the RS package includes:
HID Hi/Lo lights.
Halo rings
body-color roof ditch moulding
specific badging
lip spoiler (on LT models)
Midnight Silver 20" rims + tires
and smoked taillights.
Exterior changes ONLY, no interior mods.
It costs $1750, $1450, and $1200 for the 1LT, 2LT, and SSs respectively.
IMO, this package is worth well over what they're charging for it. The headlights alone will run you approx $500-600 a piece. They provide an absolutely heavenly cast of light...VERY top-of-the-line stuff...Number 3 (GM employee and valued Camaro5 member) remarked that they were absolutely the best headlights he's ever experienced and he test drives a LOT of cars for the company.
The Halo rings are downright sinister. I wish they were bright enough to use as Daytime Running lights from the factory, but as it is...they are badass in every sense of the term. (they make BMW angel eyes look old and boring, imo)
The roof-ditch moldings make the roof of the car a little cleaner, and and little more upscale...I only wish this included a body-color shark fin.
The rims are fantastic...if you haven't seen midnight silver in person, check it out. They don't look dirty so much as have an "inner shadow", if that makes sense. Very neat.
And the same goes for the smoked taillights. Just a better look, imo.
For LT models, it gives the car a more SS-like appearance (spoiler, rims), and adds 'RS' badging. It becomes and even greater value (as some have said) for LT models because the rims are probably worth well over $1000/4 if they were sold by themselves as an option.
However, if you don't like the Halo rings, for instance...or maybe for some reason you prefer the warm light of the standard halogens...then the package isn't worth it and you shouldn't feel pressured into buying it.
