Agreed. I don't like the new stereo, and the rims aren't that great. I wouldn't buy one.

If you like the rims and like the idea of having a 6 disc in dash go for it. The spoiler alone is worth the extra 400 i think. The factory charges wayy more for it.

get the EX special addition, i think for the price difference, the spoiler and the CD changer is a steal. thou i have to admit, i like the regular EX rims better, cuz they look cleaner.
