We looked at the 2010 2.5X Premium Forester with All Weather Package today and LOVED it, but wondered what options were "must haves". I read that wheel locks are not terribly important if you have alloy wheels and had considered adding an auto-starter but I think it may be cheaper after market. So I have all weather mats and a cargo net on my list, or are these things that are best purchased after-market? I wondered about splash guards and wheel arm molding, etc. to protect the car, and other such options. Thoughts?

I was comparing the pricing on KBB.com to Edmunds and live in a state in which we have the PZEV engines (which costs $308 more according to KBB). Edmunds doesn't list this engine as an option nor does it do a regional adjustment for the cost of it so the two sites are ~$300 apart. Does anyone know if the cost of the PZEV engines are passed onto the consumer in low emissions states (making Edmunds price incorrect)? Thanks!

This is because the Auto and All Weather options are standard on the Limited version. I thought there would be a bigger difference but because of how the Limited is equipped, the difference is much smaller than I thought. Thanks again for pointing out the PZEV for me!
