Hey– I am returning my Infiniti Q40 from lease (I can return it any time between now and 9/10), and I’m trying to figure out what to get next. I work for a leasing company that owns several dealerships, so I get really good pricing for the dealerships my company owns. Anyway, initially I decided I…

Why are you comparing to the red sport? The A4 does not come close to that in performance. So you could step down to the 3.0T and see how that compares financially.

Because the Red Sport is the only Infiniti I’d be excited about leasing. Unfortunately, I live in New Jersey, the land of high property taxes and car insurance. I just ran the insurance quote for a 3.0 Sport and it was even more than the Red Sport. The quote for the 3.0 Sport is $96 more a month th…

If you are excited by an A4, then it seems the logical choice.

What are the numbers on the leases?

People here often get lost in the value of the deal. You’re looking at leasing cars you can’t transfer so make sure you like what you get.

I’m looking at really, really good pricing. Red Sport AWD 57,550 msrp with Sensory Package: $1000 down, 10k a year, for 39 months: $449. This includes lease cash, loyalty bonus (~6200), plus an employee discount. The closest any other dealer around here could get to that was $488. For the Audi A4 …

I like the A4. I drove it twice. It’s a really good car that’s pretty quick with awesome tech and a very nice interior. Just not sure I love it. I love the Red Sport’s speed and its looks. The interior is decent, but obviously not as good as the Audi’s. It’s a big step up from my Q40, which is real…

he is comparing it because payment wise it is closer than an S4 would be. if you like the a4 build quality but want some more fun think @Deal_Hacker should go for the S4

I love the S4, but that’s definitely out of my price range. I’m waiting on a quote for an S3, which still might be out of reach, mostly due to the poor residual. The S3 is small, but I don’t have kids and don’t need a huge backseat. The backseat on that thing is hardly usable. The residuals on those…

I get it. But it is a compromise. If performance is a concern for me (and it is), I’m not considering an A4 because I wouldn’t be happy with it after a couple of months (if that). Likewise, if interior quality was a concern and I felt the Infiniti didn’t satisfy me, I’m looking elsewhere. So maybe n…
