Dealer offering Rustproofing package?

Hey fellas,

I'm hoping to get my fit this coming Saturday from Ready Honda in Mississauga, Ont. I said yes to a $1500CAD dealer package that includes:

- yearly rustproofing
- stone chip repaint
- interior cleaning (ie. if I spilled coffee for instance)
- add Teflon coating on top of clearcoat (never have to wax the car according to him and acts as a protective barrier like a bra, but not as effective)

I think there were a couple more I missed (unfortunately, my contract is in my Accord glove box right now). Yearly rustproofing is valid for the life of the car. Actually, all of the above mentioned is valid for the life of the car. For the rustproofing, according to him it's non-invasive. Meaning, no holes drilled and they have a Honda-made tool that they use to insert their rustproofing solution. My only concern about this package is that I'm only allowed once a year between the months of Jan-Mar to get my car inspected and fixed. That kind of defeats the purpose of rustproofing. However, I believe it's just in their policy simply because I'm taking possession of the vehicle in Feb. So, the clock starts there sort of speak.
My question to you guys is that were you offered a similar deal when you bought your car? If you were offered but declined, mind my asking as to why? If you were offered and accepted, I'd like to hear some feedback from you. I'm curious to know if this is strictly offered as a private deal by the dealership or does Honda Canada actually have a nationwide package like this.

Thanks-a-bunch fellas.
