I have the 1SS. If I could do it again, I would go with the 2SS in a heartbeat. The 2SS's leather seats are built better than the 1SS's seats. They are more comfortable and they don't have the annoying side-to-side rocking tendencies of the lightweight cloth seats.

That's a big deal to me. I weigh 165 lbs, so I'm not big enough to cause the cloth seats to rock around as I drive. They just do it because of their design. I've asked the service department at the dealer what was up and they said it was normal.

Also, if you're going to add power mods, it's nice to be able to keep an eye on oil temp. So the 2SS's extra guage cluster is a good thing.

But, if you want to save a few grand and use that money for mods, and you don't mind cloth seats that rock side-to-side when you turn, then get the 1SS. It's still a very nice car and very fun to drive.
