How much did u guys pay for your a5? is there a waiting list for a5?

[A4Ber]

I am looking for the new a5 with all the options(sline, Premium, B&O sound system, and Navi, and tip)? how much was it out the door? Audi.com shows 50890.00? Should i just multiply 1.1 to get the total?

[greene08]

You'll be paying MSRP for an A5 right now so that would be a really solid estimation.

[yamatoii]

but thats msrp, dealerships jack up prices alot depends on where you live. the idea is the dealer told me, audi never intended to sell A5 to the mass in America, the factory only gives each dealership 2 order capacity every 6 weeks. soo you will see at least 1k above the msrp.... i just bought mine last week~

MSRP

There is a black on black fully loaded used A5 at Audi Henderson in Vegas. Could save a little bit of money by going pre-owned.

HAHAHA.....Thats the ultimate car salesman line!! HAHAHA!
If you dont want to pay over MSRP, call around to different dealers.
There is no shortage of the A5. It's just new and some people will get raped when a dealer says 1K over MSRP. I'm sure some dealers will say more.
Fact is, you will soon be able to get discounts on the car. In fact, you probably can if you make enough phone calls.

Beat this country... I paid just under $200 000. We are the secondmost expensive country in the world when it comes to cars. Denmark is number one. An Audi R8 costs about $400 000.

[greene08]

$200,000 what? USD?

[skoTner]

$200,000 what? USD?

$200 000 US Dollar yes...

yeah, with a 200% tax on new cars, and a 63% tax burden for the wealthy....not surprising.

But, still a top 10 place to live in the world...

[greene08]

My god...

[hershey]

I got mine at MSRP, bought it before it hit the show room floor :) . However, the dealership told me that Audi is only releasing a few in the USA and that there is a 5K markup if the cars hit the show room floor. It is an incentive to sell the cars before they even get to the dealers. The day my car arrived, another one arrived as well. The sticker on that car was 5K more than mine even though everything was the same.

I dont think dealers cant change the MSRP unless the company authorizes them. I live in Bay Area. If you are going to get one, order it, easiest way and cheapest too. :)

We won't sell cars above MSRP.

[Sirfishalot]

There's a loaded (w/S-line & all options) A5 at my dealership -University Audi for $58k. That's $1k over sticker of the 07 S4.
I can't see how people will pay that much for the car. The S5, I could see. The styling is sweet, but performance is no where near the S5 or S4. Be curious to know how US sales of the A5 are going at these rates.

The supply seems to be up, I wouldn't settle for any market adjustment at all. There are too many dealers all over the country willing to sell at straight MSRP. As for wait, any orders that got in last week and were allocated are getting delivered in November.

[hershey]

58K ???? MSRP thru audi's site is 51K, exactly what I paid at my dealership for my A5 and mine is fully loaded ...

[pcdrj]

CPO '08 Sline, Nav, premium, tech $46000

100% agree

[sakimano]

A5 orders are not above MSRP...unless you have a douchebag dealer

S5 orders aren't either...they're just slow. June delivery for orders today, although MANY people are bailing on their S5 and R8 orders right now...economy fears.

Cars on sight might carry a premium, but dealers are admonished when doing this. Just as they ask you to sign a no-flip agreement when you order a new R8, they should respect the M in MSRP and sell the cars according to the pricing structure.

Bottom line is MSRP itself is a markup from what the dealer paid for the car. You're able to buy the car anywhere you and the dealer find an agreement...if that's above MSRP you're either impatient (understandable if you NEED the car now, not later) or have money to burn.

The 'S' in MSRP is 'suggested' -- the dealers will continue to charge above MSRP as long as people are still buying them for that price. No sense in them throwing away revenue if people are willing to pay.

true that!

[A4-S-Line17]

Can i get some lease numbers please??

[Gzo17]

Lease is probably in the $700-800 range, thats just a guess. Audi wants you to buy this car, not lease.

Any news on the A5 2.0T? Or is that just a rumor?

[A4-S-Line17]

Makes no sense considering you can get an S5 for 699, and i recently got a quote from the lease outlet for an A5 with S-line and B&O system for 550 for the longest term possible, Wich if fine considering you can trade in the car whenever you want. Audi will have to offer the A5 in the 400-500 range when the hype goes down. No one is going to pay above 1000 to lease an S5 or 800 for an A5.

