I would like to purchase my A8 off lease. (I did this with my last A8) Called Audi and they said they don't do this anymore, and referred me to the dealer for the sale. Anyone with experience with this? And is end of lease price negotiable?
Talk to your favorite dealer about it. In most cases, there is some room to get you a better deal than the residual. However, it all depends on how good of a deal you got the first time around when you signed your lease. If you "stole" the car, then there is a chance there is nothing the dealer can do to improve the price. Consider getting a bit off of the residual as a good deal, you basically are circumventing your signed agreement to buy the car at a predetermined price, should you choose to do so. Hope that helps!
