Default 2011 Scion TC is awesome!

Hey everyone, i just purchased a 2011 Scion tc. Magnetic gray base, only option is the auto tranny. Big difference coming from a Lt1 powered Trans am. Im amazed by the ride and quality of the scion tc. When it first came out i thought it was hideous looking from the magazines... I decided to check it out in person and did my opinion change. This car looks much better in person than in pictures. I dont know if its the fact that its a brand new car or just the way it is, ride is pretty damn good especially for 18s n low profile tires. Gas pedal is very sensitive and this car is pretty peppy. I love the way the steering wheel is and the way it tightens up the faster you go. Transmission (A6) is responsive and i don't really feel the shift much. Rims make this car look hotttt. Moonroof.. cant believe this moonroof is on a $20k car. However there are a few things that bugs me just a little but i hate to complain. 1) blind spot im just going to have to get used to towards the rear sides. 2) only 1 reverse light on the drivers side (im gonna make a second one) 3) Sound system is alright but could be better. Sorry ladies n gents i dont have pictures as of now but ill work on gettin them, hopefully soon.

Does anyone know where i can get some decent wheel locks at a good price?
How about an alarm? i dont need anything fancy, would be nice to hook up the alarm to the key, instead of another key fob.

Thanks

on the alarm side, if you go with a dei alarm and use the dball interface, you can use the factory key fob to control the aftermarket alarm. how i got mine set up, but i still carry my aftermarket fob because its a pager

Thanks! I was browsing around this forum last week, your tc really made me finalize my decision on choosing the magnetic gray color.
