Base R Msrp is around 36k. That's for dsg. Manual will be. Around $1200 less and get it at invoice even less. So 33k is doable.

The radio and nav upgrade is just a rumor right now. We will see if that actually happens.

Have you reviewed any new espresso machines recently?

I'll see what others offer I guess. One more quote like that and I'll smash my dick in a car door, proceed to write a $6k check to have my R painted reflex silver, and stay in it until I die.
why not do a vinyl wrap for cheaper.

I wish I had got the CVT every day though. SF Bay Area isn't the place to have a manual. What's done is done, so i'll just enjoy the manual when i can, which is very rare occasions when there is no traffic.
I think the Cobb Tuner will fix a lot of this for me. For $650. The problem is 1st gear is so short, its kinda hard to get going quick from a stop, because you have to shift in like 1.5 seconds. I think having a little more power available in every gear will make the shifting less frequent somehow. Only at 400 miles though, gotta wait a while longer.
And I do plan to get the Bren Tuning file to put on the Cobb once I have it. Supposedly it offers twice the gains of the COBB shelf file, (+40hp vs +20hp) and is safer also. You send them a few logs and they custom make it accurate for your car. For another $200 on top of your Cobb Accessport price.

I actually called a place about it today. The first one ballparked it at $3500. I thought "dang, I was hoping to spend $2k tops if I do it at all. I better call another place." So I did and this place said $6500. No joke. $6500.

For vinyl!?!??!?!! Brah, you could wrap it yourself panel by panel and save fucking thousands.
A local e90 guy did it with no prior experience. The only time he needed help was for the hood and it wasn't because it was difficult, per se, but because it makes life easier when trying to take all the air bubbles out and keeping the creases to a minimum.

Yeah, off the chain expensive for wrap. Unreal. The guy that does clear bra for my dealer just got back to me and estimated $1500. That I can live with.

I would pay that. A roll big enough to cover my car is 400-500 from 3M alone. Then there's the tool kit which runs you roughly 150 on eBay for decent stuff. You're under 1k in labor for a job that's extremely time consuming.

He did clarify "no jams" so maybe that helps keep labor cost down.

Depends on the film thickness + color
Gloss or matte black wont be the same price as a metallic chrome color

Where can I get a sense of what difference that would be?

What were you planning on having him wrap it in, reflex silver type of color, right? I Would call and ask about the specifics (Is it 3m or from a similar respective company?).

Yeah, as close to reflex silver as possible. I think this guy only uses 3M but I can be wrong about that. If it's not the good stuff I probably won't do it. It's not cheap but I do have a little tax money and bonus money that I was just planning on saving up so I might treat myself since there is no way I can get a wrx without losing my shirt. Makes sense to dump more money into a car that had me by the balls, right?
