Have you price compared shipping one in?

23

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.

25

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.

28

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.
