Welcome aboard the forums, and congratulations on the new purchase!

Nice! That's a pretty good price. It looks like it has some of the exterior features of the limited (silver rear bumper).



What does it not have that the Limited does?

Congrats on your purchase. Looks really good! Those 19'' Limited wheels makes so much difference on the overall apperance. Magnetic grey was my second choice after blizzard perl. I love that color.

off the top...

wood grain interior

silver door handles and roof rails (i like the color-keyed handles/rails)

3 zone automatic climate control

smartkey entry with pushbutton start



i'm not sure about the rest...had the flyer and chucked it as soon as i bought this

i think limiteds come with navs, but not 100% sure on that



originally i was going to buy the limited, but then realized what i really liked about it over the SE was the wheels, but the other stuff didn't really interest me, so...did it this way (the wheels cost a grip though)



the only thing i think i would have done differently...would be to get all black interior (this is after following a thread here somewhere) but i had already ordered the car by then...it still looks good inside.



i'm just glad the buying experience is over. now comes the monthly payment experiences

thx vsansal...i agree with this 100%. of course, i had to pay to play but when buying a car, you gotta get what you want



i hate that toyota decided not to make the 19"s standard on the '11 SE (Sport) like they did on the 08-10 models. limiteds only now. sheesh (i do understand the tire issues better now after visiting these forums though)



looking forward to being a little more active on the forum now!

Congrats! Hope you won't say "I'm out" in a couple of months or so when you notice those squeaks and rattles...
