You may say, "what's another pound of weight?" but to that I would say, "That's why these cars are already so heavy!"
My thoughts exactly. If you really want memory seats I would recommend you try a Cadillac dealer and the CTS-V.

These things are just not that expensive and a $45k car should have them. Excess weight is a cop out...it's circuitry and logic on an already existing circuit board.

I bought my daughter a 2013 Hyundai for $17.6k (out the door) and it has everything option except leather and sunroof...even Bluetooth. The only way to get Bluetooth in a Camaro is buying the top of the line v6 or v8. That is petty BS.
Wrong. Bluetooth is standard on all Camaros.

Exactly, comparing a 16K Hyundai to a Camaro is laughable at best. Yeah, sure Hyundai loads the car w/ all manner of tech and if that is what you want, great. I'm happy for you and your daughter and I sincerely hope the car is safe and reliable. Having said and in full disclosure I have to mention that I sell vehicles for a living and I've been doing so for 13 years. It's my job to know who cuts what corner and I'm sorry to inform you that ALL manufacturers cut here and there to make a buck. The comments from the poster above are correct. You are way out of line if you think Chevy can give you all that you want for under 20K out the door. Apples and oranges.
