100% worth it if $2k. Think about how you will use the car. Are you going to sell after 5-10 years? If you look at a 13 vs a 12 mustang (or a 2010 to 2009, etc) prices are around $1-2k more, so you would basically not lose any money, and be driving a nicer car. If $3k, the true cost of ownership is $1-2k over 5-10 years, or $10-20 a month. If you would sell after only a couple of years, I think the value would be about $2-3k more vs. a 17 in 2 years, so you would be about even. If you're keeping it for life, then c'mon, get what you love! You have to drive it every day for the next 20 years!!!
Just FYI, OP followed your advice and bought a 19’. Post #57. :like::)

*Some* of this was available on the 15-17 if you got the aforementioned “premier trim” option (full-grain leather seats, soft touch door panels - the rest, afaik, is only available in 301a/401a 18+), but cars with that option seem virtually non-existent.
Yeah, i have the premier trim option in my 2017. The seats have a different pattern to the perforations than non-premier seats too (there's horizontal stripes in the pattern). Haven't seen too many in the wild
