I am not exactly sure, they did not send me the exact numbers. I think the final sale price a bit and the only think left is the MF. So I am guessing that
Don’t guess. Find out.

This. Only $27 a month but that’s ~$1,000 in total over 3 years and roughly 1% less discount you’re getting most likely
It may be as simple as the lease programs changed for January and got worse, in which case it is what it is. Could be the dealer decided they didn’t want to discount ad much, in which case time to find someone who will.

Take it and run!
What they told me is that they got mixed up with the numbers since I was transferred from one agent to another. Thats their explanation 
I am still waiting for the final numbers but it’s basically one 1% less discount. The sales agent is pushing me to sign as soon as possible.

I can’t imagine why.
I’d tell them to pound sand in principle alone.

These are the final numbers.
Selling price = $56,203 (8% of MSRP)
Drive off = $3500 (includes tax, registration, government and dealer fees)
Monthly payment = $608/month for the rest 35 months at 10k miles.
I tried with other local dealers, but they were telling me that they can’t even match these numbers. They quoted me at $700 with same drive off amount.
In MN, there are only 3 dealerships (2 owned by the same group and share the same inventory) within 300 miles radius. I did everything I can, I left no stone unturned up, I even spoked with the general manager and this the best numbers I was able to get.
Do you guys think this is good enough? I would appreciate your feedback. Thanks
Have you price compared shipping one in?
I have not. But shipping one will cost me a minimum of $700, if not more. Its added cost. I might not end saving much money. Plus i am currently leasing an A4. So this deal includes a lease pull ahead.
Yes. You did the best you could given constraints such as local market competitiveness and pulling ahead the A4.

MN tax is added to the lease monthly, it is not paid up front.
The Minnesota Dept of Revenue states that it is paid up-front.
“Motor vehicle leases are subject to the Minnesota general rate sales tax and any local sales taxes that apply. Sales tax is collected on the total up-front lease price . . .”
I have a MN current lease started in 2019 and it is paid monthly. Maybe the rules changed in 2020?
Is it paid to MN monthly or was it paid up front to the bank and rolled in to your monthly payment like is common in NY, etc?

MN tax are paid up front on the lease portion. You can chose to roll that into your monthly payments.
