Audi S4 Lease Questions
jauri7788 Posts: 5Thanks for your quick reply!
I thought it was too high as well. How much should it be even with the negative equity? I ran the Edmunds lease calculator even with the numbers the dealer gave me and it was like $100 lower than his number. When I confronted him, he kept telling me that there are upfront costs of $2065, acquisition fees, title and tag fees and etc. Is this all a dealership [non-permissible content removed]? -
isles1 Posts: 110First negotiate the sales price as mentioned above based on invoice.
Then move to why the money factor is higher than the "buy rate" money factor.
$695 is the acquisition fee on all Audi leases. You'll have to ask the dealer to break down the rest of the $2065 of fees. "Documents fees" and "dealer prep fees" are BS and you should not pay them. Title fees and DMV fees are legit, of course.
You'll have to add the negative equity into a lease calculator as an additional cost. This calculator usually comes within $10 of the dealer figures: http://www.leaseguide.com/calc.htm -

isles1 Posts: 110Residual is based off of MSRP...that is to the lessee's (your) advantage.
Negotiate the sales price with your dealer WITHOUT factoring in the Audi Loyalty incentive. The incentive will be treated as a $1K cap cost reduction, which you will pay sales tax on. So you are aiming for $500 over invoice (or less if you can haggle well) BEFORE the loyalty incentive. This incentive is not a cost to the dealer; it is an Audi of America "subsidy", so do not let the dealer skew the numbers on you.
The lease calculator I linked you to above handles all the correct calculations for you, including sales tax in the payment. -
CarMan@Edmunds Posts: 38,515Hi quattrorings. Wow, there's been a lot of posts about leasing the S4 lately.
Audi's current lease program is scheduled to run through April 2nd. It's difficult to say what will happen to its program after that. I don't know what the cutoff for Audi Financial Services' top credit tier is off of the top of my head, but I suspect that it's in the 700's...say 720 or so.

isles1 Posts: 110Just going off the past few years, I would not expect the MF to get any better after in April when the current program expires. The residuals will probably move up a few points with the new model year, along with higher MFs.
If you wait until April, you may find that dealers have no more allocations for MY2013 order, and will be in the position to order a MY2014 or take a MY2013 from stock. The MF also tends to jump when the new model year comes out, and your bargaining power drops with an increase in demand for the new model year, together with an increase in buyers as most locales move higher temps and nicer weather (car buying season).
So I'd lock in the current program by placing an order on of before April 2. If for some chance the programs are better when you take delivery, you may avail yourself of those programs instead.
I locked in Nov. programs for P+ 36 months (MF .00105, 56%) but will get the benefit of the current program (MF .00068, 55%). The current program saves me about $20 a month, or about $700 over the lease term. Not bad. -

daveg35 Posts: 7Sorry if this has already been posted but I'm picking up my custom ordered S4 this week and want to make sure I have the most current lease details. on a Premium Plus, 36 mo lease, 15k/yr. with Audi Care. What should the money factor and residual values be? When I order the vehicle in Nov the RES was 54% - not sure about the MF. Want to make sure I am not getting ripped off before I go in and sign the lease so if you could give me the latest #s ASAP I sure would appreciate it.

