These 'protection' packages are 90% dealer profit - thats fairly well known. Even aside from the rip off, exterior protection/rustproofing may be detrimental to new car paint, and by blocking up drain holes, may actually cause structural rust down the line. Anything sprayed on the interior may also be harmfull, leave a nasty smell, or leave surfaces with a very tacky looking high shine appearance.
I would by an $8 can of Scotchgard for the mats, $12 of Lexol cleaner & conditioner for the leather, and some 3M Imperial hand glaze and 3M Showcar wax for the paint ($10 each?). Apply the scotchgard now, you wont need the Lexol or 3M for at least 6 months.
You have then spent $40, and will have real protection & care of your car when it needs it.
