Dealer Options
This really is more of a general question, but I'm most interested in the performance parts...
My wife and I are probably going to buy an xB. Cost really isn't a big issue, but I'd rather not spend money on a dealer option that could be added aftermarket for cheaper and better, or that really doesn't add anything to the car. Sooo...what options do you wish you had chosen, and which ones do you wish you hadn't? Again, I'm particularly interested in the "performance" accessories, but any other accessories would be great, too!

Only one I wish I had added was the rear spoiler. I did not buy Scion rims because they are overpriced, and most other options Ill add if I want.
Ill be adding a rear wing myself, but for the trouble, I shoulda just let scion when I bought it.
A cool option for the price is the shark fin to cover the stubby antenna. Mine should be here soon.

Welll for the xB there was not alot of performance upgrads around or dealer option's. There was only the TRD Intake and TRD Exhaust. TRD Supercharger came little wile after, and Handleing was the TRD Springs, TRD Strut Bar and TRD Rear Sway Bar.Also the TRD Front Big Break Kit is also an option now but you have to have big wheels to fit them.
I got My xB Stock only iteam i added was my Black Leather. Now i have the TRD Cold Air Intake, TRD Strut Bar and TRD Sway Bar. They all work and make xB feel tight i also went with the Tanabe NF 210 lowering springs and not the TRD's cause the Drop and the Feel of the Tanabe's are alot better over all well worth the money.
I wish the Supercharger was an option but was not around at the time also you had to buy it out right and was not able to add to your payments and i def did not have $3,800 to drop all at once.
