I wanted to get an A3 3.2 S line, and then the $hitty lease programs turned me away. $687/mon with $3000 due at signing!!! I checked ALL Boston area dealerships. Are people buying/leasing? How much did you put down? How much is your monthly installment? Just wondering how people are managing with prices like this!!??

 

I got my car from Clair Audi in Norwood. Excellent service there. They don't offer good lease rates Audis in general I think at least it seems so in MA. I put 15k down and pay 300/month @ 5.9% for 5 yrs.

 

I'm going to buy used this summer with 10k down and my payments are going to be around $250/mo. A 2.0T at $25-26k

 

My 2.0TDI cost me $45000 here in Taipei. High import taxes and environmental taxes are a big part of the price, but in addition, Audi's are sold exclusively by the Swire Group in Taiwan, so there is no competition amongst dealership.

My monthly payments are $0. No lease here. Want the car? Pay for it. That's it.

 

I got my Audi from herb chambers Audi! They were amazing great buying experience. I bought an 07 a3 2.0t premium for 28k and a 2500 down payment. i then paid 9k out of personal money to my bank. and financed 19k for the rest of the car. Im paying $550 a month for 3 years. (Its my first major purchase so i got a shitty interest rate.) when im done ill be paying just over 21k. not too bad pretty doable.

 

Thanks for sharing guys. Yea, I figured I would have to put a significant down payment down to get any sort of deal... Any 3.2's care to share?

 

I know that after a past post we lost an Audi guy to a BMW because he is a leaser and not a buyer. Audi try's to have crapy lease's or none on the A3 so that you go for an A4 as you already have.

 

Opps ^
sorry Sox didn't relize that was you. Still looking to get an A3? NICE!
So truly thinking about buying instead of leasing?

 

Hey man, yea that was me! An A3 S line would have been sweet, but I already ordered my new car which I am equally excited about! Check out my signature.

I just wanted to see if anyone found a deal on a lease for this car. And based on others responses, it seems to confirm my though that no one can find any sort if a deal unless they buy this car v. leasing.

A dealer has told me that the reason why they price A4 leases more aggressively is because it is more profitable for Audi and the stealership

 

I got my 2007 A3 from Chandler Audi. I put 1000 down and pay 545.00 a month. Had a trade-in that owed some so thats why the higher car note.
