In my limited opinion, no. That’s not enough off MSRP. Find out the invoice price and negotiate off of that. Dealers don’t even pay invoice for their cars usually. BMWs lease better than Audis and you probably already know that but $580 is really steep for an A4.
With the $1000 incentive, it’s right there on the invoice.
I find its pretty hard to ask for more than that, at least in my area. It’s a hot car any it sells fast, especially the trim that I want.
What would be your strategy on these kind of cars? Do you simply point out that they are making profit even at the invoice price? But I can’t seem to find the real price they would pay for the car.
Or do you just go for a different trim/car?
I was looking at the Audi A4 and the BMW 3 series and ended up settling with BMW last week because the Audi leases (especially prestige) were really bad… partially because of the residuals.
