noooo, shoot for 8-9% off of the $53,755 sticker price, then after that they should add in all the incentives…just a quick break down…ideally your pre-incentive price should be around $49,454 (8% off) then with incentives taken off come down to $42,732.6 before all of those little add ons

Thank you!!! There is an art to this for sure! My head is exploding.
I disagree- it should be off the $51505 since that’s actually what is listed on the Maroney. Audi has been giving $1500 Convenience Package and $750 Convenience Plus Credits and that price is what is considered the “MRSP”. https://www.ipacket.info/WA1BNAFY0L2063258#MSRP
That’s the price that will used to calculate the RV.
Take a look for buy rate MF, current incentives: https://forums.edmunds.com/discussion/57291/audi/q5/2020-audi-q5-lease-deals-and-prices/p7

My bad I was not aware of those credits off of the MSRP of the vehicle.

And i apologize-i didn’t know how to put that on. I should’ve screen shot the invoice. So the rebates and discounts of $6722 is good then? Off off the $51,505( after the 2 credits) And paying 640/month for 36/10k/no money down is a good deal then. Again i try to put into calculator and i come up whacky.
Maybe just me, but Resistall (no idea what this is) and Tint totaling $1149? I would take both of those off the deal.
If you want to do the tint, go to a reputable tint shop in your area. Most likely, it will be a better quality job and probably cheaper than that.

Thanks. If i can get those 2 things off then good deal? I believe he is doing a trade. It seems the lighter interior i want is hard to come by…
It is better, but I wouldn’t sell yourself on the rarity of a lighter interior
Have you checked AutoTrader or Audi’s Inventory Website? Plug in the packages/specs and it will show you the vehicles matching in your area. For these to be useful, I would just start at exterior and interior color and see what is pulled up.

I will do that now. Thanks.
Hi there, I took a stab at a calculator work up based on your details and what I assume GA taxes are?
Couple of comments - the sales price is $51k, the credits are already baked in as @calbear correctly noted . A Q5 deal really only makes sense if you can get as close to 15% off as possible. With the add ons included and incentives, you are at 10%. Personally, I don’t care for dealers who play games like showing a bigger discount and then clawing it back with useless junk. I would walk away but if you really want this unit, the best you can do is push for more discount to negate those charges.

I concur- I would walk from this deal. Definitely, ditch the pure profit reinstall + tint.
Target discussions for 20% (super-aggressive), but very unlikely at this time of the year and lack of big incentives/rebates vs stealerships ~ 10% offer and then see if you can meet in the middle ~ 15%.
The OP may want to consider hiring a broker to get a better deal.

Plus two… Maybe it was the dealer that was telling OP that the interior color has wanted was rare?
For reference: I didn’t say it was a good deal, just better without all of the markups.

Got it. I might walk away. Before I do-he took off the resistall and dropped the tint to $200. Payments would be $613. Thoughts?
Although your deal is for 2020, to give you an idea of what has been possible (yes, 2019 and in November, but the Edmunds base MF/RV/incentives and current deals on 2020 you should be doing better): Signed 2019 Audi Q5 Premium Plus 36/10 $2000 DAS, $500 month - #6 by MashBoss
20% off would be $10301.
15%= $7725.75
Consider looking out of state/broker.

That’s what I might need to do-broker. I think for this first time leasing I might be a little to ‘easy’ if you will. I really appreciate your and everyone’s knowledge and time!

I would still walk. There’s no reason for the markup, even at how little they are trying to sell you.
Were you able to find some other cars through inventory?

I’m rethinking all this and taking a break. Lol. I am going to keep reading and learning though.
Think about it this way: it is better to wait and get the deal you want than get burned on a deal that you are stuck with for at least 2-3 years!

If you are not in a rush, you should try waiting it out for the Summer of Audi event. That is typically when incentives are at their best.
