Default 36 and 42 month lease numbers for 2014 S4

Hi all,

Looking at a lease on a 2014 S4 prem plus. The sale price hasn't been negotiated yet, but the dealer is giving me these numbers for a 36 vs 42 month lease. Note that these include the 1% Audicare residual bump:

36 months:
12k - residual 58% - MF .00088
15k - residual 56% - MF .00088

42 months:
12k - residual 54% - MF .00108
15k - residual 52% - MF .00108

The 36 month figures seem right per ridewithg, but I can't find any details on 42 month figures anywhere. If someone could post the 42 month rates are from Audi so I can see if the dealer is padding it, I'd appreciate it.

This is exactly what I got when I leased 3 weeks ago.

Leased my 2010 for 42 months because that gave me the better monthly payment. This time, dealer said 36 months was better. I didn't argue. BUT, This is the first time EVER that I was not looking to get out of my lease early and into a new or different car. Perhaps in another 3 yrs I will feel differently . Especially if the B9 is even better than the B8. One thing I can count on is that the B9 will have a bigger and even more grotesque grille .

Well, there is nothing wrong with that assuming you don't lose 6 months worth of DMV fees when you surrender a leased car after 42 months...

You mean as much as we can count on Audi not offering a B9 with a manual transmission?

Thanks for the input on the 36mo rates - still looking for the actual 42mo figures though. The dealer is telling me 42mo is the better deal right now (fees aren't an issue and I plan on ending the lease early anyway) but I want to confirm the numbers.

The Money Factor for 42 month leases is almost always a bit higher than terms of 36 months or less. It does not look like the dealer is padding the MF for the 42 month term.

A 42 month versus 36 month term usually ends up with a lease payment about $20 - $25 less. That does not mean 42 months is a better deal, just a slightly lower lease payment.