daveg35 Posts: 7My dealer just informed me that they alway mark up their money facors by .0003 and provide a higher discount to make up for the difference. Does that make sense?
"We mark up all our interest rates and money factors as do all financial institutions such as banks, mortgage companies and car dealerships. The residual is 54% but the money factor is .00098. We mark it up .0003 to all
Deals. We did discount this deal $2470 not $1670 as it was because of the money factor mark up." -
azax456 Posts: 18Hello all! I have been long lurking and finally decided on an S4 over a BMW 535i today. Spent some time at the dealer and wanted to share this deal with everyone. What do you guy think?
2013 S4 Black/Black, Key, B&O, Nappa Leather, 19" wheels, carbon fiber inserts and Supercharged badges.
Selling price: $54,500
MF: .00038 (6 MSD's buying down from .00068 buy rate)
299 tint/880 Audi Care/695 aquisition/489 Doc fee - all rolled in
~800 registration and first month due at signing
Payment: $662 plus tax (8.8%) for a total of $720/month.
Thoughts? Thanks guys! -
isles1 Posts: 110All looks good except the $489 doc fee. Cross it out...the dealer is padding the deal with it, negating a good portion of your MF buy down. Part of the doc fee might be the title fee, which is legit...you have to ask the dealer break it out for you.
You could probably get AudiCare for $30-$50 less, but that is really splitting hairs.
Most people advise against letting the dealer do tint. Price for tint seems fair, but that all depends on the brand of tint and what windows you are tinting. -
isles1 Posts: 110Yes, it looks like you are within a few hundred of invoice re: selling price. I cannot duplicate your MSRP and listed option here on Edmunds to get exact invoice.
As long as you are okay adding $489 to the amount over invoice, then the deal is certainly fair. I really do not see how it can hurt to object to the doc fees, especially if you are in an area with several dealers. The car is on the lot, MY2014 order sheets are only a few months away. I am sure they are looking to move 2013s.
Not sure if you are leasing or buying, but watch the interest rates as that is another way a dealer can pad the deal. -
daveg35 Posts: 7After discovering that my delaer was trying to "mark up" the MF I told them I was going to shop around before signing the paperwork - even though I had given them a $500 deposit on a custom ordered S4 that just arrived. As soon as they heard that they were willing to forgo the mark up, saving me $900 over the life of the lease. The lesson here is to be sure you know what the Audi MF is and what the dealer is charging you. Marking up the MF is an easy way for them to hide what they are really chargng you.
My final deal:
Final Price after discount ($1,670) and rebate/incentives ($2,500): $48,850
ACQ Fee: $695
Title/Reg Fee: $175
Doc Fee: $399
Free Audi Care
Free All Season Weather Floor Mats
tcov Posts: 3I am thinking of getting an s4 and have gotten some lease numbers from the dealer. I have a few questions.
How accurate is edmunds tv as a price to negotiate for? Right now it appears that tv is ~1000 higher than invoice.
Also, dealers is saying that he is adding .00015 to MF of .00068 since I am a new Audi customer. -
azax456 Posts: 18I am a new Audi customer, just signed a deal on a 2013 S4 yesterday. Paid invoice and MF was at .00068. DO NOT let them mark up the MF, tell them that is a deal breaker. The only reason it should be raised is if you have horrible credit. If there is more than 1 dealership in your area you should not be paying a more than $500 over invoice.

Importers project higher prices and reduced volumes by early March, the expected effective date of a new suspension agreement between Mexican tomato growers and the U.S. Commerce Department.
The Commerce Department announced the plan on Feb. 2. The agreement sets different floor prices for Mexican fresh tomatoes during the summer and winter and also specifies prices for open field/adapted-environment and controlled-environment production.
The proposal raises minimum prices substantially, in some cases more than double the current floor price for certain products.
U.S. growers had been unhappy with current floor prices for Mexican tomatoes and in 2012 requested the end of a suspension agreement that set those prices since 1996, stopping an anti-dumping investigation.
There are no winners with the new suspension agreement, said Jaime Chamberlain, president of J-C Distributing Inc., Nogales, Ariz.
"I think the American consumer, whether at the retail or foodservice level, will end up paying the price," Chamberlain said.
He said the market price for Mexican tomatoes will increase and volume will decline when the new prices become effective. The Commerce Department said the prices should be in place by March 4, following a monthlong comment period.
"If you are a repacker, you will see an immediate increase in price," Chamberlain said.
Prices will be passed down the supply chain to consumers, he said.
The agreement raises the winter period (Oct. 23 through June 30) reference price for open field/adapted environment tomatoes from current levels of 21.69 cents per pound to 31 cents per pound. For a 25-pound carton of Mexican tomatoes, that would raise the price from $5.42 per carton to $7.75 per carton.
For the summer period, from July 1 to Oct. 22, the reference price for open field/adapted environment tomatoes from Mexico was raised from the current level of 17.2 cents per pound to 24.58 cents per pound. That translates into an increase from $4.30 per 25-pound carton in the current agreement to $6.15 per carton in the new deal.
Where as previous suspension agreement had only one reference price for summer tomatoes and another for winter tomatoes, the new suspension agreement also creates new categories for controlled environment and specialty tomato varieties.
Controlled environment tomatoes, other than the specialty varieties, now have a reference price of 32.51 cents per pound in the summer and 41 cents per pound in the winter. That would translate to $8.13 per 25-pound carton in the summer $10.25 per 25-pound carton in the winter.

