Placed my order today, the advice here was the best on the web, thanks.

I've ordered a sx with factory Cruise Control so I have a three month wait, but I'll be guaranteed all the latest kit
ie Bluetooth, Traction control, Max number of air bags

I used http://DiscountNewCars.com.au,  it's a good reality check to compare your deal, the dealer I was referred to squealed when I said I wanted a 2011 model for that price but he gave in.

My Mods will be
Towbar from a local supplier
Spider tuning box, I actually ordered this last month with the 20% discount
Steering wheel audio controls using the howto on this forum
Weather shields off ebay
mudflaps ?
mats ?

As it turns out, my son will be using this car to learn on, and probably to use as a drive
I'm pretty please that I've given him all the safety features it's practical the give while he is in the young male driver stage
It's certainly the safest car I'll have driven in 30 years

Regards

Looking at the votes of her original video-clip on youtube, i would say that most people don't show the same respect...
