Do you know if they will have the new Bose Performance Series system that comes with the 2017 Q60 as one of the changes?

The 17 Q50 gets a new Bose system. I think it gets 2 more speakers if I remember right.

I love the exhaust note from FI! The RS400 needs a diffuser to go along with the exhaust.

Turbo car or not, that's an extreme amount of extra Tq gained by just an exhaust. Did they also tune it as well?

Test drove a regular 3.0t sport AWD yesterday, really liked the engine!

Man do I wish this car came in a stick, think I'd be driving a new car within the next few months if it did.

Had the dealership estimate my trade (which I'd likely never do) and offer me a sales price for a 3.0t AWD with sport pkg, but as expected, trade value was too low and sales price was entirely too high (~$46K) for what I'd be willing to pay. That said, spent 0 time researching packages and good sales prices, I suspect I could get them much lower if I was serious.

All in all, when the dealer asked me what they could do to get me in a new Q50, my only honest answer was "put my transmission in one." Seriously just not ready to let go of my 6MT, which 3 1/2 yrs and 18,000 miles since buying it new, has got tons of life left in it.

Might be ready in another few years, at which point, either I'd have outgrown this whole stick shift thing, or I'm going to have even a harder time finding a new car than when I had to search for me 6MT

If you look at the dyno numbers at the end of the video, the higher figures are with a downpipe (DP) as well, so it's really not that surprising on a twin turbo car.

So just got a call from my dealer and they offered me a "3.0T Premium" for 349$ a month lease with zero out of pocket, and taking my 09 G37X in trade. I told then if they can get it to $300 I'll do it.

Do you owe anything on your G37x?

Wouldn't your car be the equivalent of like an 11k down payment? Just doesn't make sense to lease a car and giving up a car you own?

You need to find out how much you owe on your car. Then subtract that from its value(probably 10-14k) and that is how much equity you have in the car. Whatever that value is would be like a down payment. So if your cars equity is $7200 on a 36 mo lease then you are actually paying $200 more per month, so $550 mo. Run the #'s and you will know if it is a good deal. Leasing is just math.
