What makes a xS different than a plain x?
I'm talking exterior here,
I know that the xS is essentially an appearance package. No offense intended because I think they look great. Which is the essence of this post. I would like to emulate one as much as possible.
I know the chin spoiler (have a regular x one in the mail).
I know the rear spoiler (I kinda like my chrome bustle right now, but we'll see if I can man up and drill metal on my G)
I know the wheels and tires (I have a few in mind, just need to decide)
So what else? Descriptions and part number (if you have them) would be great. Is there side skirting...don't know but the xS looks bad.
Also, I promise NOT to re-badge my regular x.
Thanks,
Sean

Without looking at them side by side you wouldn't notice, it's a very slight difference.
Duck feet are what a lot of people call the 18"wheels that come on the XS sedan, because they look kinda like duck feet.
Yes there is.

The Sport Package had a different headlight assembly, with a chrome finish on the plastic that was a little bit darker than a Sedan without the Sport Package. It really was a stupid feature, because the difference is so subtle as to not matter at all. IMO, they should have used a much darker shade. Either way, it is a real thing, securityguy. Just is.
Last month, somebody on the forum here posted pics of their front-end repair, and were wondering why their new driver's side headlight looks a little bit darker than the old one on the passenger side. Hang on... here's the pic:
LOL. I never grow tired of that.

Yep. No doubt about it. It is darker.
The designer must have thought: "How can I make this different than a regular x...I know, I will very subtly darken the headlights...should be good for another few bucks".
Looks fine though. I like it...but I probably wouldn't have noticed if it weren't pointed out to me.

WOW...unless someone pointed that out you'd never know. As far as the rear spoiler, mine came with it from the factory and I must say it does look awesome and makes a HUGE difference in the cars appearance. I also believe, but may be wrong, that the front seats are different too...mine have a bottom cushion extension so that you can lengthen the cushion for folks with longer legs or wish to have more thigh support. I do not recall seeing those seats on a standard G or Gx.

I agree, the seats are amazing and very comfortable. My 37xS stickered at just over $49K (the original window sticker was in the glove box). Again, loaded with every feature you could check the box on. Found it with just under 13K miles as a CPO. Took the wife to look at new one since I thought she'd like the car. Right out front was this beautiful bright RED 37xS and she fell in love at first sight...even more so than she did with me
It was originally purchased at this dealership and the gentleman that bought it traded it in for a loaded Q50S...go figure as the G blows away the Q. Paid just over $32K. Mint condition...full service history (again only 12K miles) and we've had it now for a while and LOVE it (just hit 24K miles). The interior wood trim adds a nice touch of class and luxury versus the plain aluminum trim. This is the first car she truly wants to keep as we typically replace our cars every 2 years or so. Only "mod" I did was install LED replacement fog lights...makes for a very nice look over the stock halogens. Bought them from iJDMtoy for around $80 and very high quality and perform excellent.
