Sirius Subs
FYI for those interested, Sirius lowered the lifetime subscription to $399 from $499. It includes transferring to sub to 3 devices for $75 each time if you end up changing your car or want to transfer it to another device.
Please don't turn this into a XM vs. Sirius thread or the merger will render both companies bankrupt thread. This is for those who are considering activating the radio past the free 6 months.

I did this 2 months into my 6 month free sub. I was able to get them to give me credit for the 6 months (YMMV on this, it took a lot of talking). I ended up paying $371 (incl. tax) for the sub.

Thanks for the heads up, I was on the fence based on the monthly/yearly price, but saving the $100 for the lifetime makes it make a little more sense. The sat radio is definitely nice for traveling... even with burned mp3s, the command drive, ipod connector, cds, the real radio, and the pcmcia slot.

they wouldnt credit the 6 months back to me, but i didnt have any tax... so $399.99 total. I opted for the 4 payments, $99.99 today, $100 each month for 3 months after... since there was no charge associated with doing it.

I waffled over the fact that there were 4 more free months left on my sub, but it didn't make sense to sacrifice the $100 price reduction for the comped months. I had to call twice before I got a rep that would even allow me to apply the $399 sub at all. Glad it worked out for you.

I've gotten hooked on it as well so the $399 for lifetime is great, even if I change cars the $75 to transfer the sub isn't too bad.

I just called Sirius to try and get the same offer. After a long time on hold, the agent pointed me to the terms and conditions link at bottom, which states that while most subscriptions are transferrable, a LIFETIME car subscription is not.
It is too bad that this is buried, as the offer implies that we can transfer service for $75, for any radio.
FYI, the subscription stays with the car, so when you sell it, the new owner gets the free service.

I am still mulling over whether or not to get it now. . .

However, my sales talked me into getting a 3-yr Sirius "promotion" when I picked up the car for $323 - and now I hear about this $399 life plan, I was screwed!!
what was I thinking....
