3 new options for 2007 model

Just got a letter from SOA, as most know, the 2007 model adds some nice options to it.

-Chrome wheels
-Rear sensors
-Mesh grille

The moment I saw the rear sensor option, I knew the wife wanted it, so I left the letter on our countertop. So the wife comes home, and low and behold, she sees it. MSRP $269, anyone have any idea how much labor will be? Time to call my local dealership. This is a must have, she had it on her Explorer, and with rear visiblity as bad as the B9 is, we have to get this.

Having just ordered a 2007, I can add to your list...

Rear camera as part of the Nav system
XM Radio (BTW, it is available alone or with the chrome mesh grill & chrome wheels as a package called the "Special Edition")
Remote starter
Memory seats are now standard.
A new rollover sensor that activates the side air bags is now standard
A new brake assist system is now standard.
A jack for your Ipod is standard with the premium sound system

The chrome wheels & chrome mesh grill are ONLY available in the SE package. At this point they cannot be purchased alone when ordering the vehicle, but might be available aftermarket. SE package is $1295 MSRP

You can read more here.

You can now request a 2007 brochure. I have one that I received prior to ordering mine.

yeah i knew there were more features on the 2007, but what i mentioned is what can be purchased for the 2006 now.
Wheels and mesh grill can be had from the dealer now, just like the puddle lights that you could not get unless they were installed at the factory.

Gotcha. From the wording I took it to mean what was available for the 2007, even though you clearly talked about adding to your '06. :Dunno:.

My reading comprehension obviously needs improvement. :lol:

Wow, what a price diff. Ordered on a new car it is $1295 MSRP & purchased as Subaru parts it is $1650 - without the XM. Glad I ordered them on the car...
ok so i called the dealer today, spoke w/ service, they had no idea what i was talking about. they told me its available on the 2007, but not on the 2006, i told him i knew that, but told him i got a letter from SOA informing me of these options for the 2006. i asked for the manager to call me tomorrow (today).
update: the dealer gives me a quote of 2 hours to install the sensors, i'm like wtf? i looked around, and subarugeninueparts.com has them for $214.00 plus shipping, wondering how hard it would be to install these things. these are a must for my wife.
I'm guessing these are the type with the buttons in the bumper where you need to drill holes. Could take some time to do it properly.
