This is why I liked the idea also ...with cruise on I constantly have to reset/set etc. when people pull infront of me without giving enough room...But I guess I'll have to give up the chin spoiler to do that since for some reason they won't allow it on the website.

I couldnt justify the cost for it this time though.

That's what I have to decide...usually on long trips I use the SUV rather than the car...so maybe it will be pointless getting the tech package....I have to look at that chin spoiler and see if I like it that much. The rear decklid spoiler can be gotten with the tech package ...just not the chin.

Now I have to go look at pics to figure out how each of those options look on the sport. The chin/spoiler stuff and the 18" 9-spoke wheels. Don't see the R-spec brakes thing though ...may not be there on X models

If you see the front bumpers with tech package you'll see a rectangular opening in the front lower grille area. That's the the SONAR/RADAR/WhateverDAR for the ICC, preview braking, pre-crash belts. I'm guessing the chin spoiler interferes with this opening in an unsafe manner somehow...

The R-spec brakes are only available on the Journey and Sport 6MT. Sorry, no factory "high-friction" brakes for the heavier AWD. Just put some aftermarkets on once you burn through your first pads and you'll be at least as good off, if not better.

The 9-spokes are a little pricey, $1252 invoice/$1600 MSRP, but I liked the style better than the stocks, and I don't have to go shopping for rims and tires right after buing a new car.

Here's some pics of my G | Sport + Aero + 18" 9-spoke:

Here you can see the cutout for the front sonar on the driver side of the lower grille:

I see the cutout you are talking about now. I guess any chin spoiler would interfere with it thus "tech package = no chin spoiler"

Nice looking Graphite Shadow
