I bought my 6. First brand new car for me (well, that was mine to drive, anyway). I have ever so slight buyer’s remorse, but that’s because of the loan - not the car. The car is fantastic. The payments, not so much.
I have right around 3,700 miles. Low mileage FTW, I suppose.

Exactly why I don’t buy brand new cars.

Eh, it more than fits into my budget and I am going to pay it off 1-2 years early. $296.79 is a pretty decent payment and was right around my goal when I bought the car anyway.

I came so close to buying a new 6 last spring. I found just the right one (Blue Reflex mica, tan interior, Touring trim) and came with cash in hand to buy it. But on my final test drive, I realized I couldn’t get comfortable in the seats. It felt like my body was pushed away from the back rest and solely resting on the side bolsters. And I’m a very narrow person. Couldn’t figure it out. It really bums me out every time I see one because I really like them. Have you had any comfort issues with the seats?

Slightly, but that’s because I’m a fatass (5"10 and 239 pounds). My friend who is built basically the same as me but has recently lost 60 pounds said the seats were the most comfortable ones he’s ever sat in. The seatback is comfy to me. The side bolsters sometimes feel like they're squeezing my legs, though. More incentive for me to lose weight.

That's actually really cheap!

I’m sure I’m the minority as I’ve never read anyone complaining about this issue. Good for you. Enjoy the car!

that’s crazy cheap for a brand new car. Especially if you’re on track to end early. Impressive.

Only catch is I had to do a 6 year loan. But, I am going to make at least 12 payments of $593.58, which is exactly double. So, that will take the 6 years down to 5. If I’m able, I’ll do more. My goal is to have it paid off after no later than 5 years. Preferably 4 or so.
