Before I even started emailing dealers, I had an image in my head of what I wanted in the car (stereo, transmission, and colour). I figured that colour and stereo were of lesser importance than getting a feel for the car with the transmission that I wanted. So I started emailing dealers with the hopes that one of them in my area would have one to try. I don't buy anything that I didn't test drive first.
I got an email saying that one was available not only to test drive, but also, to purchase. Once I drove it, I knew that I was hooked. Because I respect my wife, I came back for a second test drive with her. We crunched the numbers with my trade-in and then we were faced with the decision - wait months to receive an order for the exact one that I had envisioned or purchase the car sitting right in front of me. Resistance was futile, I had to have it and I could not let it slip out of my grasp. Owning one now - I have absolutely no regrets.
Not sure if you have driven one yet, but, I think that you will know the right decision once you have done so. As to all of the other stuff, that is your call if you want to wait. I have bought many things that end up being cheaper down the road, but, the sooner you have it, the sooner that you will be getting your money's worth out of it. This car is still in its early stages of popularity with no signs of easing up. I would be shocked to hear of any incentives except for Grad or Military rebates.
I hope this helps.
