I live in Charlotte and nearby dealers are VERY motivated to get rid of 2019 e-trons. Like, “just name a price” motivated. They’re offering 10% off right off the bat (either advertised on their site or you can go through Costco’s Auto program). Then you can get $2K if you’re an existing Audi owner/lessee. There’s always the $7,500 Federal Tax Credit you’ll get on next year’s taxes. Finally, they can dig deeper into their own pockets ... how much is something only they know. However, the fact that they were able to give me $59K for my trade-in when I bought it for that much 5 months ago tells me they can take about about $20-25K off (including the tax credit). That turns an $85K car into a $60K car really quick (that’s exactly the deal I got today and it was matched by a different dealership as well so I know it wasn’t a fluke). I bet you they still made at least $5K off of me. All I know is, you drive off the lot and you more or less have equity in the car (trade-in is $55K and private party value is $60K). You just have to fork the $7,500 now and recoup at tax time. Good luck! They’re actually great cars, especially if you like Audis from a few years ago. The range is not great but it’s manageable if you install a 240V outlet in your garage (which ought not run more than $200).I am thinking about getting a 2019 e-torn prestige. Is it a reliable car to get?
California dealer is offering me $13K off MSRP. Is it a good deal? What are current incentives?
thanks for your advice.
comments above are all true. I purchased a 2019 etron Prestige sitting on a local dealers lot (2,500 miles). Seems like all of the local Audi dealers here in the Westchester County NY area had 1 which was a corporate demo car. I got a tremendouse deal in the middle of a pandemic.

Update: oh, totally forgot ... 72 months @ 0% because why not ... XD
Did you buy in July or August? I've been watching advertised prices and one dealer was advertising 16K off MSRP in July, but now has only $14K off MSRP. I suspect an incentive that was available in July is no longer available. Oh and did you get the $2k Audi loyalty discount as part of your deal? I'm wondering if 20% off is achieveble without it.I live in Charlotte and nearby dealers are VERY motivated to get rid of 2019 e-trons. Like, “just name a price” motivated.

I've been shopping for one as well. With the 2021's announced already, I will not be buying a 2019 unless the discounts increase to 25% or so. Maybe 20% off if a 2020 sportback becomes available at that price. That is before fed and state incentives. I don;t think that will happen, which is fine for me, I don't need it right now. Unless you need a car right now, I would suggest shooting for a deal like dcchristopher posted above me. About 20% off MSRP.I am thinking about getting a 2019 e-torn prestige.

I got all of the discounts I mentioned and I bought it yesterday. The other dealer (who had given me an identical offer but their car didn’t have the Cold Weather Package) was all pissed and even drunk texted me last night. The funny thing is they (claim that they) could have done a dealer to dealer transfer on the car I ended up buying ... at the SAME price. I’ve bought 13 cars in 21 years and that’s the first time I’ve heard they can do that without paying MSRP for it. That means Audi has given the word to just dump them. Meh, I love the car. It has a ton of tech. The range is manageable.Did you buy in July or August? I've been watching advertised prices and one dealer was advertising 16K off MSRP in July, but now has only $14K off MSRP.

That’s the best attitude to have ... “I don’t have to have it”! That’s the only way to have the upper hand in negotiations. Dealers are desperate to sell whatever they have because Germany hasn’t been exporting cars during their shutdown. I think it doesn’t hurt to ask for 25% and stay in the dealership until they come down. 10% has become automatic. 20-25% is probably the target range. Keep in mind they’re giving away 0% @ 72 months and you’ll get $7,500 back at tax time. So long as you drive off at or below $60K (Prestige), you’re doing great. Just check out used car prices out there.I've been shopping for one as well. With the 2021's announced already, I will not be buying a 2019 unless the discounts increase to 25% or so.

I suspect that when it comes time to sell 3 or more years from now, the 2021 model year is going to be more sought after by buyers. A small increase in range, but more importantly, hopefully Audi will iron out some of the problems in the first model year. I think the 2021 is supposed to have a new MMI electronics system.
It depends on your area, demand, availability, trim, condition, CPO, etc. But here in central TX, ~58k is a good target for a CPO 2019 E-Tron Prestige. You can check KBB.com and it will show you what they are selling for, based on your build. In this example, $55k-62k is the fair market range.Hi, all. What do you all think people should be paying for a used/cpo e-tron? I've seen a few as low as $52k, with most examples hovering around the 55k-58k mark.
Nicely done! Agreed. I'd definitely say it's worthwhile to run numbers on both new and used. Depending on various factors, one may work out better. Especially with incentives and 0% APR still hanging around.We just purchased a new 2019 Prestige and by the time you factor in their discount, my $2k discount from USAA and the $7500 Federal tax credit, my price was just $2k over your used price.
If you can get a 2019 new, they're offering deep discounts.
Sounds nice. Would you mind to share break down of your numbers?We just purchased a new 2019 Prestige and by the time you factor in their discount, my $2k discount from USAA and the $7500 Federal tax credit, my price was just $2k over your used price.

Costco member has 10% off MSRP. That's a big one. Your deal didn't include Costco?I think if you're a Costco member, there may be another $2k discount through their auto-buying program (like I had with USAA).
