Default new car, new member & looking for advice

hi everyone, i purchased a 2017 V60 AWD. This is my first 'luxury' vehicle and look forward to picking it up. The vehicle will have rubber mats and a 3M hood protector; my question for the forum members is:
-any other recommendations for accessories?
-any cool tasteful mods? (not looking for body kit or anything like that. im more curious than anything)
-any quirks that i should be aware of as a new volvo owner?

thanks everyone! I'm super excited about the new vehicle!

where do you live? If you are in snow country and this is your first AWD, I'd recommend investing in winter wheels (even with AWD you need to stop, turn etc). This also lets you run nice summer tires vs all seasons year round. I also keep rubber and carpet mats for summer/winter and did a trunk liner for my wagon.

I live located in Canada where we get snow regularly and definately yes to snow tires. Good point on trunk liners. Thanks
