Has anyone driven a touring with AND without the sport pkg? I'm planning to get a rdster when they come out and am torn...my tendency is to get top of the line, but this is going to be my everyday car and it needs to also have a wife-friendly ride for longer trips, 4hrs to beach, 2hrs to mountains, occasional drive back home 12hrs...etc. I've read in more than a couple of the articles out there that unless I plan on visits to the track to stay away from the sprt pkg...which is fine I guess, but why is that...is it just because of diff btwn 18s and 19s? I'm sure the upgraded suspension contributes as well, right? The other factor is that the larger RAYS wheels look way better than the "been there, done that" 5 spokers. Sorry for stuffing so many questions here but am also concerned about the road howl the 19s are apparently notorious for...are the 18s any better? Do we know if the Roadster will have the front chin spoiler or rear deck spoiler? Thanks.

I like the sports package for the brakes. If you are worried about road howl and stuff, buy a G37 not a spports car.

There is no suspension upgrade with the Sport Package. It comes with 19 inch Rays, better tires, upgraded brakes, front lip spoiler, rear spoiler, LSD, and syncro rev match. All that for only 3k more, if you can afford it I highly recommend it. The only suspension change comes in the Nismo model, which I often hear is very hard. I owned a 350 before and although the 370 is a stiffer ride, it's still pretty comfortable.

I bought my first one without the sport package and when I was back at the dealer, my saleman asked how I liked it after six months. He took all my complaints and suggested I try one with the sport package. Rode better and the seats were much more comfortable. Bought it right on the spot. It's much better on the highway.
