Which build? I need your help!
It's safe to say I've looked at to many cars and my mind has gone to mush. With my new order cancelled I'm scouring the country for the closest options and I think it comes down to these 2 if the price is right (although i wish I had the patience to wait for the MY2021).
Both cars are Dravit with black wheels/grill and fairly loaded, and the msrp's are almost the same. I really wanted the Tartufo Merino, but I'm leaning to thinking there's more value in the Advanced Drivers Package. The Track is nice to have but really just bigger brakes and I'm not tracking the car. So more goodies in one, better leather in the other. Help!! What are your thoughts? Thanks in advance! Here are the differences... Car #1 -Leather Dash -Advanced Drivers Package -Cognac Leather (not the two tone dash) -Gesture and Galvanic (I know who cares) Car #2 -Leatherette Dash (Sensitech) -Enhanced Track Package -Tartufo Merino Leather (not the two tone dash) -Parking Assist w/Surround Cam (but not the Driver assist pro stuff) |

#1 for sure. That's the Excellence Package and basically comes with everything other than adaptive suspension (an option I couldn't live without) and the upgraded oil cooler/braking package. The merino leather is nice but if you aren't getting the walknappa leather dash it's a big strike IMO. Plus the cognac is still nice (especially since you don't get the two tone dash with the Excellence Package).

I think I’m going with option 1, adding a rear diffuser and rear bumper trim in gloss black, the parts are marked up but at least it’s residualized in the lease so really paying half price. On a build of $73,400 the discount is $9332 (including current crappy incentives).
So if I take this there’s no Merino for me Ironically a local dealer jumped back in today and said he has an allocation for a new build but I don’t trust it now and it’s a smaller discount that I still need to wait months for... but would be custom. |

Yes the difference in interior (perceived) quality is much better with the walknappa leather dash in my opinion. For me it was the only way to get the all black (not two tone) dash when I opted cognac for the seats. I hate the two tone look.

We’re in the same boat on the two tone. The car is in Laval, so I guess I’m going for a drive! Where did you get your ceramic coating?

Amazing service, and very fair pricing. I'm in Milton so it worked out well for me (dropped it off on a Thursday evening and picked it up Monday morning...they do shuttle service too although probably not all the way to Oakville). There's another awesome place in Mississauga that I've dealt with called Pure Auto. They do everything from ceramic coating to tinting to full custom wraps.
