Default S4 quote

I was just quoted 865/month for 3 year lease (12k miles) on a 2005.5 S4 w/ Nav, Sirius, Premium, Carbon Fiber Trim... Does that seem steep to anyone?

Default Check out swapalease.com.

You might find one cheaper and/or the same payment but with no money down, just a $400-500 lease transfer fee.

Default Here are the lease rates this month...

2005.5 Audi Sedan S4 quattro

24 mo/15k mi - 63% residual â€" Money Factor .00165 Base Rate
36 mo/15k mi - 52% residual â€" Money Factor .00165 Base Rate
48 mo/15k mi - 42% residual â€" Money Factor .00215 Base Rate
60 mo/15k mi - 35% residual â€" Money Factor .00410 Base Rate

The money factor dropped a bit but so did the residual. Use www.leaseguide.com that has always helped me out when I think I'm getting screwed!

Default Re: S4 quote

Quoted same car for 820+tax. Still too high? And if so, what is reasonable?

Default They're all saying its high, but honestly I have not seen a lower number

posted on here for a B7 lease. A lot of people picked up their B6S4 on a AoA subsidized lease plan, which put their leases in the 600-700 range. Unfortnetly they are not offering that program right now. You haven't listed your details so its really hard to tell, but if you're comfortable with the payments go for it.

Thanks! Right now I am at 799/month. I'm going to see if anyone can beat.

Default The best way to know if you can do better is.

Go onto autotrader.com and search NEW cars. Find 2 or 3 in a 75-100 mile radius that are similar in MSRP. Even better, if it would be a car that you would actually buy at the right price. None the less, get lease quotes with similar parameters from the dealers. If they are not better than what your original quote was, tell them the numbers from that quote and see if they will beat it. Play the one against the other. Take the one who gave you the higher price and tell him what the lower dealer quoted. If he beats that, go back to the other dealer and see if he will beat that. Finally, once you get the best quote over the phone. Take that back to the original dealer to beat or ar least match. Let each dealer know that you plan to lease within a week. This is how I did it, but I never went back to the original dealer because he was completely out of line and he didn't have the color I wanted. I negotiated Everything over the phone, took 2 days. BTW, you will usually do better negotiating for a car that is actually on the dealers lot. Also will do better if the dealer has multiple units on the lot. This definitely works.

I'm not sure that you can swap an AoA lease?
