I calculated invoice at about 7.4% when we were shopping.
Of the 4 dealers in our area, all are selling S3s as quick as they land at full MSRP. I got an offer for 3% over invoice due to an existing relationship/previous purchase with my dealer, but the 6% ACNA discount ended up being a better deal for both parties, since the 3% over invoice offer was actually more of a cut to the dealer's margin than the 4% off MSRP they are responsible for under ACNA.

I am planning to change oil by myself.

I'm not much for extended warranties, although I usually don't keeps cars past the lease, particularly first model-year Audis.
Don't change the first oil yourself before 5000 miles, it's a special break-in oil (at least I'm told this).
My 2 cents

I have had Audi Care on my last 4 Audi's (including present A6) and think it worthwhile if only because everything with an Audi is expensive.
I assume you are in the US, it might be different in ROW.
FWIW - I am told Audi runs-in all the engines and changes the oil at the factory after the run-in, so it is safe to wait until 5,000 miles.
