Is there anything missing from the E1 that isn’t on the Prestige? I know the additions but wanted to make sure if I dropped my Prestige that I wouldn’t be missing something off the E1. If some dealers are stuck with E1’s and will shave a couple of grand off I might be tempted.
My car is on a boat not but not due until June. Status still says “leaving factory” so no idea when I’ll get my $1000 back considering it’s actually “En Route”
Tempted by the E1 but given June if just around the corner, maybe I just wait

The only things not on the E1 that you may have optioned on your prestige would be the towing package and the rear seat airbags / illuminated seatbelt receptacles. With the E1, you'd be getting several exclusive features including the Daytona Grey paint, edition one puddle lamps, interior trim upgrades, edition one wheels, and night vision assist.

I purchased the Edition One a week ago for $2,000 off of my reserved price. Also received the Loyalty rebate $750 (own 2014 Q5).
My plan was to test drive the vehicle and think it over next day before deciding to purchase or not. At least that is what my better half told me to do.
Anyway, they gave the usual spiel about brand new model and selling at msrp and ask what it would take? I told them $2000 off and very surprised they said yes because definitely I was expecting a counter offer.(no haggling at all
). I took the car home that afternoon and also took advantage of 1.9% financing. Very pleasant experience.

Sounds like I need to waver more with my dealer.
1.9% for 66 months is awful nice. I was planning on paying cash for mine but 1.9% is tough to turn down. Might a 50/50.

In my view, an offer of 1.9 percent by Audi Financial is another expression of Audi's belief that the e-tron will not maintain a decent secondhand value. Sales must be sluggish. I should prefer a better money factor and residual than is being offered. Audi has no need to do this as long as leases significantly outnumber purchases. Look for financing deals when the pent-up demand of early adopters and those of us with FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out) have been satisfied. I anticipate six months from now dealer lots will have a fair amount of e-trons for sale with better terms.

...or.... ..The entire car industry is slowing and money is super cheap right now. For God's sake the F150 is going for 0% interest right now. What is America coming to!
The Etron is special order, it's not going to pile up in great numbers for a while.

This was after the Audi voucher for my E1 reservation. I did around 50/50 for the 1.9% financing. You can always payoff early.
