Hi all -

Shopping for e-tron SUV premium plus with the blackout package, some other knick knacks, like all season floor mats, cargo cover, welcome lighting. Just signed initial quote for $73.5k (includes sales tax 6.25% in Texas and local county tax of about $150, title about $340, and other small fees). So out the door price. This includes $6250 Audi incentive, and $2000 Costco allowance. 0% financing for 60 months. This before the $7500 tax credit.

Deposited $1000 since they are bringing the car over from another city and will be here mid week. So I can back out of the deal if necessary. Paper work not signed.

Is this a good deal?

Thanks!

Finally did $13250 off MSRP before the $7500 tax rebate. Also got good deal on 8 year extended warranty. Wife is ecstatic with the car so that’s all that matters. Thanks.

How did you manage to get that amount off MSRP? They are asking 92k for a prestige in my area (las vegas)??

Mine is a Premium Plus, not Prestige. I used online service (CarsDirect, TrueCar) to get a price for the specs I wanted and played one dealer off the other dealer, to get a lower price.

It helps if (1) there are multiple dealers in your area, and (2) the dealer thinks you are not in love with a particular specific car (we were flexible on exterior color) - competing dealer had it in white exterior color, which we would never buy, but we lead the dealer that had the car we wanted (Manhattan Grey with Okapi Brown) think we were going to buy the white one.

Our new Premium Plus will cost us well under $60k in the end (at 0% Audi Financing) - that includes the 8 year extended warranty, sales tax, registration, title, etc. - at $74k, minus $7k trade in, and $7500 tax rebate next year.
