I think people who are price conscious and who buy the Sport S model in many instances need to look at the special editions. I am referring to people who are buying specific options. The best example is the Altitude edition and one of the most commonly purchased options that people buy with the Sport S. The hard top.
The price of a hard-topped-Sport S ($37,685) is only $500 less than the Altitude ($38,185.) *including destination charges* which comes with a standard hard top. But the Altitude comes with better wheels, the hardtop headliner, better suspension, and some nice cosmetic touches. Now, I am someone who advocates not getting suckered into buying options you don't want when car shopping, but.. At some point if they are going to throw in enough options you take it. I totally get if someone could not care less about the headliner or the tires, why throw $500 away. But most people would put some value on these items.
Basically you're getting this value.
The same is true for the Black & Tan edition for any customer who wants the Sport S with the technology package and the premium soft top. (Although this may limit your color choices)
I think Ive read articles that these packages were rip offs. I don't get it.
