Congrats !!! So to confirm...it's the 3.3T AWD Dynamic (limited edition)...in Havana Red. What color seat stitching?

Yes, that's exactly it. The seats are black w/ red stitching. It looks awesome. I would have gotten a Sport, but I fell in love w/ the Seats.

The sport has the same seats...

Was just going to say...LOL.

This is what you paid $750 more over the Sport...

• Michelin Pilot Sport 4S summer tires
• Performance brake pads
• Unique electronically controlled suspension tuning
• Upgraded thermal capacity
• Heated steering wheel (AWD only)
• Tire Mobility Kit (TMK) for reduced weight

and now she is reconsidering.

They do? The pics of this sport do not have the same seats. It's got a different color stitching. I like the contrast of black and red.

Yes, comes in both. In fact it seems like red is more prevalent.

It’s an option.

Also...hate to tell you...you paid to NOT have a spare tire. You have a tire mobility kit.

Hopefully you can back out of the deal if needed.

Ok, well I am not waiting anymore I'm happy w/ my decision and it's AWD, which seems to be the unicorn car...can't seem to find them anywhere.

I know. That is the one sacrifice

There is room in the trunk for a spare tho. I might have to figure that one out

Sacrifice for what?

Your exact car in Sport trim is out there. So you save $750 and you get a spare. Did you really want all that other stuff (meant for taking the car to the track)?

FWIW I think the dynamic is worth $750 over the sport. I think you have the right choice. I just wanted to be clear for other users that you can also get those seats in the sport model.

But is she going to track the car? If not it’s pointless. More money and no spare.

Sacrifice spare for weight

Tough crowd today

I don’t think she cares about that.

Where is a red AWD Sport w/ red stitching? Did I miss something?

Most dealers sell spares as an accessory. Not having a spare from the factory is not a deal breaker, but getting a spare would be part of the deal for me.

It has been five years since I needed a spare, but on a cold raining night and a gashed sidewall, it sure made a difference.

They are just jealous since you have a car within reach and they don't.

 

[alabaaster]

I don’t think she cares about that.

No I don't care about the weight, i would rather have a spare. But I can't change a tire anyway LOL
