2019 Audi S5 Coupe Premium Plus. Good deal?

[jananth1]

yea, but the residual is lower on prestige compared to p+, so good deals are harder

[StingerTT]

You can probably option a P+ close to a Prestige and benefit from a better RV. You won’t get all the Prestige treatments (no HUD?), but most of it on the S5.

Also, near 1100+ /mo for a coupe S5? Insane to me. This is a terrible deal.

S4’s are going for high 600’s now with limited negotiation. Are you married to the 2-door? The S4 with black optics is a sharp looker.

Let me check the S4"s then. Are you talking about S4 premium plus or prestige?

[StingerTT]

P+ with Audi. The RV is higher than Prestige and MSRP is generally lower. You can find a well-optioned S4 P+ with most of the things a Prestige has sans some of the gimmicky stuff.

Paying for Audicare also jacks up the RV a point. Throw MSD’s down and you’ll get a lower money factor. All those things will contribute to saving you money and getting the most out of the deal.

This was in NJ, back in January:

2019 Audi S4 Premium Plus

First time posting, great forum, awesome sharing, thank you all! I’ve been shopping around for a 2019 Audi S4 Premium Plus in NJ. I wanted S sport package, but the one this dealer has right now also comes with nice stereo sets, puddle light, and 19 inch summer tire (which ironically I’ll need to replace with winter ones). It does not come with Audi care though. Thoughts on this deal? MSRP: 61695 Sale price: 55500 Acquisition: 895 All kinds of tax: 1638.87 DMV: 304.5 Rebate: 1500 Residual…

Programs may be different, but just to gauge what’s possible with a little bit of negotiation.

Thank you. Any infos on RS5? Are they even worst

[StingerTT]

They are worse. Going between 1100 and 1500 depending on dealer.

Best deal I saw was in NY at 1100 with 5k down. The lease offers are absolutely atrocious.

Don’t take my word for it though; get quotes!

[joeyz10]

That"s what my salesman told me yesterday. Expect a comma! I am having a hard time justifying Aude leases as I lease a 2018 Cayman 718 last year for 5k and 550 a month for 24 moths with 5 k a year to drive.

[StingerTT]

I hear ya. The money factors and RV is pretty bad.

You can get a prestige for around $799/month with $3k DAS at Palo Alto Audi and that already beats your quote even though it’s not the best deal. I know because I signed for a sportback in September.

I’m sure you can aim for mid 700s with minimal drive off and MSDs. I didn’t use MSDs.

People here will tell you go with premium plus to save money but I really enjoy prestige with heads up display and the drive assist package is phenomenal (way better at “self turning” on highway 280 than I expected). Go with the prestige if you can afford it and it’s worth the extra $$ to you!

[joeyz10]

Thank you for your info. I will try Palo alto tomorrow.

I worked with a sales guy named Hamid, great guy! He matched the offer (actually beat by $1) for a higher MSRP and better color car than what Stevens Creek Audi offered me. Back in September 2018, there were only 3-4 Black/Black S5 Prestige SB w/ carbon fiber so my negotiation powers were limited.
