2007 Audi A3 3.2L Quattro
Red with navigation and open skyroof
$40,500

That price just seems rediculous to me. I could buy a BMW 335i for that much! You think I could get them down to $32,000 ?

 

That price is ridiculous (though 'ridiculous' has no 'e'). Unless, of course, you wanted other options you didn't tell us about. The MSRP of that car, including the destination charge, is under $38K.

On the other hand, the invoice is over $35K, so I'd be very surprised if you can get it for $32K.

I was assuming you're talking about the regular red paint, not the pearl effect paint, which would add ~$700 to all quoted figures.

Have you checked Edmunds or KBB or any other pricing website? They'll give you more exact figures, which I'm too lazy to copy.

 

I just found the listing for the car here for more details

gravitron > Did you rule out the 2.0 T?

 

Not really, I just like the idea of the quattro and the more powerful engine.

 

The engine is just barely more powerful, and that's until you chip the 2.0T. Then it's no contest about which engine is most powerful.

Cheers!

 

Also, although the 6 cylinder engine has slightly more horsepower, the 3.2 weighs a lot more, so there's miniscule performance gain, if any, moving from 2.0 to 3.2. If you're looking for performance, you might be better off with a modified 2.0. If you want AWD, there's only one way to go.

 

If it's new, $32,500 isn't unreasonable. There is $1500 in incentives right now. If the dealer isn't willing, look elsewhere.
