Looking to buy a 911, so my leased cars must get a new home. A trade for a 997 <2006 with less than 60K miles would also be an option. Same color as the SQ5 preferred.

This is a 2016 SQ5 in absolute flawless condition. I have really cared for this car and it has only been handwashed by myself on a regular basis. You won't find a better SQ5 anywhere!

The car comes with a service agreement for 45000 miles.

The car was serviced last week and this week brand spanking new Pirelli P-Zeroes will be installed.

I am buying out the car from my lease to sell it. My sales price is below the KBB value for a car of this condition and just covers my buy-out cost.

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions: kim(@)rasmussen-usa.net

Is that a refundable down payment to Audi or thats the down payment that you paid to get lower monthly payments? Lease is for another 14 months so it comes out to $250 per month extra. So its $918 per month to drive a car thats today worth around $40K.

The $3500 can be negotiated. The amount is for me to recover some of the downpayment I put on the car when I entered the lease agreement. It is negotiable ro some degree.

The current buy out value of the car with the lease company is around $42K if a purchase is preferred.

Also - just a note. VW/Audi leases are non-transferable meaning your name will always be on the lease (and you'll be liable) even if someone else "takes it over." Safer to just sell it. I had to do the same with a B8.5 S4 a couple years ago.

Let me know if you end up selling it and want to see my car. Thanks!

Have you gotten a trade in value toward a 911 on this? I just traded in my wife's 2016 nearly identical SQ5 with 28,000 miles and the dealer gave me $42,000.00 for it, so your buyout is not bad.

I haven't considered trading it in, but that may be worth considering. I changed the add so that I am selling the car rather than transferring the lease. Based on the input from aj.anderson I have reconsidered transferring the lease.

probably for the best - didn't mean to rain on your parade! I just had to deal with it once and learn the hard way. Looks like you may be in the clear if you can make that happen.

I certainly appreciate your inputs. It has potentially saved me a lot of headaches.

What are your thoughts on the SQ5 while you have owned it? Considering ordering one. Any issues?

No issues at all. This car can do everything you want from a car; pretty roomy, comfy on longer trips, decent fuel consumption, great engine sound, pretty fast and not least the Bang & Olufsen stereo sound very crisp.

Go for it; get one (preferrably mine). ;-)

Great vehicle - I can recommend this model My wife drives a 2014 SQ5 that now has 45K miles on it (4 years old) and its been dead nuts reliable. Ours has the Supercharged engine in it (not sure if the 2016 has Twin Turbos or the Supercharger) but the acceleration is RIGHT NOW with none of the lag any of the TT's have. It handles and stops better than my 2015 BMW X4 with M package and 3.5L engine. My wife can leave me off the stoplight with it when I'm in my 991S (manual) - though I eventually catch her but only if I'm paying attention and not let her get too far ahead. The only negative on this series is the MMI Interface to run the multimedia center is clunky, otherwise its a superb vehicle, equal to a Macan S at a lot less $$$$ for this 2016 example. GLWS

Thanks for the kind words. This truly is a great car, and who ever buys it will get an as-new car much cheaper than a new, and certainly much cheaper than a Macan (which is based on the same platform).
