Trying to figure out 1LT vs 2LT compared to 1SS vs 2SS
I am having a hard time figuring out if I'm missing something... The price difference on the 1LT vs 2LT with the exact same configurations are ~6500 whereas the difference from 1SS to 2SS is ~5000. Are there more differences between 1LT and 2LT that perhaps are already included in a 1SS (and therefore not included in the 2SS differential?)... Ex. I would understand if for example the 1SS already have the 9 bose speakers upgrade, and therefore the 2SS is less of a jump... but as far as I know its the exact same upgrade?
Or is it just based on economics / supply demand. |

I think one of those is the LCD screen in the instrument cluster... the 1SS gets the same screen as 2SS, whereas the base LT gets a much smaller credit card sized screen in instrument binacle.

Now I'm really confused... It seems that the 2ss upgrade over 1ss actually gives you more than what the 2lt gets you over the 1lt... EX... going to 2lt you don't get spectrum lighting, side blind spot, rear park assist, etc... You'd actually need to spend another 3k for that...
So am I missing something? it costs nearly 10k to get the same upgrade from 1LT to 2LT as you get from going 1ss to 2ss for about 5k? |

They are giving you every reason to get the SS - Take it
A loaded V6 pretty much costs the same as a 1SS. Good marketing.

PLUS, keep in mind if you go 2SS, you're getting pretty much every option included because its a 2SS. 1LT = Bare Bones V6 2LT = Loaded V6 (with options selected) Auto, Ltg & Conv. Package, RS Package, Bright Aluminum Wheels, Navigation 1SS = Bare Bones V8 2SS = Pretty much Loaded V8 except the NPP dual exhaust and MRC

Agreed.. If I was tempted to get a 2lt with convenience and lighting etc I would easily not only go to a 1ss but also jump another 5k and get the 2ss. Although my finances don't allow for it plus it would be a daily driver. I think the 1lt is an easy choice for me.... I'll get the rs upgrade npp and tech package too. Comes out to 37k.

I'd love the back up sensors and blind spot warning... I'd use it, but can make do without it. I'd love the lighting... But it certainly isn't worth the extra $. Heated seats etc... Yes, I'd use it, I use it on my car all the time, but don't need it. I'd love leather too. All and all, I'd pay the 5k to get the upgrade from 1ss to 2ss... However I can't justify the 10k to get it from 1LT to 2LT. So my reasoning is now 'is it worth getting SS over LT. And for me that answer is a no. I don't need that much power (yet)... For now, it's just making my commute to work just a little more exciting. And getting a 1LT will make it a HELL of a lot more exciting. Although, my neighbour owns 2 brand new Lamborghinis, lol. He got them delivered a couple months ago.... So I'll always want more. |

I agree with your reasoning, I think the same way.
The 1LT with the V6 would have made me happy but the V8 is really what made my heart race. So I decided to go for it, it is at the top of my price limit but the smiles per hour will be worth it.
