It seems pretty good to me, but I'd appreciate ... Read More...
Re: Is this a good lease deal on the A3? [jkenik]
Hi jkenik. $300 under dealer invoice is an excellent selling price for a 2008 Audi A3. The money factor that you were quoted looks good as well. It is right in line with what Audi's April buy rate was in the states that it is running its special enhanced lease offer on this car in, assuming that you are having your car's security deposit waived.

Used Audi A3 prices
I am in the market for a used Audi A3 and I was thinking that the used car prices listed on TMV is a little too conservative. The particular model that I am looking for 2006 A3 6-speed MT with leather seats and less than 30,000 miles is listed at a dealer price of $18,500 on TMV. But I cannot find a used A3 with the options I want for less than $22,000 anywhere. So is the TMV ... Read More...
Euro delivery of 2009 A3?
Hi all, Been awhile since I've really been active on Edmunds. Wife is thinking about an A3 and if I heard correctly, isn't Audi now offering a European delivery program (finally)? In either case, was wondering if anyone knows when 2009 production is going to start...looks like 2008 was into the USA by roughly August, so I was wondering if we could do a May/June order ...

A3 excessive tire wear issues, 2006,2007,2008
I'm on my second A3. The first one 2006 - 6 speed red/black cloth, I loved the car, but after 8,000 miles I thought I heard wheel bearing growl.

The tires had been rotated at 5,000which is when they got really bad then at 8,000, again at 13,000. The ... Read More...

Re: Feb's MF and Residual? [jccai1]
Hi jccai1. Audi is running a special lease program on the 2008 A3 in certain states right now. Unfortunately, Texas is not one of them. As a result, if you were to lease one through Audi Financial Services in your area right now, you would have to use its standard lease money factors. Even though AFS' standard factor isn't great, it is a lot better than the .00345 that ... Read More...

Re: Drove two A3s today... [andres3]
"Interesting your already in the market for a new Audi A3! I can see why, as I and others, including CR ranked it as one of the most very satisfying owner experiences with any vehicle." Already? Uhhh, my current car has 154,000 miles on it. While it has been the model of reliability, it is getting a little long in the tooth. "One thing... if you don't like to put your ... Read More...
