boy that is a crappy response. sport package and premium package are worth it. cold package is not in my opinion. really research the car before buying. you should walk in the dealership knowing more about it than the salesman like i did when i went. the sunroof is great btw. leather seats are a 1000 bucks extra, and i got the leatherette which i will most likely replace because they are highly unconfortable and offer no lumbar support unlike the leather. ill get some recaro's or sparco racing seats that hold me in better and are more comfortable. Best of Luck to you.

jokes don't always come thru on the Internet. Generalizations and venting don't always come across too well either!!!

>>Anyway... the question has been asked and answered before many times, at least once a week.

word up, my brother (sister?) it was the combination of this fact and the broken zinglish language in the original post that prompted my "crappy" response.

yeah, you're right. I was harsh. Put it down to after-midnight wildness.
