Would like to buy a Q5, but the dealer says there are no deals to be had because of high demand

The Audi dealer says he could give us 10% off any other model, but not the Q5 as they are in such high demand - do you think this is true? The delivery time is five months. We have considered going through...

Did I get a good part-exchange deal for a new Audi TT?
