That makes more sense -- that's pretty nuts that they had to be 1:1 on allocation. Especially given that the S is a performance model. Thanks for the insight.

They didn't have to be, but not staying close to what is recommended can result in production delays which dealers obviously want to avoid.

Interesting, we only have the 6 S3's and showing over 40 A3's

I only have 16 A3s until we get the summer of Audi ones which are overpriced IMO.

I could have gotten a much bigger discount off MSRP on 2016, but I decided to order a
2017 (still for a decent % off MSRP). Newer model year, latest improvements, but mostly ordered it the exact color and options I wanted, nothing less and nothing more......
Furthermore, the assurance that the car hadn't was still "virgin" and not been
test driven/joy ridden by anyone.....
Good luck with whatever you guys decided.....

Anyone else use Truecar as a base for negotiations? It looks like 11% has been achieved by some people. Would you guys start at this number when starting negotiations? Is the dealer making anything on a number that low?

They will make nothing on a car at 11%. It will be done only to meet a monthly/quarterly incentive target. There may also be some other back door money from Audi or it could be a car that was floor planned and had been sitting for a while. there is only 8% MAX in an AUDI.

Why the secrecy with what you paid?

BostonDMD S4/Allroad

No secrecy, I didn't want for people to settle for what I agreed for which was 8% off the order.
Unfortunately I had to cancel it since my wife decided she wanted the 2017 Allroad.
Good luck!

Gotcha... Sorry to hear that you arent getting the S3 but the All Road is a beauty too.

Maybe you can live vicariously through me once I place my order..
