I had a 2013 CPO Porsche Panamera S which was about to go out of CPO warranty coverage, wanted a sporty SUV so looked around here in Ocala Florida for a good deal. Found my preferred color in white at a local dealer priced at $34k and change and went in to make a deal. They offered me $40k for the Porsche, which wasn't a bad deal considering retail price is around $45k and it is not an easy car to sell in this neck of the woods. I saved almost $3k in sales taxes by doing the trade in, plus the hassle of selling the Porsche by myself. My edge sport has the navigation package and the safe and smart package, plus I got them to throw in the cargo package worth about $300.
Impressions so far:
Engine: Great performance, eco boost has lots of power at all rpms, surprised how fast this truck is.
Suspension: Best ride I have seen in an SUV, stays flat in the corners, only thing comparable I have driven is Porsche Macan which is smaller and more expensive.
Comfort: Love the seats, way more comfortable than my Panamera. Air conditioning blows colder than my Panamera, which had a V8. Cabin has lots of space, room for golf clubs etc
Tech: Navigation works fine, Sony stereo more than adequate. Standard headlights were weak so I replaced highs and lows with some Phillips Crystalvison Ultra halogen bulbs which are whiter and brighter than standard ones for $40,
Looks: I love the stance and look of this truck, actually prefer it to the 19 Edge ST
Mileage: Not that great, about the same as my Panamera, but I don't do that many miles. I feed it Shell Premium.
Complaints: I like the no fuel cap design, but unless I am doing something wrong, the fuel door does not lock.
Conclusion: Love this truck, glad I bought it, learned a lot from reading many threads here before purchase.
