The $100 gift card lured me in to Audi, it had to have been summer 2013 since my son was not born yet. Sales guy said if it would be ok, can you take the car out on your own, and bring it back when you're done (this is after I mentioned the $100 offer)? I'll be glad to help you with the certificate, it's just that we're so busy I'd rather stay here at the dealership, if you don't mind. So I got a thorough test drive of the A6 (we're not talking say under 50 miles), I remember it had optional LED headlamps which I thought were very cool. It had zero feel no matter what setting I put it in, and the price tag was already $75k. What is it for 2019 when we say it went up another 10k? And would it have more feel than the 2013 did? I remember it was adjustable so I chose the sportiest settings possible, but it didn't help.

good explanation but the lease terminology still bugs me - just different to be confusing. dumbed down:

'residual' - trade-in price known at START of lease.
'money factor' - interest rate
'capitalized cost' - negotiated price

Correct on all counts!
