I've got an 08 sedan and equipped just as you describe (except cold weather) and with 17 alloys. Spent yesterday driving it down the Northern California coast. Very nice. BOSE sounds good to my ears. XM works well. Handling was perfect for the coastal mountains. Mounted a Garmin where the ash tray would be if it had one. Works great - fits perfectly and the antenna picks up fine without an external. When parked I hide the mount with a sun glasses case that has a slit cut in it.
Moonroof works well - not a lot of wind noise. Had three in the car - four would be tight as I'm rather tall and keep the seat back. Xenons are great at night for spotting deer. Fog lights came in handy, too.
Still less than 4000 miles but really digging it. Got 29 mpg on the trip as a whole - would have been higher if it had been interstate. Plenty of power when passing was allowed.
