Almost $1K after installation but worth it.

I still say that for the money, the '06 thru '08 RL is the best value going. I don't know of another car of its type that can be had for as little.

100% ... still don't see many at all driving around which is nice

That depends on the age. For an '06 today, I wouldn't pay more than $500 more for it versus a non-CMBS of the same condition. I would be much more concerned about the mechanical condition and maintenance records.
