Hi. Just thought I'd post that my wife and I just purchased the AWD Touring in Venice, FL. on Monday- has 300 miles on it 
We got the only MSM AWD in the state according to our dealer who had to get it from Daytona. We got the grey interior which we felt was better with the Fl. sun...personal preference. Wife loves it as she drives about 40 min. up route 41 to work and back daily. Yesterday there was a downpour on the way home. She went through some pretty deep water- not sure how deep. Said the car handled like a dream. We love the Premium sound system too.
My one big concern- the 9 Speed Transmission. No problems yet but I just read the thread about the gentlemen who's transmission crapped out on him after 11,000 miles. Should I spend mental energy worrying about whether this "shoe is going to drop" or is it just one of those random and rare unfortunate circumstances. Another small concern- adjusting the rear view mirror. She finds it very difficult to adjust...
Regardless, we love the Touring features and feel we got a real value for our money.
