Aside from pushing on price, ask for MF they are using (can solve from information provided but lazy this morning). For a 2015 guessing it should be around .0005 or less. (To convert MF to...

Honestly, I think your best bet is to really figure out what you want out of your next car. Your posts have referred to the S4, S6, A6, M3 and ATS-V. That's a pretty wide range from luxury to sport...

Really depends on what you want. From what I've read, the ATS-V should have great power and outstanding handling. However, as you note it will be less than optimal in the snow. Additionally, my...

I think this is about right. Comfort with ADS provides a more compliant ride than non-ADS cars and dynamic is a little stiffer. However, overall the ride in a non-ADS is fine and most are ok...

S5s are more expensive than S4s new so I'd expect the same used.

I think you would pay closer to $52k after discount and factory cash if MSRP is $56k-$57k. Some people will tell you that you could probably do even better than that.

I'd price a new 2016 and want 20% off any deal I could get on new 2016 for a CPO 2014. 2014 is 2 MY old now. Might be surprised that difference between new and CPO isn't as big as you might think.

Also what 10k service interval? I thought all Audi service intervals were 5k, 15k, 25k, etc.

TSB number should be noted on receipt from dealer.

You can wait until you get closer to the end of the warranty to buy one for a shorter term but you end up in the same place. For example I could have purchased a 75k mile warranty when I got closer...
