$65K OTD too low for the dealer?

[JortEnthusiast]

What accessories did you get for $9,000?

+ $1k delivery

Ended up being $49k.

$52k includes the mark-up and whatever the dealer cash price accessories were. Which I don't have with me and are currently somewhere in my parents house half a country far lolsies.

They did scratch the car after they detailed it though, that for sure wasn't charged and they fixed it for free.

Just reiterating I did not build this car, I found it on the lot as is.

Ah okay, the safety & tech package for the 2.0 is a pricey bit.

Curious question, since you spent almost $60k, why didn't you look at getting a 3.0?

Interior sound - quieter (& better) in the 2.0. I've rented 3.0/premium and though they were fun to drive, I grew tired of having to hear the loud engine steadily going 70 on the highway.

Sport mode - 3.0/premium didn't really feel or hear much of a difference, it was very subtle. Versus 2.0, is a very massive difference. It's like you just straight piped a Hyundai SUV (bad example). I can choose when I want to hear the pops! Although, I have sport mode enabled 95% of the time, keeps the 100+ mile drives to the city entertaining.

Gas mileage (I get why its affected) - When I had the 3.0, I averaged a gas mileage of 19 on the highway. 2.0, I hold 30 highway right now. Don't have to do so many pitstops.

I love the 2-tone leather, personally think it absorbs the heat or cold better instead of pure leather seats.

Only thing that irks me is the seats are moved manually & sound system lost some speakers and sounds weaker (2.0 has 4, 3.0 has 10).

I might sound like a default Andy, but it's a perfect car for a daily driver. If I want to relax, I can easily cruise in peace, or if I want to zoom, I can switch on sport mode and gap Prius's at lights lol.

Different strokes for different folks. although I hear you can turn off ASD (active sound design) with bimmercode to stop it pumping fake exhaust sounds in the cabin.

Great job on all your research. Sounds like you got it for all the right reasons! I really take for granted paying less taxes. Seems like the more govt spends = less you get (for your money) .
