $1800 under MSRP (which is around $2k over invoice). Considering this dealer had the only S5 cab in the state (to test drive and use as a trading chip for mine), I was lucky to get anything off sticker.

If I had the option of getting a 2010 for 5k or so cheaper, and getting it today vs. 3-4 months, I would be taking the 2010...

Paid $3500 under MSRP on a 2011 ordered unit to my spec's. This was a $500,00 deal from what I was told.

^what was msrp? 3500 is a lot to take off. did you have owner loyalty?

PARealtor

according to audi there is no owner loyalty cash available on S5's

No Audi loyalty, List was 64,225 plus Supercharger badges and Oil dip stick
Selling price $60,693.00

Venture guard done after for $275.00

The dealer was excellent and the car was sent out for detailing. I have never gotten a new car as detailed and clean as this.An outside service did the detailing and it was flawless. I have to give the dealer a 10 for effort.

half a percent over invoice. how'd the financing go?

According to my dealer, there was $1000 of Audi Loyalty available (unfortunately we had already gotten rid of the wife's A4).

Wreck - sounds like you got a great deal...I probably could've haggled more were I ordering one, but since they were going to swap one for me that was coming in, they weren't going to move very much...and because that meant I could get it 2 months sooner, I was ok with this.

The 30th can't come soon enough...will post pics when I get it.

Paid Cash, no financing. I believe in writing a check for everything. I hate paying interest.
The best part ordered 7/4 delivered first week in Sept.

Future Audi owner?

Thanks for the thoughts, everyone. The dealer came down another $1,000 on the 2010 but I think we're going to go the special order route. Hey, wreck, was this a Maryland dealer you worked with? We are also in MD (Howard County) and willing to travel a little to get a deal. Are you comfortable telling me the name of the dealership?

P.S. I'm with you on cutting a check for the purchase - unless I can get zero percent financing.

Thanks!
