2013 Audi Lease Rates – February 2013

No significant changes this month for Audi leases. There were very slight updates to MFs but that should not change your payments much, if any. $1000 Loyalty and Conquest cash is available on select models such as the A4.

2013 Audi Lease Rates – January 2013

UPDATE: Audi has revised their lease program. Please see below. As far as I can tell. Some residuals have dropped along with the MF. Others only got a MF reduction. Nothing too drastic, but worth noting.

Slight drops in MF and residual but most a good numbers of models stayed the same. Not seeing any cash incentives showing on Edmunds, but I think the financing rates looks quite strong.
One thing still baffles me though…Audis seem to sell well, but surprisingly, even Acura managed to outsell Audi last year. Go figure.

2013 Audi Lease Rates – December 2012

Excepted RES & MF drops this month. There is loyalty cash available and 1.9%-2.9% financing. Audi does go the extra mile for their existing owners, so if you have an Audi now, you will qualify for some decent chunk of change. Remember, the luxury sales crown is still up for grabs this year and BMW, MB and Audi are probably going to try hard to earn your business. Negotiate accordingly.

Bank Acquisition Fees. What to Expect.

Here is a partial list of bank acquisition fees. If you have leased with a brand or bank that’s not listed here, please share with the rest of us. Fees marked with a (*) are unconfirmed.

UPDATE (12/10/2012) – Had a very interesting conversation with the Honda finance guy the other day regarding bank acquisition fees. My original understanding of bank fees was that they served as two things: 1) loan processing 2) GAP coverage (for most banks). However, there is another little known reason why the amount is so high…apparently, the bank (which is a separate entity from the manufacturer) uses portions of that fee to pay for an multi-million dollar umbrella policy for their leased vehicles in case the lessee damages property or kills someone. As you know, we live in a very “sue-friend” country and when the plaintiff can’t get money from the defendant, we all know who they sue next.

Acura – $595
Audi – $695
BMW – $725
Buick – $795
Chevrolet – $795
Ford– $595
Honda – $595
Hyundai – $595
Infiniti $595 $700
Jeep $795 (Ally)
Kia $595
Lexus – $695
Lincoln– $595
Mazda – $595 (Chase)
Mercedes-Benz – $795
Nissan – $595
Porsche – $895
Range Rover – $795
Subaru – $595
Toyota – $650
Volkswagen – $595
Volvo – $695

2012-13 Audi Lease Rates – September 2012

Audi has dropped the residual and money factor this month (an expected move). I anticipate things to remain the same in October, then another drop in Nov/Dec, just in time for the holidays. Audi is offering loyalty cash bonuses that are applicable to leases, so don’t sleep on those. Overall, not a huge difference from last month (in terms of payments). The optimist in me, expects better numbers in Nov/Dec.

2012-2013 Audi Lease Rates – August 2012

AFS made an interesting adjustment on the 2012 Q5 this month. They kept the MF the same and bumped the residual 2% higher! That means cheaper payments in my book. Funny stuff. Other than that, it seems the 2013s remained the same. Expect numbers to be about the same as last month. Incentives are the same and the special 2% financing for up to 60 months on the A4 is still the same.

2012-13 Audi Lease Rates – July 2012

Summer of Audi is looking better with some drops in money factor. Residual changed on some models, but for more mainstream ones like the A4, the residual remains the same. Looking over TrueCar sales data from last month, it looks like invoice + incentives ($1000 loyalty) is attainable. If you aren’t an existing Audi customer, hovering around invoice or slightly below that should be your max sale price.
