N8!, your list of options is almost identical to mine. You did get the 6/75 major component overage and I didn't. I got five year AudiCare thrown in. I also got the Florett Silver and dark walnut trim. My price, out the door, was $60,191 (inclusive of taxes and fees).

Beautiful! I'm right there with your price once I pay cash for the tax, title and license when the car finally arrives at the dealership.

She FINALLY arrived at dealership this past Thur. I went by on Saturday to take a look at it since the dealership hasn't prep'ed, detailed and inspected it yet.

I'll pick it up Mon or Tue when it's ready - it's all bought & paid for except TT&L.

The rims are the only part that I want to improve.. I would have liked to have the 5-spoke "Turbine" rim on the show cars or 19" option like the one below...

Rims seem so subjective and a matter of taste to me. I'm fine with the 18-inch wheels and starfish design that comes with the S-Line package. Didn't want 19-inch in order to keep the ride from being too firm since my wife already feels sport suspension with S-Line risks a harsher ride. The ride, btw, is comfortable even if firm compared to my wife's Lexus RX (duh!).

I also am fine with the 18" rims, just might like something a bit different eventually.

The 18" S-Line 5 spoke is starting to grow on me though.

Do you notice a ride difference between the stock 18s that come with the S-line Package vs the upgraded 19s part of the PRL Package ? Debating between sticking with the stock 18s or spending the 800 for the 19s part the PRL Package.

The 18s for stockers do look nice and I can see people who are not big wheel people keeping them. 5 spoke is classic sport car look and they work well.

That said, I have the split 5 spoke 19s sline and they are nice. The ride quality is not impacted at all between 18 or 19 IMHO. I am changing wheels out to 19 aftermarket for style but keeping the tire size.
