Somehow I didn’t want a topic “hijacking” for this post. I’ve been looking for a new car for a long time. In focus, S5, RS5, S4 Avant, BMW 335i, M3 Coupé, etc… Well… theoretically I can pay the cash. Practically you should calculate the financing. I like to save, with a reason why I can also afford the above car (just the waged background). Well, but I don’t get an invoice. Audi has a “super” now. Rtolle” 2.8% Leasing action. But if I calculate this (with the official computer) for a RS5, then my hair is too high. RS5 Coupé, net 118’850CHF, financial contribution 15’000, 24 months, 15’000km => 2650/Mt. If I calculate this on the 24Mt, then this comes to 87’000CHF, so I pay for 2 years RS5 drive 87kCHF. (Calculation does not look much different for 36Mt) If I take the rate calculation to help, and calculate with above key figures, I come to a kk Alculatory residual value of the RS5 (Fix given by AMAG) of almost 59’200CHF Heisst: For AMAG, a 2 year old RS5 with 30tkm still has a book value of 60kCHF ? What I mean by that, actually it is in this case yes HansWieWurst how deep the leasing rate is, as long as the respective lessors can define themselves a “fantasy residual value” (which one does not see at first sight and is also variable). So simply lower the (visible) interest rate and in the background the res And: How does that work then? I would pay additional tax costs, or would I get something refunded? Somehow the whole leasing extrem suspect is for me. Do I miscalculate, or is it simply pulled over the table? Would be glad to inform you. As I calculate this, the lessor gets 87kCHF from me, can then sell the car for the 80k (see, 80k not the 60k book value of which they in the leasing council e) and earn so 160k of a car net 118k is ? Do I see what not ? Do I have somewhere a thought error ? Is that the same with all brands ? Or is there (depending on the manufacturer) also differences concerning “realistic residual value ” ? PS: If one assumes a realistic residual value of 80kCHF for a 24Mt old RS5 with 30tkm, the leasing rate would have to be 1860CHF ….
