Ahh! The clicking of tongues!

It's a personal choice. I've seen some folks keep the factory stereo forever and others replace it as soon as they got home. Same with wheels, tires, etc.
If you like a clean look, keep the factory stuff. If you like modding, experimenting, the latest stuff, whatever, then go with high end aftermarket.
After about a year, after the initial scare of a new car wears off, most people start installing hard wired radar detectors, window tint and (gasp!) other stuff that didn't come from the factory.
