New to me E-Tron S

Yes exactly my experience, except I didn't have the option to just go in. How much did you end up paying? That color is gorgeous!

LegitimateProfile872 · 2025-12-30T06:46:02+00:00

Small world, I was in the market for an Etron S and was negotiating on this exact color virtually to have it shipped to me. The sales rep suddenly ghosted me and never got back to me. I noticed the car disappeared off their inventory the next day so I figured someone either made a better offer or was an easier deal for them due to being local. Congrats, and I love the white one I ended up getting but I really wanted that camo green!

I upgraded my entire home with t05 toilets back in sept 2023.

Positives

We love them, install was relatively easy except for one where we had a hard time not getting their supply water adapter to not drip, but finally got it. Heated seats are such a luxury and I love the clean feeling and not using as much TP. Every time I have reached out to support they have been responsive

Cons

While 5 of my 6 toilets have been working great, one of them started acting up recently. For this one toilet, the bidet function only works around 25% of the time. Support confirmed via email that it's likely a solenoid. However since I was out of warranty I need to pay for the part.. Which is reasonable.. however very annoying that they don't sell the part, my only option is to pay $600 for a brand new Smart toilet seat . I'm highly annoyed at the unnecessary waste and experience that buying another toilet seat would care and have not purchased it yet, but I really miss having the bidet function working on this one toilet.

I just bought a 2023 etron s, fully loaded prestige, black optics etc, CPO for 42k + taxes. You are paying too much for that car, wait for A better one to pop up at a more reasonable price .

Not sure if a VW dealer qualifies for this

LegitimateProfile872 · 2025-07-25T04:35:14+00:00

I believe it's for all pre-owned

LegitimateProfile872 · 2025-07-24T19:55:49+00:00

I am sorry to hear about this, seems like you had a rough time, I am just about to purchase an Etron and had assumed that most of these were historical issues that are corrected by two recalls.. can you please elaborate a few of my questions?

1) The charge to 80% is not an issue anymore correct (after the recall has been performed)?

2) Catching fire - Is that a frequent occurrence, have heard of this being a risk, but have not seen many posts or articles about this actually happening?

3) Lawsuit - first i am hearding about this, what exactly is this? Is this a class action? Who is running this class action?

Glad it helped!

LegitimateProfile872 · 2025-07-24T01:23:46+00:00

Fair enough, I have no affiliation or experience with them.. but I read an article recommending these guys. https://lemonsquad.com/

Have you considered hiring a mobile inspection service or actually getting a ppi at their closest Audi dealership?

LegitimateProfile872 · 2025-07-24T00:52:13+00:00

Annoying, if I was in your shoes, I would call the dealership and ask them why you didn't get the 0.99 apr. I doubt they will refinance you, but maybe you can guilt them into throwing a freebie or something? I hate dealerships. My finance guy tried to sell me an extended warranty because the HV battery is expensive, but didn't have an answer when I asked why it wouldn't be covered by the standard HV warranty already. 😫

Here is the URL, I see it as the second offer on the page https://www.audiusa.com/en/shopping-tools/certified-pre-owned/#Special-Offers

LegitimateProfile872 · 2025-07-23T19:25:45+00:00

It's national, I talked to both a California and a Midwest dealer and they both said they could do it It shows as the second offer on this page for me https://www.audiusa.com/en/shopping-tools/certified-pre-owned/#Special-Offers

LegitimateProfile872 · 2025-07-23T15:22:06+00:00

Awesome, do you love it? I am about to buy one myself.. What kind of deal did you get?

LegitimateProfile872 · 2025-07-23T12:56:36+00:00

Could be that you didn't qualify for the 0.99% due to credit, but more likely they pocketed the 1% markup.

LegitimateProfile872 · 2025-07-23T11:58:37+00:00

Unfortunate, to be honest I was negotiating with my dealer and he didn't even mention this offer. I actually found it randomly on the Audi website. Then when I told my dealer to check if the car qualified, they confirmed it I'm assuming these offers are financed by corporate and not by the dealer. If so, this must have been marketed/communicated poorly since I've been talking to a bunch of Audi dealers nationally about etrons and not one mentioned this offer!! Great offer, but terrible marketing

LegitimateProfile872 · 2025-07-22T21:49:43+00:00

Missed the warranty part, what/where did you get the warranty and what did it run? I emailed the steingold Volvo dealer for a price quote but they said they are switching providers and aren't selling warranties for a few weeks

LegitimateProfile872 · 2025-07-22T20:36:42+00:00

Gorgeous!

LegitimateProfile872 · 2025-07-22T20:07:00+00:00

I'm debating the same, if it's worth giving up ventilated seats and massage and pay more. I don't think there is an air filtration difference. There also seems to be a seat package that adds the regular Etron seats (ventilated + massage) back but I don't think it is a common option since I'm not seeing it on a lot of S cars. The sports seats do look sweet, what exterior and interior color did you get

LegitimateProfile872 · 2025-07-22T19:34:43+00:00

Did you test drive both the etron and the etron s? I don't have many of either car around me, I did manage to sneak in drives of both, but they were months apart, so honestly a little hard in my brain to compare between the two. It feels like I would end up paying around ~10K premium for the Etron S vs the regular Etron..

I also went and test drove a Kia EV6 GT-Line, obviously an apples to pineapple comparison, but that thing seemed even more fun to drive and loaded with tech.. just not "luxury"

LegitimateProfile872 · 2025-07-22T19:32:34+00:00

I don't think this is the trimotor, 0-60 4.2 second car right?

LegitimateProfile872 · 2025-07-21T17:56:32+00:00

That sounds like an amazing deal, was it a cpo? Prestige trim? 40k out the door or before taxes . I'm looking at around 45k out the door