Baking has always been a hobby of mine. I usually prefer to bake from scratch, so that I have control over the quality of ingredients. But, pressed for time and in desperate need of something to bring to a brunch, I purchased Vitalicious Banana Muffin Baking Mix. All it took to create 12 yummy muffins was 2 egg whites and 1 1/3 cups of water. I used some walnuts as well. I mixed up the batter with ease and within no time my kitchen smelled like a bakery. The banana aroma lingered through the air, making me rather hungry.
Not wanting to wait until brunch, I ate one of these muffins right out of the oven - HOT! Split in half and smothered in Earth Balance Soy Butter, I was in heaven. These muffins were great! They taste sweet - even though they are sugar free and the banana flavor is not overwhelming. I love the contrasting texture added by the nuts and I was more than thrilled to take these to the brunch I was going to - where I might add, they were a hit.
Each muffin made from Vitalicious Banana Nut VitaMuffin Mix (57 grams or 2 ounces) is only 90 calories (more if you add nuts), 2.5 grams of fat, no saturated fat, 10% of the daily value for sodium (240 mg), 5 grams of protein and 19 grams of carbs which includes 20% of the DV for fiber (5 grams) and of course, no sugar. This also provides over 50% of your daily needs for vitamins A, C, D, E, B6, B12, Biotin, Zinc, and Iron. The sugar alcohol maltitol is used as a sugar replacer, which is why this was still sweet enough, but without the calories. I didn't see a figure for the amount of sugar alcohol in each serving, but it is the first ingredient.
This flavor and more VitaMuffin mixes are available online at Vitalicious.com. Each bag costs $5.99 and makes 12 muffins. I LOVE this mix and can't wait to try the other varieties. Not only is this a great choice for diabetics, but for those of us watching our waistline too.

I had permanent eyeliner done yesterday. How long should I wait before using Latisse? I stopped the Latisse 1 week before the procedure at the request of my operator. If I wait a few more days to start Latisse, will my eyelashes still be long?

Comments about Kompressor Pack:
The Kompressor pack is billed as a pack to use on day trips from base camp, and in that respect it performs perfectly. It's lightweight, comfortable, is hydration compatible, and holds a lot of gear for day trips. On top of that you can use it as a compression sack for soft items (i.e. your sleeping bag) in your main pack on the way to base camp. Pretty slick idea for not much money.

Do you accept donations of trees either potted or in the ground?
Sorry! Currently, our nursery is dedicated to growing and caring for native tree seedlings. These seedling are sprouted from seeds that we gather in the regional mountain and park woodland areas where we will be planting. This ensures that we are using native stock from those areas – a practice appreciated by all the agencies we work with.
We suggest you call your city Recreation and Parks Department, or state park (if it is a native tree or shrub) to see if they are interested in your donation. You might also contact landscape architects, Habitat for Humanity.

I'm truly interested now in building an all around winner, not just a bot to kill the last one. This one ain't it, but I'm looking forward to the one that is. Walkers have good traction, tanks have mass and power, wedges are devious but always seem to have some flaws.

