Advantages of an auto sports package..

But what exactly are the differences between a 2015 Sports Package and a base package besides the Brembo Brakes (especially if both are Auto and no rev matching is involved)?

if 17' is base package, it will have 18x8/9" wheels : 15' sport has 19x9/10" wheels
15' sport may also have an LSD vs. open on the base
unsure about the rest.

However, in practical purposes, does it look or drive better? Going back to the original question, I would be trading away a better color (dark blue) for 10k fewer miles. I would not be getting a better car or a more attractive car.

Bigger brakes, VLSD, better rims. How do you drive your car? If you're fairly aggressive, you'll probably enjoy the upgrades.

Also you get the sport spoiler if your car doesn't have it. The sport rims are great lightweight forged Rays too. Like JL said - if you are a driver, you will enjoy the upgraded brakes and LSD... if you are a cruiser, you probably would enjoy having your slick blue color.

How do you not know this? You've owned both cars with and without the sports package. Why are you asking us things you should know from your own personal experience? The addition of the automatic doesn't change so much that your earlier experience with your own sport package Z is not applicable. JFC, dude.

Mine was a manual. I liked the rev matching. This one is an auto. Since both are auto...
