Default My new xB RS2.0 is coming.

Alexandria Toyota in Va. told me today that my xB rs2.0 automatic is due in on 15Apr (Tax Day). What do you all think about the options I want and should I get them?

1. Fog Lights
2. 17" alloy wheels
3. Dealer Installed SunRoof
4. Rear Bumper Applique
5. Cargo Cover
6. Floor Mats

Does anyone think I should get the extended warranty?

Thanks

Sounds good, I saw one of the new RS2.0's today near a toyota dealer on a test drive. I love the xB in yellow. I would even consider trading in my black one for a RS.20 solar yellow one

First of all, congrats on the purchase, If I had waited 3 more days, I would have known about the RS 2.0, and wouldn't have my blue onyx right now. However, How much are you paying for the wheels?
DEFINITELY GET THE SUNROOF, I cannot tell you how many times i've wanted to pop the roof of my car, to find that i don't have a sunroof
Get the floor mats off of ebay - you can get them $20-60 off, which I thought was nice
I think the applique on the bumper would accent the yellow car very nicely, i'd do it (i have one too)
Depends how much the wheels are if you should get them or not
Fog lights are overrateed as I've heard on many of the threads
The cover is really not that necessary, I have one but don't really use it much, I find that the stock tint is dark enough that you don't need one, it's hard to see into the back window. I myself can't see my bazooka subwoofer when I look in the trunk

GOOD LUCK AND HAVE FUN WITH A DAMN NICE XB

Congratulations on your RS 2.0! You're going to love it. I love mine!

The foglights are okay... I'll admit that they're more for style than utility on my box. I didn't know the dealer offered 17" alloys, I know they have 15" alloys available. I'm not crazy about the rear bumper thing. It's hard to clean around, hard to get wax off of, and the contrast is a little strong for my tastes (against solar yellow)

If the dealer will install a sunroof, and the price is right, go for it! Get the cargo cover and mats on ebay. You will save a lot going through aftermarket dealers.

As far as the warranty, it's a Toyota. I feel safe without the extended warranty just knowing how reliable these cars have been for me in the past.
