Those who think the RS package is a rip off

My dealer told me that the hid head lamps cost 850 dollars a piece[give or take a little like 825 or 875] That is 1700 for just the lights.

Yeah if you think about it just the wheels and the headlights are like double what they charge for the RS package, I don't think it's a bad deal at all. I wouldn't have my car any other way!

Yea but, what does stink is you pay for the wheels twice if you get polished with the rs because they charge you extra on top of the rs package. Also the spoiler comes on the car any how if you get the SS and It's really hard to tell the diff in the tail lights. So hard that the factory was mixing them up for awhile. Really all your getting is HID, and roof ditch moldings color keyed if you get and SS. It's more of a value in the LT. You also get Red SS badge on the SS and just rs badges on the LT.
