Is it possible to preorder a lease?

**Tiesto** · 11-30-2008 05:37 PM

I'm starting to seriously consider selling the A4 soon then preodering the B8 S4 when it becomes possible. Can I only preorder if I'm buying or can they do leases too?

i pre-ordered my E92 335i and it was a lease. you should be able to do the same.

are you sure you want to lease? due to the low supply and the high demand, im sure prices will be rediculously high.

Well I could buy but I was thinking if I was only going to keep it for about 3 years and not mod then maybe it's cheaper to lease? Isn't the 335 in high demand too? How are your rates?

I don't think it is possible to preorder a buying or a lease at this time. I've contacted with Penske Audi for preorder B8 S4 and they told me to give a call sometimes in Jan for further info.

yeah my lease was quite high, which is why i off-loaded it a few months later via leasetrader.com

IMO the demand for E92 335i's is not as high as it once was...i think you can pick-up a decently optioned 335 for ~35-38k (07s will be cheaper).

Wow so maybe I'm crazy for thinking about going as high as 60k for the S4. That's a big difference.

If it is going to above 60k for the S4, I would get an M3. Just curious how many people would buy the S4 for 60k.

Well if its 60K out the door for an S4 then it would still be a good price since an M3 with most of the goodies out the door price is around 67-72K

Yeah people always talk about how cheap 335s are supposidly are but with the options I want it came out to over 58k. That's without the illuminated door sills or 19s either. Plus it lacks all wheel drive, dual clutch, and 33 hp. =/

Audi sales guy in Minneapolis told me $500 refundable deposit to get on list for b8 s4. Lease or purchase. My best price guess is starting at $47,000. However tick a few boxes and probably high 50's.

You can always order a lease, anyone who says otherwise is crazy... My lease car will be here in feb, the exact way I wanted it haha, some dealers will ask for a deposit and if you want crazy options then it may not be refundable... all depends on how easily the dealer can sell the car if you back out... I know this for a fact cause i worked at a audi dealer, anyone that says otherwise at a dealer is just blowin smoke, soo go elsewhere haha... and S4 programs arent out yet which is why you would have to wait... goodluck and s4 is better than the 335
