The deciding factor was then the ride. I have back and neck problems that were in a flare up from the accident that put me in the market for a new ride. I could feel a substantial difference in comfort level between sports package vs base. Feeling that much difference after a 10 minute test drive was a real signal that longer drives would be a real problem.
So I went with base and love it. Only 1800 miles on it which isn't a fair review but as some one who has never owned a sports car before, find the handling and the brakes a thousand times better than anything else I have ever owned so I am happy as a possum in a pig trough.

I agree...It's the larger wheels that are very loud but look great. Also, I went with auto after driving both in Houston.