Restaurants in Amsterdam
Restaurants cover all price categories and cuisines ranging from Dutch and European to Indonesian and fusion. Popular dining is found in the Leidseplein and Rembrandtplein areas. Indonesian restaurants have an important place on the city's scene, and Bojo is a fine budget performer. Many Amsterdam kitchens close at 10pm, so either dine early or choose a place that stays open late. Service and value-added tax are generally included but check the bill.
Blauw aan de Wal
17th-century charm
A blue light announces Blauw aan de Wal at its restored 17th-century setting
in a tranquil, tree-shaded courtyard in the city's red-light district.
Diners have a choice of several atmospheric rooms with wood floors and brick
walls in which to enjoy exceptional French-inspired cuisine. In summer they
can eat on the outside terrace.

Rich, you know how on pc power supplies there is usually a +5v, +12v, sometimes a +3.3v, etc....outputs, those are referred to as rails. Sometimes when a psu goes bad only one of the rails goes bad, say the +12v....
PC power supplys seem a lot simpler to troubleshoot than the power supplys on the HR24s, but I don't think it really matters (to me, at least), if the front panel lights don't work the PS seems to be bad. I've only replaced 3 boards, but all 3 boards turned dead 24-500s into working 500s. To me a ten minute job to fix something is better than spending hours troubleshooting components.
I've done a lot of troubleshooting and it was always under pressure. Nobody cared what I did as long as I got the equipment running. I just never had time to "fix" a component part.
Appreciate the explanation, that was a good analogy.

The unfortunate truth is that some locals suffer with inadequate heating in the winter and insufficient air conditioning in the summer.
"It's a good idea to check on the elderly, handicapped or even people living alone in cold weather like this," said Bolivar County Sheriff Kelvin Williams. "If you think someone might need assistance, please check on them.
"If you haven't heard from someone in a day or two, and you have a true concern about their safety, you can contact the Bolivar County Sheriff Department and we will check on them."
Williams added that if the caller has access to a key or some method of entering the house it would assist the sheriff's department greatly.
Cleveland Ward 2 alderman Robert Sanders said it's about extending a caring hand to fellow neighbors.
"It's very important we're checking on our residents to make sure they have enough heating in these frigid temperatures," said Sanders. "I'd advise this anytime we have weather conditions like this.
"People also need to be aware that there are agencies out there who can assist with this issue. At the state level there's the Department of Human Services Division of Aging, and at the county level, assistance can be sought from the Bolivar County Community Action Agency."
Sharone Oliver, director of the BCCAA Aging Program, said grant funding allows the agency to support utility needs for underserved elderly.
"Through the CSBG LIHEAP grant we can provide utility assistance for light and gas," said Oliver. "Those who need help can call Kizzie Miller at Bolivar County Community Action at 662-846-1491 x 141."
The U.S. Department of Health And Human Services Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends the following tips for heating homes safely:
•If you plan to use a wood stove, fireplace, or space heater, be extremely careful. Follow the manufacturer's instructions
• Use fireplace, wood stoves, or other combustion heaters only if they are properly vented to the outside and do not leak flue gas into the indoor air space.
• Do not burn paper in a fireplace.
• Ensure adequate ventilation if you must use a kerosene heater.
• Use only the type of fuel your heater is designed to use — don't substitute.
• Do not place a space heater within 3 feet of anything that may catch on fire, such as drapes, furniture, or bedding and never cover your space heater.
• Never place a space heater on top of furniture or near water.
• Never leave children unattended near a space heater.
• Make sure that the cord of an electric space heater is not a tripping hazard but do not run the cord under carpets or rugs.
• Avoid using extension cords to plug in your space heater.
• If your space heater has a damaged electrical cord or produces sparks, do not use it.
• Store a multipurpose, dry-chemical fire extinguisher near the area to be heated.
• Protect yourself from carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning by installing a battery-operated CO detector and never using generators, grills, camp stoves, or similar devices indoors.
Conserving heat is also a big part of the battle. If you don't need extra ventilation, keep as much heat as possible inside your home.
Avoid unnecessary opening of doors or windows. Close off unneeded rooms, stuff towels or rags in cracks under doors, and close draperies or cover windows with blankets at night.

