Default Has anyone looked into Audi's Premier lease?

I was just at the Audi site, and looked over their financing section. Is anyone leasing their Audi? If so what kind of additional expenses should I expect?

This is what i'm going to go for when I get my TT. Lets me keep the payments low AND purchase the car instead of leasing it. My payments would only be 265 a month/48 months.

I just have to save up a downpayment (10-11k) because I want to use the money from selling my current car for the final payment.

Hopefully I should have my TT within a year... year and a half (man thats a long time!!! )

Default It's usually preferable to a lease since the car is titled in your name and there's no early ...

termination fee. You can sell it whenever you want. The downside is that the interest rate is higher than the market rate for a loan from your bank or credit union. The only reason to use it would be if you couldn't afford the car with cash or a regular loan (IMHO, of course).

I did until I realized how much more expensive it really is.

Default What Increases should I expect?

Aside from the increased interest rate(I hear it should be +1% or so) what else should I expect to be higher? Was the payoff amount you ran into, too much? Thanks for your help!

Default here is what I am looking at>>>

I contacted my dealer last week... Interest rate for premium purchase was at 8.5% and droping. But with the 8.5 I was looking at a 11k down payment, 265/month for 48 months, and a final payment of 15,300 for a total of a bit over 39000. This is for a 225 coupe with premium package.

I can do that easy... I just need to come up with the 11k for downpayment (sale of current car goes into savings for final payment)
