$69k CAD. Thats $52.5k
Damn. Should i accept? They want $9k more than i offered.
No audi care.
Cpo warranty.
I think i can squeeze another 5k down i think.
So I did a little bit of research for you (I buy and sell every couple months so needless to say I kinda enjoy it
![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
) and here is what I found out/recommend -
1. Technik is canadian model for the US Prestige model which is top of the line and adds the minimum premium of 5-6 grand easy than the premium plus (progressiv). So in that car lane assist and automatic stop should be standard (I think) and you have the premium sound as well! So overall you have 8-10k of equity over the base A7 model. Equity is just an operational word here.
2. Value proposition when compared with A6: When I bought the A6 I had the similar dilemma. Everything was same with the 2 cars, well, except the body style but still A7 always had a 8-10K premium. At the same time the hatchback looked awesome and was a headturner and the owner I was talking with said he is used to getting lot of compliments for the car. He said, people thought he was uber rich but in reality was just a normal upper middle class. However, with A6 it is more like a "you have reached there thing". A6 is not flashy. You may ask why I'm even talking about A6 - just to keep things in perspective, value wise. I found A6 delivered more value and a slightly used a6 was more value for money. Having said that I looked and in 40k USD in US can get you a great 2016 A6 progressiv (PP) ever so slightly used. The same dealer whose link you posted has it on for 60k CAD. With your negotiation skills may be you can get them to 50k CAD! and that could be a good deal as well. Value vs Flash, low key(dare I say for A6) vs getting attention. You decide.
3. Resale - You would also need to resale it depending on how long you are planning to retain ownership of the car. It may be difficult to sell it at a price near your purchase price or without a monster depreciation in short term say 2-3 years. Also consider canadian currency fluctuation and the sheer size of the US market (US is pretty big market vs canadian). I know you are not a rookie buyer but I felt I just needed to say things.
4. The deal itself - I think a new A7 Prestige would be a great deal at 50k USD, though I would miss the new car warranty but nonetheless it would have emmisions warranty and CPO warranty for 2 years. But if it were me, I would have thought twice about buying because of the lower currency rate currently (1.3 vs 1 just couple years ago - CAD reached further) and the resale market size.
5. Final thoughts - Ask for 48K USD if possible (50k is still a great deal), pay with credit cards to maximize points and may be negotiate the maintenance package. I think in next couple weeks the car is going to the auction if you don't buy it or dealer is not agreeing on the price. The deal is a good one. All the best.
PS: if the deal fells through - look out for BMW 2018 340GT (hatchback) it is a 3.0 gasser and drives great (Probably not nearly as good looking as A7).
