How much do you need to make to comfortably afford a brand new Audi RS Q8, aka the Lamborghini Urus? My final build in this beautiful red colorway comes out to a total of $151,000, but with a 7% tax rate, that's $162,000. After putting down 20% or $32,000, you need to borrow $129,000 at a 7% interest rate over five years or 60 months, which means your monthly payment is going to be around $2,500. The Audi Q8 is quite expensive to insure, it cost around $3,000 per year or $251 per month. And if you're curious, you can see if you can save money on your own car insurance or see how much your car is worth by clicking the link in my bio. Apparently, the Audi RS Q8 will cost around $14,500 for maintenance and repairs during the first 10 years of ownership, so that means it's around $121 per month. And then we have the gas spend per month, which ranges from $130 to $200 for most Americans, we're going to use $170. This brings your total monthly cost to around $3,100, which should be around 10% of your income, which means you need to make around $372,000 to comfortably afford a brand new Audi RS Q8.
