    Ask a dealer

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Hello everyone,

    Current 2015 S4 owner. Just wanted to offer my free advice to anyone who has questions about making a car purchase. I'm not an Audi dealer but have been in the auto industry for close to 15 years now.

    If anyone has any questions about a new/used S4 or any car they're looking to buy, such as fair market price, wholesale values, etc. I'd love to help.

    This isn't a plug or sales promotion, just like helping my fellow enthusiasts out!

    What is a realistic offer on a brand new leftover 2015 S4 with an MSRP of $57K? It has been at the dealer for over a year. Also, in your professional opinion, when will the price of existing batch of '16 S4's begin to drop?

    Do you believe mark ups would change based in Canada vs the US? Or is the mark up the same? (E.G standard 7-8%) on a new car.

    So I went looking at two 2014's the other day. One was CPO asking $39999 with 37k. The other at another used at an Infiniti dealer $40998 with 18k. There was absolutely no negotiation. The sales manager wouldn't budge on the price. I wanted to be at $40k out the door. So basically all they had to do was discount the price like 3k. Now it's been a while since a bought a car. I still drive a 05 civic I bought new. Is this normal? Do used cars have any movement on price?

    Can I go out and buy a used Audi from anyone and then take it to a dealer to have it CPO'd? Or can I purchase an extended warranty that covers the car when the factory warranty expires? Are there any risks with either option?

    I've said it before... we need a sticky for these... the amount of "is this a good deal"? or "What is my car worth" threads warrants it.
