Barbus has a very nice "black" handle I'm also interested in. NOT cheap, but very, very nice.

Yes, you will have reduced reception. I used my stubby antenna for one day, and switched back to the standard antenna. Some stations had strong enough reception, so it really depends on your geographic location, hilly conditions, signal strength, etc.

Ha, I get jokes. But seriously, I have a diecast model from Europe that I've had for seven or eight years. It's a red/black passion (were the European ones called that?) (with an ugly purple interior!), and I've had it on my desk at whatever job I've had. Tomorrow (hopefully) I pick up my red/black passion. Fortunately, the black interior will improve the real thing.

I like to tell people "It's going to look just like this model. Only it's nearly twice as big!"

Thanks for the info SmartyParts21 but they rolled the price into the cost of the car.

Your right it is nice and a little spendy. I was waiting for for someone to come up with one a little closer to home and cheaper. If all else fails I guess I`ll have the Barabus option.

Yep! I got it Tuesday and have been happily driving it this week. To be honest, I didn't even know for sure if I'd be able to get it, due to numerous problems with the sales team, but most of the kinks got worked out. A few more popped up at the dealer (make sure you read your financial arrangements and make sure they give you your $99 reservation fee back! I almost got gipped out of it).

To stay on topic, I did go with the rubber floormats and the CD case and ash tray as accessories. Considered a few other things, but they didn't have the cargo divider in stock. Drove home a really long way through beautiful little towns.

I've been getting used to the car and learning how to drive it. It's quite a change from my big, gas-guzzling SUV, but I love it! Will post pictures soon. I took a couple today parked next to the Yaris at work.

Definitely the cargo divider

I got very few accessories, but I did get the cargo divider. It's great being able to "cover" anything I leave in the cargo area and it helps things from sliding forward. You loose a couple of inches of cargo space, but the divider pops in and out very easily so it's not a problem if I need to change things. Got the carpet (vs. rubber) floor mats.
