So I figured I'd give a quick update so far:
Delivery experience at Legacy West was awesome and top-notch. Props to the team over there. We went over the vehicle together and they had actually inspected it prior to my arrival and found some stuff that I might have overlooked in my excitement to get the car. Everything is pretty minor with the exception of the center console sliding glass door not working properly (it seems wobbly and won't stay shut--they already were on the case to get that fixed prior to my arrival. Service may need a part or two before they come fix it).
The car is amazing to drive. I think everyone knows that already so I won't rehash all of that. The build quality of my car is excellent overall. It's also very solid and quiet with no squeaks, rattles, wind noise, etc.
The software seems pretty good out of the gate (which has always been my biggest fear--along with the keyfob). I did have one strange quirk during the ride home, however. SiriusXM along with all the other streaming services literally completely disappeared for one of the legs of my trip home which was odd. We set up Sirius with some presets during the orientation. It worked great. Then started the car up to go home to leave and literally the entire existence of Sirius and all streaming services disappeared from the radio menu and the settings menu as if they never existed. I was stuck listening to broadcast radio! However, after parking the car (and presumably a period of sleep for the car) everything reappeared the way it was originally. The radio beat my expectations for sound quality which was a pleasant surprise.
Now for 1 disappointment that caught me off guard: Homelink is unavailable currently. It appears it's both a software issue AND physical hardware module that's not in the car and will have to be installed at a later date by the mobile techs. Should I start the Homelink Friday thread? Lol! I think the Gravity Android Auto Thursday thread will need to be (re)created as well for old times' sake! I already knew going into this that AA would not be available. It looks as though the same goes for CarPlay too at the moment.
As for the key: I'm currently carrying the fob (which I'm used to doing). I am having to physically press the lock and unlock buttons to enter and exit the car. I'm not sure I trust the proximity feature yet. I do wish there was a feature like on my Audi where you can keep it in your pocket and touch a certain spot on the handle to lock/unlock. I tried pushing on the handle to get it to pop out but that didn't work. (I feel like I had read something about the Air doing that--feel free to chime in). If there's a way of successfully locking/unlocking like my former Audi, please let me know. Also, I was told that Phone as a Key is currently not working and will come in a future update, FYI. You can, however, lock and unlock the car from the app as expected.
I plan to drive the car tomorrow and report back on any other observations. I'm also happy to answer any questions anyone has.
