Can you put the sport package on as a after market item? How can you tell if the base model has sports package? I found one with a small wing.

It's just cheaper for you in the long run if you purchase aftermarket parts honestly... |

No, you cannot.
It is next to impossible to add Synchro-rev after the fact.

Doesn't the Sport model also have an LSD?

On an MT only the Sport will have the synchro rev match and it pretty much cannot be added to a base. Look for the S-mode button to the right of the shifter. On the AT models, you can pretty much install all the Sport package parts yourself on a base. No one will ever know.

This is true, that is one thing you're unable to add...but at the end of the day, who really needs it if you know how to go through the gears...at the end of the day, you still can't add it. Enjoy what you have and augment as you see fit

The money is well spent on the sports package. Avoiding the cost now means paying more later.

Wow all this end of the day talk is depressing. You could have an aftermarket wing on a base, too. The best way to tell base vs. sport is, as stated I think, to look for S-Mode next to the shifter. If it does not have that, it's a base and it is modded. Might still be a great car though, you never know. |

Yes, the sport pkg also includes a viscous lsd. Also, if you have an AT, there won't be a sport mode button. You will need to by a different transmission ti get the synchro rev match. I asked this same question when I was looking. I got the sport pkg. It was cheaper than trying to go aftermarket.
