  Hi wtf_123. The dealer invoice price data for vehicles is available right here at Edmunds.com in the New Vehicle Pricing section of this site. Look up the invoice price for the exact A4 that you're interested in, subtract any available cash incentives, and ten add a couple hundred dollars to that to come up with a starting offer for dealers.
