Default Lease price w/ trade-in?

I'm planning an 2011 build, but the dealership "can't" give me a price nor round about price.

So if anyone traded in for a lease, can i get details
Trade-in price, price on S4, 36mo lease/miles (whatever) .. ect

Just want to get an idea of payment, thanks!

Never a good idea to do a trade-in on a leased vehicle. You are essentially giving the leasing company a good chunk of the traded car's value for free. The value of the trade is applied to the vehicle purchase price. So when you return the car after 3 years, the trade-in's value the leasing company gets to pocket.

So say the purchase price is $50k, and your trade is worth $15k. The leased amount will be $35k. The trade's value is NOT applied to your monthly payments directly.

My advice is to sell it privately and keep that money in the bank to put towards your monthly payments.

If you give me the exact purchase price I can give you a rough calculation of your payment. You are most likely looking at a range of $700-900 a month on a 36mo lease (generally speaking).
