Hi wanted some options here.
I currently own an Audi that would like to trade in. My payoff quote is 45k
If I decide to trade in the car, Audi FS has a different payoff quote that is higher than my payoff quote( I don’t know this for fact, gotta call them and figure it out tomorrow)
Interestingly enough when I traded in my previous Audi, the dealer payoff quote and my payoff was the same.
This might have something to do with the 90 day maturity date. If you have more than 90 days before the end of the lease, the amount for dealer and me might be the same, however, within the 90 days, dealer payoff is higher than mine.
This has nothing to do with taxes etc.
if anyone here has traded in an Audi to a dealer prior to the last 90 day of the lease please let me know if the payoff was different for dealer as opposed to the leasee
Audi FS won’t tell you what the dealer payoff is. The dealership has to call in with your info and then Audi faxes the dealer quote to them. From my experience, the dealer payoff includes a fee of around $700-$800 at a non-Audi dealership. This was (barely) outside the 90 day window.
