$5,000 drive off? That’s insane. That’s effectively $650 a month. Good luck should the car get totaled like the guy who has been dealing with his Q5 that was totaled after a whole week.
I’ve reached out to many dealers in the northeast, this is not such a bad deal…
People here love saying that your deal is the worst, but it’s just not true in this case - 11% discount is great, though I do agree with @AP919 that you’d do well to get rid of the DAS.
Similarly, it’s still $650 a month for a $47,000 Audi, which sucks even for Audi.
I know the mileage is lower on this one, but the MF is lower, and it’s just about the same price vehicle, but it’s still both a lower payment and significantly less DAS.
Agreed, plus your residual was 7% higher, which doesn’t hurt! Either way, OP appears to be in the tri-state area, where there are a gazillion Audis on the road and almost as many dealerships, so he could still get a much better deal, save for the awful residual.
I think it’s a bad deal because of the 5K down. I did a sign and drive with a 2.0 Q7 and 65K MSRP. Tax in and Audi care I’m at $805 a month for 36 months and 10K miles.
Update: I was able to do MSD instead of down payment. Doesn’t really change much of the numbers but at least i get that back. Thanks for the advice. I never heard of that before (I’m pretty new at this). I asked for 15% off assuming he would counter with a little lower like 14 or 13 but didn’t budge. I’m gonna sit on it for a while. Shop around and see what I can get.
