    There is only one choice................Sport w/suspension package! Why? 'cause it has the least amount of junk but has the LSD, bilsteins, and A/C.

    Honestly, here is a rough breakdown:

    • If you want a 5 spd and 16 inch wheels, You are talking about the Club Spec, MX-5, or Touring models, none of which have LSD or leather.
    • If you want an LSD, you have to get the Suspension package or the Premium package. The susp pack is available on the SPORT and the GRAND TOURING. The Premium pack is only available on the GRAND TOURING.
    • All SPORT and GRAND TOURING cars have 17" wheels and 6spd.
    • The main differences between Sport and GT are cloth vs leather and the availability of the Premium pack.
    • The 6spd auto isn't that bad, but it deletes the LSD.
    Confused yet? Full breakdown here.

    Buy the one you're least likely to want to drive.

    She got a laugh out of it no worries

    I sold the motorcycle and have 2 hundred a month extra to play with. Open up a Scottstrade account, supercharge the Silver Bullet or sell the SB and buy a new NC?

    The NC isn't an improvement over yours, a supercharger won't do you any good since you aren't even using all the power you've got now, and those trading account fees are ridiculous.

    I suggest you send it to me instead. I'll be sure to list you as my sponsor at all events!
