B9 discounts

[mstnggt66]

Anyone order have a deal for a B9 yet? Willing to share discounts?

I get the Audi Supplier Discount but that program is ending permanently on March 31, 2016. Wondering if it is worth rushing to take advantage of the program or if I can do better outside. That program, for those who don't know, is 6% off sticker.

The dealer I bought from does not honor supplier or ACNA discount. I was able to buy my B9 for invoice. Not bad considering it was the first B9 sold in Texas. This was Audi Central Houston. This was also my 6th purchase from them.

I just wasted money on ACNA membership then smh

I usually don't pay more than invoice. The B9 currently does not have as attractive incentives as the B8.5 which is usually due to the fact that it's the brand new model year. However, the newest Passat has the best offers compared to other VW models. Maybe in a few months Audi will provide better discounts. Until then, I'm relying on my Friends and Family discount

Do you have the invoice pricing numbers? In the market to upgrade from B8 to B9 and can't seem to find invoice.

Thanks!

From what I know 6% off is pretty standard with Audi. I got my B9 A4 at 9.5% off beck in mid August.

$3500 off in June on a $46995 sticker including destination charge. That's 7.5% off.

$3,974.40 off MSRP of $49,680.00 (8%) plus additional $750.00 for Audi Loyalty Rebate, total discount $4,700.00. I've heard people doing better too.

Bumping this thread. Is the Supplier Discount really dead? Was looking to purchase in the early springtime and wanted to know my options.

I got 11% off both my new cars :D

[hayasa]

How? ACNA Supplier Discount? Buying service (Costco, UBS, etc.)? Or just a good negotiator?

[VipinLJ]

Negotiation. I negotiated hard. I got my A4 from Audi Exchange in Illinois and they gave me the discounts without having to negotiate much. I got my A7 yesterday from Audi Orland park and there I negotiated hard, had to walk away once but they ended up giving me 11% off my new A7.

[hayasa]

I can really appreciate that. For me, though, I don't have the time, patience, or psychological stamina to deal with that. And my math sucks so I always know that somehow I'm getting ripped off. Much easier to walk in, check the boxes, take the standard discount, and go on with my day. Kinda bummed that the ACNA discount appears to have died, though. Costco it is.

Costco offered no dealers on Long Island. I used my Audi Club NA discount and ordered my Allroad Prestige at a little under invoice, from Audi of Huntington. A totally pleasant buying experience. Now the four month wait begins, as they modify an allocation for me.

[VipinLJ]

Costco offers a discount of 1000 for the A4 and 500 for A7. If I had chosen the Costco option, the car would've ended up being more expensive. Let them offer you the standard discount first and negotiate on that.

So is the ACNA (Supplier Discount) not dead? You just bought an Allroad using the discount? And then re-negotiated an even lower price? On an ordered car, not one on the lot that they want gone? I think I should hire you for my next purchase!

The first question she asked me was if I currently owned an Audi. I told her that have owned two Audi's in the past, but my current ride is a JSW. She was looking to offer the Audi Loyalty discount up front. So she said she would get the cost down other ways. Then I told her I was a member of AudiClub NA, and she said she would apply that discount.

Then she went back to work on it with Sales Manager, who had helped me with my '11 Avant lease. He came back with an offer under invoice, and I said OK.

I started off with TrueCar offer and then started negotiations from there.

The first dealership in Northern CA really tried to put the hard sell and gang mentality. They started with the True Car price and that they would make it worth my while. (was looking at 2017 A4 and Q5, but ruled Q5 out since the 2018 is coming out in May). $45050 retail Season Audi Quattro with heated front seats and wood inlays.

First offer: $4400 down, $525/month x 36 months for 10000 miles annual. Pass.

Second offer: $2000, $460/month x 36 months. Pass

Third offer: $2000 down, $425/month x 36 months. Pass

Fourth offer: $2000 down, $399/month x 36 months. Getting close (I leased a 2016 Season of Audi A4 for $1000 down, $384/month (all with tax) x 36 months so I was trying to get that similar number that I got from my Southern CA/LA dealership).

Then, they brought out the sales manager to try and close the deal. I balked b/c it was my 1st day of research/test drive. He said if we don't have a deal- he said good day. The middle sales person got pissed- and proceeded to lecture me that I was being rude to them by not doing a deal with them since they get paid on commission and they helped me out by letting me test drive the cars without a sales person present (never mind that they were short-staffed due to illness and Saturday after Black Friday). I told them that it was day 1 and that since I have worked with my sales person in SD (who by coincidence dealership is owned by the same group) for a number of years, I would always give him last crack after my research. That just really set this guy off- he started with the scare tactics- if you walk out without getting a deal done- this offer is off the table for good (never mind that they wouldn't put any of the offers discussed on paper- except the very first one). I don't fall for hard sell tactics. My actual junior sales person was kind of embarassed and apologized and handed me his card if I changed my mind.

I put out my feelers at my Audi dealerships in southern CA (2 in LA and 1 in SD). SD matched the northern CA on the phone/email (my guy).

LA dealerships didn't really get back to me without prodding. After some back and forth on the phone/text/email, I finally got some offers but nothing close- they even contacted me saying that they had good news that they could do the $1000 down and $384/month. When I tried to connect with them to get the exact invoice to make sure that the car was equipped the same- crickets. They responded the next day that they made a mistake and that it was for ultra and FWD.

I went back down to Southern CA for Christmas holiday and on Christmas Eve popped into the dealership in person just to see if they could beat the SD offer.

I ended up with a Season of Audi A4 Quattro with added heated front seat option (no wood inlays). Retail $44,700. After Audi Loyalty discount and negotiation- that leased amount was $39428 (invoice ~ $42000).

My 3 year lease: 10k annually. $2000 down, $383/month x 36 months- including Audi Loyalty discount.


Then, I called my guy at my old Audi dealer in SD came in- after talking to his sales manager, he beat that offer- $2000 and better than $383.


It's all about working with different dealers- end of the year/end of the quarter is usually the best time to make a deal- especially if you have a guy that you've done deals with before. They want to make their numbers for the year/quarter. It becomes pretty apparent which dealerships have made their numbers and which haven't.

America's much better than Canada it seems, oh how the consumer benefits from so much competition.

[RingNut]

The difference between MSRP and Invoice is 6% on all Audi cars. Being that the A4 is a volume car for Audi, most dealers are willing to go a little deeper, especially at the end of the month!
