If you have an automatic transmission, I recommend it. If not, don't recommend the auto remote start. Some people forget to put the car in neutral then push the remote car start. This is when you break things!

i'm in chicago too, have been all my life, but you NEVER get used to this cold a$$ weather. so, 2 weeks after i got my PW xB (new years eve) I ran and got a starter/alarm put on it and i don't know how i lived without one in the past.
if you live in cold climate, i recommend it. i've heard about stories of battery drain, but mine works well and i'll sacrafice a battery if it'll get my box warm for me.

mine was $380 on sale, average price for a good one with the pager would be $500 and up, check the papers in your area you might find one for a good price that way
and i'm with pimpe_Ok, i'm gonna add the auto window mode too

as for the remote start...i have been spoiled with that for over 4yrs now and my wife is too with our xB. still desiding wether to do it or not for the tC (5speed) and yes i know the dangers of RS on MT but I've had my RS on my CRX for a long time but this time its different cause my wife is driving it too....
just my two cents,
