Default Advice on 2016 A8L 4.0 TFSI Sport

Hello, I have followed the board for some time but this is my first post. I am close to purchasing a new 2016 A8L 4.0 Sport (I live in Iowa) and want your advice on what I should expect on negotiating a price. I have not owned an Audi for about 10 years (A4). It appears the price as built will be close to $95,000. Is there a target percentage off I should try to achieve, 5%, 10%? I look forward to your reply.

I've always seen a variance in what dealer's will knock off of the price, but one thing for sure is that they will go down some. Try a couple different dealers, tell them what you're looking to order, and see what they will do for you. Some people advocate playing dealers off of each other, I've personally never had any success with it but it is an option. Just make sure they don't slather it with paint protection and scotchguard packages, for some reason dealers are always trying to push hard that colossal waste of money.

Jack88, I was originally thinking if I received 5% off it would be good, but I don't want to underestimate what may be possible.

5% is reasonable, 10% is difficult on a brand new model. Ask, see what you get.

i was able to get over $10k off sticker as well as 48 month service plan and window tint thrown in. this was on a current model year purchase in february.

right now they are advertising 2015s at $10k off.....

if you know you are going to purchase an audi, join the audi club of north america and after 6 months membership you will get supplier pricing (6% off on most models).
