thanks for all the great advice.....We just placed the order, and did go with the sevtronic streering, didn't go with privacy glass (we think the plain glass look is very clean...not sure why everybody tints SUVs...you don't really see sedans or coupes tinted)...also added Xenon headlights

For us the sports package was not really that appealing....the firm ride, especially, so that wasn't really a consideration

We did do Sirius and the Premium sound, and will consider adding the icelink...we'll see....We live in NYC and really the car is for weekend use, so I think Sirius will give us a lot of options, but I'll add ICELINK later if need be (If i can, with premium...i think you can)

Rasta.....hmmm...I guess we can think about the steering wheel heater...It does get cold in NYC but i'd say most of our car use in nicer weather usage....and LOL we do have gloves, but maybe you're right

On the phone cradle....I've been trying to "do the math" on how much you gain versus the loss to center console....I think this will also be a wait and see thing....we'll see how much we need the console...I do like the clean look as opposed to a phone rattlinng around in the cup holder or what not

Car drives like a dream though....we were able to get it out on open roads, and that was fun

There are some dealer options we'll do as well, including a non slip mat for the back (we have Lab, so that'll be for her) and also the roof top racks for bikes/ski....they look like a very clean fit

and, of course, chrome tips for the pipes....Gotta pimp my ride somehow
