Overall leasing is ok, if you can offset the costs (write off on taxes). Otherwise you are renting the car from the leasing company, not the dealer.

No worries, just get the 2012/2013 your not going to have a problem. If you are you are they will fix it.
Plus i would NEVER buy an Audi straight out. I would LEASE then buy.
Check out the numbers on Audi's own site.
2013 Audi A4
2.0 TFSI quattro Premium Tiptronic
MSRP: $45,200.00
Lease /w 20,000kms/yr 808.88$/36months + Residual Value: $25,013.35 Buy Back.
Total = 58035.11$ TOTAL (This is including Quebec's CRAZY high tax rate)
Finance 972.62$/60months = 58357.2
ITS MORE expensive to finance directly. If you lease and it has crazy problems and you get into an accident(s) you don't keep the car and give it back to them. If it runs like a charm, keep it and get the CPO extended warranty at the end of the lease.
Yes you'll have to put 30,000$ at the end of the lease or finance it. If you are going to buy an Audi I'm sure you have the money to put away 200$/month during that 36months your leasing it.

Re: Considering 2013 A4 but oil burn issue scares me
I have 2013 A4 and at around 3100KM, my oil level consumption light warning light came on.
I called Audi dealership and they recommended I make an appointment for a oil consumption test. I took my car in and the service rep told me that its not unusual for the car to burn oil during break in period, because the manufacturer's break in oil is thinner. They topped it off for free and now my car is at 4800KM with oil on max levels. No need for consumption test and no issues so far *crossing fingers.

Re: Considering 2013 A4 but oil burn issue scares me
I bought my 2013 audi a4 2 months ago, only has around 1700 + miles on it and the OIL CONSUMPTION LEVEL IS HALF WAY , 
i did call audi and they just told me to stop by the dealership and they will just refill it .. did advise me that once the vechile breaks its 5k mile mark normally the depreciation of the oil will go back to its normal cunsumption level.. Audi does have good service any issues or questions that i have they do try to have a solution for me.. 
I will be taking my 2013 Audi a4 within 2 weeks to get it refilled, and i will let ya know if i get any feedback from the service department.
