Honestly, how much are you driving right now that it matters whether you hate the car or not?

22

dont get me wrong the A3 is a nice vehicle, but i bought it for my wife originally. i just didnt think a loaded A3 was going to depreciate as much as it did. I traded in a hyundai for more than they want to give me for this audi, and the hyundai was 6 years old. I dont mind the unintentional roughness- i just thought i would post to see what all the regulars think. i just know i will have to unload this car sooner or later because it is not a joy to drive for me and i travel about 100 miles a day roundtrip to work.

100 miles a day roundtrip 6 days a week

24

its temp for right now because of the corona.but normally 55 miles a day. i want something i can enjoy to drive-otherwise I would have bought an electric car

25

31000 miles a year? Donā€™t lease or we are going to see you back here in 3 years with $15k in overmileage charges

I donā€™t know what your payment is on the A3, but if you paid the same $2k and $742/mo toward the A3, you could be in the black in less than a year. Thatā€™s what Iā€™d do, personally. Ok now thatā€™s the 3rd time, in case anyoneā€™s counting.

payment is 627 a month. and you are right. i have heard you all 3 times-i just thought it was nuts that they discounted an S5 that much.

30

lol but if I lease the car i like, then I can buy it outā€¦lol

31

In the vast majority of times that ends up throwing even more money down the drain.

32

It sounds like they didnā€™t. They just super low balled you on your trade in to make the discount look better.

33

I didnt go any further with the sales manager because of the low ball offer on the A3-which is in excellent shape. If i was serious I would have gone back and forth all day until I got tired and walked.

34

Thank you everyone-much appreciated and no i am not going to touch this lease.

The only way out is to wait and/or pay off more of your loan.

Otherwise youā€™re just repeating the same mistakes over and over again.
