Trading in S4 for GS F Sport
I'll be trading in my '10 S4 today and leasing a '14 GS F sport
MSRP is 59,368
Invoice 55,689
Cap cost price: 50,898 (after 2k lease rebate)
Residual 67%
27m at 10k/yr
0.000425 MF
0 down drive off will be about $510 before taxes
Sound like a good deal?

it's the 2014 model year and I believe they are trying to clear them off the lot
This is probably why residuals are lower at 67% compared to 2015 at 72% for 27m and 10/yr
seems like a great lease deal to me.
Although this is my first lexus and my wife will be the main driver.

This is my first time leasing and I think it'll save $$ over the long run vs buying and paying tax on the full amount as I have a 2yr cycle for switching cars.
I'll miss the DSG transmission and responsiveness of the supercharged V6.

And that is with zero down.

Oh it's more than just the badges. The FSport drives totally different than the non-FSport in Sport+ mode. I switched from a Premium to FSport in 5 months into my lease because of that.
Just don't use any harsh cleaning/detailing products on the wheels, the paint is very soft, and absolutely no buffing the wheels, not on the FSport wheels.

Nope, really nice custom paint job. I laaaike it.
The price is good $50.8 with rebate, so without the rebate its $52.8, which very good.
Do you know how much Tax are you going to pay? FYI some states they have a TAX break, for example in TX some dealerships have TAX pool which allows them not to collect the full %, I paid for GS only 1.5% tax, my wifes accord we only pay 2% Tax, in Texas its 6.5% sales tax rate.
You may also qualify for the TAX break for the Trade In. I would ask all these questions.

I would've saved so much on taxes all these years if I had leased instead of purchasing.
If I purchased instead of lease, I would not get the 2k lease rebate. So 52.8k seems about a fair market price for a 2014 model.
