I'm buying my first luxury SUV and decided on Audi Q7 because I just really liked how it felt while driving.. Dealership wants me to add tint and paint protection packages that add over $3k to the price. This vehicle truly is at the top of my budget, so I'm wondering if I really need them?

I previously leased Jeeps and never bought extra add-ons because I never had those vehicles long enough to worry about rust, paint issues, etc.

Any advice on what's "worth it" is truly helpful. Thank you.

Also- please feel free to let me know if buying an new Audi Q7 is a mistake? I assume it's not after reading the common vehicle rankings like Car and Driver, etc.. But again, I'm new to this market, so I appreciate the advice.
