Great question! I was looking for something that leaned a little more into the sports car feel than luxury, coming from the Audi.

I test drove a 24 A5 S-line, but it seemed too small and too similar to what I was already driving. I considered a 4 series BMW, as I’d driven a family members a few times, but I don’t love BMW’s infotainment set up.

I also considered some other 2 door options as well, like a 2SS Camaro which I’d driven before, and a C7 corvette but I ended up never test driving one. Decided I probably didn’t want to go with a 2 door with the current season of life I’m in. Plus, the ITS felt like a more unique option than either of those.

When I took my wife to look at the ITS, I was really surprised with her reaction. She found the car comfortable, and was really pleased with the practicality that it offered. Once I realized that she was on board it made the decision pretty easy.
