2LT, worth the money?

I've been reading about 1LT and 2LT but there is no mention of these on the Canadian GM site. We have 1SA and 1SB packages, would these be the same option packages?

If so the 2LT (1SB) gives you,

Sport Suspension

Leather-Wrapped Steering Wheel

Fog Lights

Pioneer Premium Speaker System w/Subwoofer

Bright Chrome Exterior Appearance Package

This is a $2200 (CDN). $1800 USD option. Do you conside this money well spent?

The 2LT is worth it but your 1SB package doesn't sound the same. The 2LT package is $1800 USD and you get:

2.4 engine
sports suspension
bright chrome appearance pkg.
4 wheel ABS
17" wheels
fog lamps
Pioneer 7 speaker premium stero system
redundand radio controls
leather wraped steering wheel / shift knob
auto dim mirror with compass

So it seems like the same cost with less options.

Yes!!! down here it also gives you the 2.4L engine, auto dimming rear view mirror, fog lights, and steering wheel mounted audio controls. Plus some other stuff. When I started looking at buying one, started to add things up and the 2LT was a great deal for the money. (also some things that come on the 2LT peg is not an option on the 1LT or the LS models) Hope this helps.

When I "built my vehicle" and choose 1SA it gives me a 16" chrome wheel option which kicks me over to the "Spring Special " option for an extra $2100.

Ok from past experience with former cars that I've owned and how things are these's days with aftermarket parts. Its always better if you get the bigger base model. However you can have an 2.4 in an 1LT

I didn't even know that mine was a 1LT until a few days ago, thanks CH.

Its got so many options I think the only dif is 16's vs. 17's. Mine are chrome though.

Don't have the 'sport' ride. wish I had that but mine seems to handle well enough for my commute and errands.

I have the 1LT. The only things I don't have are the leather seats, side air bags and Onstar. I am not to crazy about leather seats, but to each his own!
