Default I need opinions on this deal

Hi guys,

Just came back from an Audi dealer here today. Was planning to trade my 01 A4 ( just like the guy who posted a couple of threads earlier.) Anyways, A4 1.8T TIP, Premium, 10K miles. The deal he came up with was 2K down, 4.0% financing, 48 months, $621 a month for a 01 S4 1800miles with window tint. It's silver, with tip. I'm thinking that I can get close to 600 or below. I live in the Dallas, TX area. I've been checking ....aaa...'lusting' over S4s since the time I wanted more power out of my A4. So whaddya guys think? Worth it or bad deal? All opinions are welcomed and thanks in advance.

P.S. Alex R, you are not allowed to comment ...( he's the salesperson I worked with).

is that a purchase or lease? Sounds like a lease from the terms and monthly

Default Lemme clarify

I've paid about 4000K into my A4....
What do you guys recommend? The shocking thing to me was that they would only pay 21500 for my A4...leaving me top heavy in terms of me owning AFS another 4000K.... .

Default i'm talking about invoice

if it's more than invoice, then there'd be no way. i'll have to think it over and see how much i'd be able to sell my phatty ride for.

Default Not financially sound....

You will pay a total of $31,800 over 4 years. Add the $4,000 you would still owe AFS, and that brings you to $35,800. That seems awefully pricey for a lease. You may as well wait until your car is worth more than you owe. You could also sell your car to a private buyer and then lease the S4.
