Hmm... where are you located?

If by m-kit you mean the M Aero kit then it's a toss up, you can always add it on later. However if you mean the sport package then don't think twice, get the sport package.

How's that? They offered it to you at $1000 installed? Invoice for m-kit installed at the port is around $2461 according to other posts here. MSRPis like $3285.

The $1600 part price is just that, for a box (well, 3 boxes) of parts.

Yeah, $1080 is for parts only. You have to get them painted and installed. Search the forums for what others have paid. It may be more than the parts themselves cost. Guaranteed your dealer will charge more.

Same. I would get Comfort Access. You can't add it again later on. M-tech kit can be added, so it's no big deal.

Get the M Kit. Its much more expensive than the $1,000 BTW. You will pay well over $2K by the time you are done. The comfort access is a total waste of money IMHO.
