RS for sure. Love the look of the halo lights. I wouldn't separate my headlight for halos and risk moisture in the headlight.

The LED tail lights are what I really like. Can't beat the look at night.

This is a big thing too. All around, I definitely thought the RS was worth it. It wouldn't have been a deal breaker if it wasn't an RS though.

i went rs for the extras which with the 1le is basically the lites. (cant recall all the stuff for rs).. 2 things i look for when driving my daily driver and i see a camaro. headlites and what diameter is the exhaust.
to be sure, get what you really want. or can live without. if it means waiting alittle longer then i say wait. gl!

i spent $$ on recaros, I can care less what some one else think about my lights, I can't see them in the car anyways, seats you enjoy every time you get in. But I got my car for the performance per $$ so any bling I left off, more to go wrong later and less weight. Spend your $$ where it makes you happy. I put the cash into CAI/brakes/suspension because that is where I wanted to spend it. Performance/style/comfort, great to have choices

RS or no RS

To each there own but since you asked the question that means it must be important. For the price of these cars, get what you want. It really is cheaper in the long run to add RS than to try to get halos aftermarket(ask around about all of the problems people have). If the money is not the issue, option it the way you want from the factory.

Went with the RS because of the functionality. I never realized how much I wasn't seeing at night until I owned a vehicle with HIDs. Halos also function as running lights in the day time

I special ordered mine, and made sure they didn't add the RS package. I don't understand why somebody would spend $1500 on light upgrades, such a waste of money. You can get the Recaros for just a few hundred dollars more, or LT headers, intake and tune for the same price. Plus that chrome strip they add looks horrible.
