Default Will Audi do any rebates on 2010 S5?

I'm trying to decide btwn low mileage used or new S5 right now. I've noticed that invoice (in US) isn't much under MSRP.

I'm figuring I can get one used with around 10k miles for about 10 thousand under original MSRP, but if they give a good rebate for 2010, I would be just as well to get a new one.

From my history of buying Audi, they never do any rebates on any of the S models.

Not likely on any of the S models. Outgoing models like the A6 or high volume models like the A4, yes, but keep in mind this is a business, to make money.

Well that sucks. I figured they would. I know that MB did a rebate on some AMG models last year. I sure don't see the S models as any more exclusive than AMG models...

Audi's motto is "never follow" so I doubt they will do rebates because MB did, in fact, that's why you see fewer of them on the road, they don't subsidize like BMW does for leases, and they don't really do rebates either. Actually, never seen one on any S model or their low volume cars. Even on their A models don't see them often.

Actually, the motto now is "Truth in Engineering"

It's not about exclusive, it's about demand. They sell every S5 they make

As of right now, not only does Audi not do rebates on an S5 they dont even have loyalty money. Having owned 7 Audis in the last 7 years, I have never seen a rebate happen but in the Domestic rhelm.

Also- as someone else said, Audi doesnt have to give deals on the S5 because they sell everyone they make. Even two years after coming out, resale is very strong and dealers barely have inventory.

Its a business of making money, if you dont have to discount the product, you dont.

if you want a discount, go buy a chevy malibu or something domestic.

YOu may be able to negotiate a few bucks off an S5 but youre not going to see a rebate. Even in 2009 when nothing was selling; I remember audi offering lower finance rates on everything but the S5. Says something.

If you are referring to the Audi Loyalty Rebates, they applies to all models except for the S5 and the R8 series.
