Sport Package?

AP - Chris_B

Yes, but only for street use. Better pads and rotors will help, but the Akebono's are not serious performers compared to what else is available.

Same as above. Very aggressive driving or track use kills the viscous diff as it can't handle the heat, which has been true for most other cars with this type as well. Another diff option would be better.

Important only if set on keeping the OE wheels. Otherwise, upgraded wheels/tires could be purchased in a different width.

Pressure recovery (reducing rear lift)? Yes. But lower CD? Doubtful. Even if yes, then not by very much.

If you like this, then great. If you can downshift just fine without it, then it is unnecessary.

It depends on the perspective of the buyer. For some, yes. For me, no. I'd rather bargain down the strippy model and pour the saved cash into upgrades that have more to offer. I do respect other viewpoints on this as there is no one answer for all.

Just wondering how many members really go to the track. And how many miles do you put in at the track and how many miles in regular driving??

So IMHO it came down to better looking 19in wheels,bigger and better brakes
in everyday traffic,front and rear spoilers,lsd oh and bigger tires. close your eyes and you can tell no difference in the ride quality. Oh and at resale that 3000.00 upgrade will come in handy.Not to mention it looks better.

Ok i'm off my soap box.

To each his own, but I feel the sport package is well worth having. No hassles looking for your own better after market brakes and wheels alone may be worth the price of admission.
