I am a BMW as well a future Audi owner. The BMW club pays the rebate out of their pockets (based on your membership status and qualifying vehicle). Audi club, in my opinion, simply negotiated a dealer with the factory to provide supplier pricing. Both can have advantages depending on the programs offered by manufacturer and dealer. With Audi it's one program or the other. Plus the dealer has the option of declining the program. With BMW, the $500 (for 3/4-series and M3/M4) is simply a bonus on-top of the other programs and your negotiating skills. Plus the value of the BMW incentive climbs with the class of vehicle.

Actually, Audi allows you to stack the offers:

"This program is compatible with any Audi retail incentive (loyalty or conquest) and AFS Special or Standard rate program unless noted in future communications."

6% is an "automatic" discount with the ACNA certificate. If you are NOT a member of the ACNA, I can sympathize with your not wanting to join and wait 6 months for the eligibility to kick in.
Anyone who loves Audis, or, even if you don't love them, plan to buy/lease one, should be a member of the ACNA. The annual dues compared to the discounts make it a bargain.
We've now acquired 2 S4's and 1 SQ5 with the Audi Club discount and we're down to less than 7 weeks before my wife's 2018 SQ5 arrives, and it too will be purchased using an ANCA certificate -- and it will also get the loyalty bonus (that is in effect at the time -- probably $750, but at least $500 -- either one beats a poke.)
The ACNA also gives you a subscription to the magazine quattro quarterly, which has lots of "inside baseball" type content. If you're trolling here on Audiworld (reading and not posting), please join the Audi Club if you plan to buy.
When my wife was out of love with Audi for a few years, she joined BMW's club and we got a similar "rebate" and discount based on her membership,
I have NO affiliation (other than I am a member) with the ACNA, I just have had discounts of almost $12,000 so far on three Audi S cars -- it is a no-brainer.
There is a "but" -- some Audis are, currently NOT eligible for the discounts, due to their popularity, availability, etc. The R8 and Q7, are two prominent vehicles that are temporarily not part of the deal (I would be the R8 may always remain ineligible.)

I'm an active member of the Georgia chapter for the last 4 years and it is amazing how many great events they host every year. Just this past weekend the annual Quattro De Mayo event took place in North Georgia with many organized drives and great opportunities to meet fellow Audi enthusiasts.
The 6% discount is just an added bonus. Mark, you had mentioned that R8 and Q7 are not eligible for the ACNA discount but I wanted to add that all RS models are excluded as well.
Here is a picture from last week's event:

As a follow up, I just returned from Audi dealership of Coral Springs(S Florida) with total refusal of manager to ever acknowledge the ACNA 6% on S4/5.
No incentive for switching from BMW either. He offered 2%. Was told car club discount will not apply to RS or S lines.
Evidently pricing has everything to do with location.
