Default Residual and Money Factor on the RS4

I was thinking about buying the RS4 but I am weighing all of my options now, and I am considering a leases instead. For those of you that have done your deals or are negotiating now, I'm curious what numbers your dealers are telling you regarding AFS rates for a 36 month 12K mile lease.

I heard from one post last month:
Residual- 60%
Money Factor- .00307

Yesterday at a dealer here in Southern They told me something different:
Residual- 58%
Money Factor- .00395

That money factor is insane! It translates to a 9.5% interest rate.

Default the numbers you read last month were not for the RS4.

the RS4 numbers were just released by AFS this past Thursday, so the .00307 was probably for the S4.

I got .00375 on a 48mo lease (48% residual). AFS rates are always high...but their residuals are pretty decent for this car.

Default hey Bob...read your previous post...

I also live in San Antonio...I noticed there are not many AW members here. I was amazed that you got one of the first RS4s in the states and it is here in SA!

If there are every any local Audi events...please let me know about them. If I ever see your car on the road, don't be scared if a ming blue A4 "tries" to catch up to qualk at it. If you get a chance you can email me also.
