(Lease) Delivery pit-falls ?

So I'm days away from taking delivery of my new leased 2013 X5-35d. First time leasing and not familiar with all the paper-work and "options". Are there any pitfalls or (unncessary and) costly "options" to be looking out for? I know they will try to "sell" a tire and wheel protection, anything else? It's a 36 month lease with the intent to return the vehilcle upon lease end. One more question: Are carpet floor mats included or offered "for purchase" ?

Garage List
I"m leasing my X5 premium and I bought the wheel and tire package. I negotiated it down, but its well worth the headache especially if your deductible on your insurance is more than 300 bucks.

Supposedly my x5 didn't come with mats (which I believe is an outrage at this price point) but my salesman had them placed in the truck while it was being detailed.

I would try to see how much of your out of pocket cash payment you can have converted to a refundable security deposit that will allow you to get back at the lease end or use as part of securing the next lease.

New X5s (at least since 2012) include the carpet floor mats from the factory. I can confirm this, bought a new '12 X5 35d in October. And they weren't a "throw in" by the dealer.