[Gzo17]

Key word being when the hype goes down. I can guarantee that if you try to lease an A5 now, it will be over $600/month. Maybe a year from now (I hope bc I want one) AoA will have better lease programs for the A5/S5.

[BooSTED A4our]

i just got quotes from my sales guy today and i know ill be waiting for a lease deal...apparently with 6000 down on a $49,450 MSRP (A5 w/ S-Line, Prem and Tech Pkg with the Bang & Olufsen Sound System) is about $810/month for 3 years and 12k miles/month

but you can still order them from factory and apparently the a5s take about 2-3 months to arrive

[A4-S-Line17]

You can lease an S5 for 699 a month, how would the A5 be above 600, i got a quote for 550 for everything i want (S-Line And B&O). Use your head alil their, and hype will go down much quicker then a year.

No offense, but there are more than a few things wrong with your facts here...

[A4-S-Line17]

No offense but i don't give a F*** because those are the facts i got and whether you believe me or not makes no difference to me

[s vier]

Nice...attitude check 1-2 1-2. There are WAYS in which your facts could be correct but they are very misleading and will never happen as you state without very large *'s being put down on all of them.

Whether you care about me believing you is not important. What's important is that you understand how your facts are wrong or misleading because OTHERS will believe what they read here and continue to pass along incorrect or misleading "Facts". I don't doubt that this is what you were told by someone. That is not what's in question.

Listen genius i got my facts from a leasing company and my numbers are official and are as of now and are only projected to get lower.

You mean this leasing company? www.fleetrates.com ?

Notice how they say $699, but you go to their site and its $799-800 for an S5 and they dont mention how much money has to come out of your pocket. YES you can get to that number, but you will have to put way over $5K out of your pocket.

I spoke to someone at Prestige today, and they have tons of A5s, go get a quote from them and then get back to me. Here's a hint, I'm on the money on my estimate. Understand that Audi does not have good lease programs for this car like it does for the A4s.

[sakimano]

that guy got really quiet, real fast!

Gotta love the ill-advised loudmouth.

[Hamann]

no shit...should have read the fine print:

"All advertised lease payments are based with 10% capitalized cost reductions plus standard drive off fee's. Typical terms are 48-63 months with A tier one credit and are based on between 10-12K miles per year. Payments shown don't include taxes or registration fee's"

So, let's see...you can achieve a $799 payment for a moderately equipped S5 with a $6,000 down payment + "standard drive off" fees, which can be ~$1500 for Acquisition fee and the destination charge. Not to mention your sales tax...oh yeah, not included...forgot about that heh? So, let's see.

48 month lease:

$799 lease + 7% tax = $855

Money down = ~$7500

$7500 / 48 months = $156.00

Actual monthly payments = $1,011. With good credit.

Where in the F did you get $699?? LOL Is that with 2,000 miles a year???

Wich if fine considering you can trade in the car whenever you want.

huh? Your lease payments are based on what your car will be worth "residual" after your lease is up. You can't simply "turn your car in whenever you want" without getting raped on depreciation costs. Are the residual's conservative for the S5? Probably...but, try to "turn your car in" after 21 months and see what happens.

If you don't have anything of value to add...please...please stop making comments.

[s vier]

Owned!

[Mstyle]

Just paid $54k for a full loaded A5, S-Line Package, Premium, 19s, Navi, Audi Drive Select. Sweet Ride....

[A4-S-Line17]

Hahahaha "owned", cHomo....and the internet where I'm at was down and your all retarded because its not "fleet rates" and i spoke to the salesman on the phone and have everything ready for order. but enjoy over paying for your cars and getting fucked by the dealers

No shit you should read the regular print dumb ass because i am leasing an A5 not an S5 and i am going threw a 3rd party company that lets you trade your car in after 6 months or have someone assume your lease and i am only putting 5,000 down. So go to your basement and jerk off some more

Have fun! Can't wait to see your new car! When are you getting it btw? You must be waiting for the "daddy contribution" to get those prices right? I ask because you seem like you're 17-19 years old what with your homoerotic references.
