If I really wanted performance I would buy the base model with no sports package and go all aftermarket, which is why I started this thread to find out what I would lose or gain by not getting it. The sports package is a great deal, but if in a year or less I start buying new rims, tires, etc., why spend the money the extra money on these features and have them go to waste? Yes I would have a spare but so would I if I bought the base model.

The G37 is to big, the 135 is a nice car, not a sports car.

Edit: Also, I spend usually months, if not over a year, before I jump on a purchase like this. I like to make sure I am getting the best deal, and all the features I want with nothing extra.
You will not be able to make up the difference in aftermarket for anywhere near $3k.

I think the sports package should be a no-brainer for most people buying the car, not only do you get all the goodies for a relatively cheap price, but I would imagine there will be quite a big difference when it comes to re-sale value.
