Hey Ed, glad you asked that I hadn’t compared them lately. It’s only $5k, on the build it site from 60 1/2 to 65 1/2. You all may laugh, but this car is actually for my wife as the primary, and she does not care at all for the M40 “loud mufflers”. She does like the zip of the 2.0 turbo of our Tiguan. The Xline we drove last night on paper is a bit faster but I really didn’t feel that during my short time behind the wheel.
I almost felt a little immature putting it in sport mode with her beside me so I really didn’t run it through the gears either. We are both getting up there in the years and the “what’s the rush” thing is setting in a bit. I always thought old folks drove slow because of impairments, that may not always be the case!
BTW the .9 financing/60mo and 1.9/72 mo is in its 4th month and each month they tell dealers it ends at months end. End of year may be different though he says.
