New poster here, been lurking for a bit and am getting fed up with my 2017 Sportwagen with it's third trip to the dealership for a random misfire code, along with small other niggling things. Went and drove a 2.0T Elite last week and really liked the feel, the steering, the overall chassis and drive. Didn't love the grabby brakes [I can get used to that though] or the transmission much [it felt slower to respond but then again I'm a manual guy].
My question is basically what else did you drive/think about and are you happy with the purchase? Pretty sure I will lease but there is only one manual in my state [MA] though there are 6 in CT/NY which is a short [150mi] drive for me so I want to talk to the local dealer absolutely last when I'm ready to pull the trigger but pretend I'm not that interested [the car dealer game].
Also, curious about waiting for the 2020s and seeing if that will drive down the costs/increase lease cash for the sitting inventory, as the dealer that I spoke to said they don't order cars and are given allocation, so finding a manual is going to be a pain no matter what.
Thanks!
