Advantages of an auto sports package..

Yea, the advantages of the sports package are pretty great. So long as you don't mind having an older car, I too would do it.

I would do it only if it had a 6spd. Otherwise your car is worth more IMO.

You sure about that? I just ran it through kbb.com

'17 base, 30k miles, blue, auto, excellent condition = $22,852 Private Party Value

'15 Sport, 20k miles, Black, auto, excellent condition = $24,255 Private Party Value.

if you've beat on your car, sell it. if it looks like he beat on his, don't.

But what exactly are the differences between a 2015 Sports Package and a base package besides the Brembo Brakes (especially if both are Auto and no rev matching is involved)?

if 17' is base package, it will have 18x8/9" wheels : 15' sport has 19x9/10" wheels
15' sport may also have an LSD vs. open on the base
unsure about the rest.

However, in practical purposes, does it look or drive better? Going back to the original question, I would be trading away a better color (dark blue) for 10k fewer miles. I would not be getting a better car or a more attractive car.
