My Take: April numbers look the same as March numbers to me. So whatever I said in March still applies to April.

Why are Audi residuals so horrendous?
I don’t know, but I think the bank is trying to be more “realistic” with their estimates. The good thing for us is that you are less likely to be upside down by a lot should you choose to trade-in the car in the middle of your lease.
