For the extra...let's say...$4,500 I would get the following:
  • 22 extra bhp and an additional radiator
  • Sports exhaust
  • DCT instead of Auto
  • Front PDC...as well as rear
I talked to my dealer today and can change the order...BUT...I would lose the locked in "Holiday Joy" credit of $2,500 that I already have in my current order...
The interest rate that goes with the Holiday Joy credit on the "i" is 4.9%
The interest rate on a 2011 "is" is unknown at this time...

SO...should I go with the current order and drive my "i" through Germany in 7 weeks happy in the knowledge that 22bhp and a DCT are not that big of a deal and not worth ~$7,000...OR...should I look under the floorboards for a few extra pennies and push for the "is"...so that I don't spend the next 5 years regretting it?

Thoughts?
wow! 2011 convertible will be swell, le mans blue, but on top of 51K, 9K more seems insane price hike. u get leather free for $1400, difference is still 7-8k, am I right?

335iS, coupe vs convertible, equally loaded..advise?
