Hey guys, I've been lurking here for a while and I was about to place an order for an A3, but I'm now thinking that I might wait to purchase until the Quattro model arrives. In the meantime, I'd like to lease an A3, but I can't seem to find any pricing. The deals for the A4 leases are attractive at $369/month for an A4 2.0T Quattro for 24 months. How are the A3 lease offers in comparison?

Also, I've never leased a car. Are lease rates negotiable?

If you order, it will take 3 to 4 months if your dealer can't find a car you want already on the ground or in transit. Lease rates change every month.

As of last month, a lease on mid-range priced A3 2.0T was around $300 + tax for 36 months on a 10K per year lease with $3K down. Obviously rates change by car/miles/amount down.<ul><li><a href="http://www.edmunds.com/advice/leasing/articles/43093/article.html">lease basics</a></li></ul>
