1SS with RS Package OR 2SS without RS Package

All things being equal (price, color, etc) which one would you choose:

1SS with the RS Package

OR

2SS without the RS Package

Thanks!

That's a tuff decision.
I love the heated leather seats, so the 2SS is someting I'd want.

The 4 guage pod is also nice because it gives you oil temp and trans temp.

1SS/RS.

The general public can't differentiate a 2SS from a 1SS and will more likely recognize the red lettering.

Also, the RS is an appearance package, the 2SS is more comfort oriented. So, go from there.

your buying a car thats in the mid to high 30's.....if you can afford a 2SS.....certainly you can afford the extra $1300 and get it all!!

my vote is 2ss WITH the RS pkg

1SS/RS.
Getting the 2SS without the RS would seem like you are missing out on part of a fully loaded car.
Getting the 1SS with the RS is a stripped down hotrod with all the cool stuff added.
My 11 has the Hurst shifter, polished wheels, and RS package. Everything I wanted and a few grand cheaper!

Whatever you want, but...

Getting a 1SS/RS and adding 2SS features sounds like an upgrade.
Getting a 2SS and adding RS features... seems more like cloning.
If you plan on mods down the road... jus' sayin'.

I'm happy with my 2SS non RS car. I don't miss the $800 headlights that the RS package has.

With 2SS you get leather seats, bluetooth, homelink, heated seats, 4-pack guages, heated mirrors, premium 9-speaker sound w/ steering wheel controls, USB port

With RS you get upgraded headlights and a different color paint on the wheels

You decide...

Get the 2SS, $800 for the lights seems like a waste to me too and I have seen very few ss cars without the rs package, I like the white badge.