This dress is just amazing. The design and detail in this dress is just gorgeous!!! One of my favorite dress. I still don't understand why it's not sold out yet. Perhaps Bebe had lots of merchandise projecting a huge sale on this dress. I don't know the reason why it's not sold out yet, but Definitely not because it is not pretty enough.

By Kara McGrath
Natural Winter Art
This simple-yet-chic homemade artwork is a perfect (and super inexpensive) gift for mom! Check out your local thrift stores for a cool vintage frame and use a metallic spray paint to give it a wintery feel. If you don't live in an area with an abundance of sticks lying around, buy ones like these at a crafts store and paint them black. Spread the sticks evenly across the back of the frame, then use a staple gunor even better, get a parent to helpto attach them. Clip the ends so everything lines up and voilà! Instant masterpiece.

Senseman has been sitting in a tree protesting the current Willits bypass project since January 28. Her tree is currently guarded night and day by a large group of California Highway Patrol officers. The officers began preventing Senseman's supporters from delivering food and water to her starting March 22.
Since the first round of eight protester arrests on March 21, there have been at least five more arrests for trespassing as of Thursday morning.
CHP officers are quick to respond to any sign of photographers or reporters even approaching the work area—whether it is marked or not—chasing down the "trespassers" and telling them to move along or be arrested. This continues to occur even on county and state right of ways.
CalTrans has coned off the shoulders of Highway 101 near the south end of the bypass and placed signs indicating roadwork. In reality the only road work is to prevent photographers, reporters or protesters from stopping in the hypothetical construction zone.
CalTrans official position is the clearly marked construction zone is off limits for worker and protester safety, according to CalTrans spokesman Phil Frisbie.
The officers guarding the road near Senseman's tree spend most of their time milling around next to their cars looking at the protesters gathered on the hill opposite. CalTrans vehicles and large gravel trucks are coming and going along this road throughout the day.
Some valley residents near the construction zone are questioning the need to have noisy diesel or gasoline powered lights operating all night in the area of the three tree sits.
Senseman told TWN last week she was prepared to be cut off from supporters, having stockpiled food and water for that possibility. Last Friday, after a CalTrans supervisor read her a statement through a bullhorn, Senseman believed officers were preparing to "extract" her from the tree.
This week the brush- and tree-cutting began along the bypass route in earnest as the contractor attempted to get the stalled project back on schedule.
The sound of earthmoving equipment, chainsaws and flail mowers has filled the valley in the area east of Senseman's tree-sit. A diesel power light has kept the tree-sit area brightly lit at night.
Senseman had originally lowered a statement Thursday morning from her tree-sit to be read to the gathered press and her supporters.
Three officers prevent TWN photographer Steve Eberhard from taking photos in an unmarked area along Highway 101, a significant distance from the Warbler tree and not within the designated construction zone. Officers have hassled TWN photographers and reporters to the point of threatening them with arrest throughout the current occupation even when the photographer was standing or stopping to take photos in areas outside the designated construction zone. (TWN photo/Linda Williams)
"Currently I am witnessing the destruction of my home. CalTrans is clearing multiple areas for destruction—cutting trees, clearing brush—despite the fact that the Federal Migratory Bird Act is in effect as of February 1, 2013. California Highway Patrol (CHP) officers have been deployed from around the state to occupy our valley. The occupation is complete with helicopter fly-bys and 24-hour surveillance.
"This project is obsolete and it will cause irreparable damage to our watershed, forest, and community. The life that this valley harbors will not survive this assault on its biological integrity. I am 24 years old and I want a future, and a future for my children. I will remain on hunger strike until the following demands are met:
"1) All construction on CalTrans' current Willits bypass cease immediately pending legal resolution.
"2) The public and press are able to enter the destroyed and disturbed areas to document said destruction and violations of law, nature and common sense.
"3) Least harmful alternatives and appropriately scaled transportation solutions for Willits and the Little Lake Valley are adopted."
Senseman says she has water, tea and will take a little broth for the next few days.
A group of about 45 of Senseman's supporters gathered at 10 a.m. Thursday at the area on the west side of Highway 101 above the tree-sit location for the impromptu announcement.

