Well, 4 months after springing for a new GTI GLX (a damn fine car in its own right) I have come down with a severe case of S4 fever.. to the point that I'm considering taking a healthy loss on unloading the new GTI and taking the plunge. I've still got my 2-liter Scirocco to satisfy my VW needs, as well as serve as a daily driver and beater of sorts to keep the mileage reasonable on the S4.

What kind of numbers can I expect on a 36- or 48-month lease? I'm guessing ~$575-$600 for 36 months, maybe $50 less at 48, with minimal down (~$2500) and ASSuming I can negotiate a reasonable cap cost for the car (i.e. no over-list gouge). Do these numbers sound about right?? I'm already paying about $450/month on the purchase of the GTI, hell if I can drive an S4 for $150 more, including 3 years worth of warranty and maintenance, I'm all for it. And I've got a good Audi dealer about 3 minutes from my office.. very handy.

visiting the Audi USA website. Go to the financial services section and then to the payment comparator. You can calculate lease payments on the A4 (which, until Audi gives us the choice to choose the S4 will have to do) -- which I modify slightly to reflect the S4's retail price (and residual).
