Re: differences between the 2 models
vartex said:
i know the s has 160 horsepower and the i has something like 147 but i was wondering if there was a differences in the display of mph. i know it doesnt mean anything, but its still good to know. i think the s shows 140 but im not sure of the i.
also, whats the advantage of getting sport package and is there anyway to get moon roof without that option?
thanks
I don't think there are any number differences in the speedo display, but the "S" has the electroluminescent gauges.
The sport package IMO makes the car look "better/sportier" with the 17" wheels and side sill extensions. I also think they will help slightly with handling, but at the expense of a little road noise ( but is still surprisingly quiet IMO).
Yes, you can get the Moonroof/6CD package without getting the sport package. You can also get the ABS/SAB/SAC package on the S without the sport package. On all S models you get the sport bumpers, electroluminescent gauges, and black taillights. Not sure what trans you prefer, but I have seen a good selection of Auto S models with 6CD/moonroof and ABS package cars without the sport pkg. I want the Sport package so my MZ3's MSRP will be $20,005. The same car without the sport package would be $19,515.