The third (and final) season of Filmation's Superman, and another new show- this time combined with Batman. The show continued to combine two Superman episodes around one of Superboy.
Just in case you have never watched TV, read a book, seen a movie, or looked at the comics, here is a brief history of Superman:
Shortly before the planet Krypton exploded, Superman (then known by his birth name, Kal-El) was put into an escape rocket by his parents and sent off into space. After crash-landing on Earth, he was discovered by John and Martha Kent, who raised him as their son, Clark Kent. As young Kal-El/Clark grew, he discovered his various talents, such as incredibly powerful strength and the ability to fly. Relocating to Metropolis, Clark began to live a dual life, working as a reporter for the Daily Planet, but turning into Superman whenever trouble surfaced.
The character of Superman first left the comics pages in the 1930's, starring in several animated theatrical shorts. He then moved on to enjoy a successful radio show during the 40's, a popular live-action TV version starring George Reeves in the 1950's, and even a 1966 Broadway musical before returning to the small screen in 1966, this time in animated form.
Almost ten years after the live-action TV show was cancelled, Superman starred in The New Adventures of Superman. The series utilized the same basic cast as the 1940's radio version, and consisted not only of stories about Superman's world-saving exploits, but also of segments that showed him as a boy in rural Smallville. These segments featured super dog Krypto and Clark's first girlfriend, Lana Lang. Bud Collyer, who had provided Superman's voice for both the Fleischer cartoons and the radio broadcast, reprised his role in this version, too.
The strong point of this version was its faithfulness to the comic book. The show featured villains from the printed stories, like Mr. Mxyzptlk and Brainiac.
After one season, the title was changed to The Superman/Aquaman Hour of Adventure, and Aquaman, the son of Atlantis, starred in segments of his own. In its last season, Batman was added to the show and given top billing, resulting in The Batman/Superman Hour.
Sadly, Superman was as vulnerable to bad ratings as he was to Kryptonite. Hanna-Barbera's Space Ghost finally proved to be too much competition for the Man of Steel, who left the cartoon airwaves in 1969.
Superman retained his membership in the Justice League, which kept him employed on Saturday morning's Super Friends well into the 80's. CBS gave him another solo shot in 1988, but this version went the way of Krypton, destroyed after one season.
The most recent incarnation of the man with the "S" on his chest came in 1997, with The New Superman Adventures. Animated in the angular, darker style of Batman: The Animated Series, this Superman caught on with 90's kids, becoming a mainstay of Fox Kids' afternoon lineup.

Asics Spring 2011 – The DS Trainer and a Few Close Cousins
The Asics DS Trainer was popular long before the current minimalist movement hit. There's a reason it's been around for over 15 years, the enticing combination of light weight, responsive ride and a touch of support resonated with a significant portion of the serious running crowd. With the advent of the minimal movement and the demand for more light weight models increasing, Asics has decided the best way to address the market was to take their most popular lightweight midsole/outsole combination and offer slightly tweaked version targeted at different runners.
For Spring 2011, Asics offers three lightweight trainers all based on the tooling borrowed from various versions of the DS Trainer; the updated GEL-DS Trainer 16, the newly introduced GEL-Noosa Tri 6 and the entirely new GEL-DS SkySpeed.
