So us S model guys should have the best start, as far as the lightest focus to start with. Ill probably drop the spare tire, add a fix a flat n plug kit, a CAI, aftermarket sways, drop springs. Id love to see what kind of weight I can shed.

I'd personally go as far as to say 2012 SE Sports have the best place to start due to the rear discs and cloth interior with the upgraded suspension.

I guess my only point was, how much has to be added to the S to get it to the same performance levels (braking, handling) as an SE Sport. It'd be easy to remove things from the SE Sport, but having to add is opposite the original ideal

Try a Jeremy Clarkson quote next time. More absurd but also generally more relevant. FYI 20 lbs of dieting is not remotely as good as losing 20 pounds of rotating mass. |
