Hello guys -
Longtime reader and need advice. I’m currently returning my Audi lease and this is the deal they’re offering me. This is trash, right? Any suggestions?
Thank you!

Yes, it is trash. $1799 for Audicare is crazy high. What is the $3K outstanding balance?
The $3k is outstanding balance on my lease that I would be turning in early.
Yikes, what kind of terms do you have on a 2018 Q5 that you would be turning in early in October 2024?

Why are you returning your lease early?

I’m returning a 2021 lease, the 2018 was a previous lease.
They sent me an offer to return early and then try to roll in $3k LOL.
If I were in your shoes, I would keep driving your current lease. Unless, you receive an offer directly from Audi (and not from the dealership) for a pull ahead, I would walk away from this deal.
Even if you were otherwise getting a great deal on the new Q5 there is no reason to roll in $3k of negative equity just to get out of your lease a few months early.
Agreed! Besides the Audi Care and negative equity, do the numbers make sense?
Agreed and that’s the plan.
Genuine question, what do you mean by that (since you’ve said that the deal is trash)?
I think it would make sense to try to gather data and use the calculator to create a target deal.
Will do, working on that now. Thanks for your help!!
IMO a target deal under today’s RV/MF is a waste of time if you have an unfinished lease with negative equity.
Finish your lease, pick the best vehicle to target at that time (which may not be a Q5) and then proceed.
