OK, what is LSD? That sounds like some kind of drugs.

What looks different on the front bumper?

^ both wheels in the rear will spin under normal conditions, but it is condition dependent. if one wheel loses traction, the other wheel gets full traction, etc.

I've seen that difference but wasn't able to correlate that to a S and non-S model. I thought I was just crazy.

I'm in the same faith right now. My lease on my 07 is due and i'm still thinking if i should get the Sport or Non-Sport on my Journey/premium. I like the non-sport bumper, but i like the 19" wheels and big brakes. I don't wanna pay too much and go over my budget on the monthly. And i know i'm getting rims for sure and maybe drop it too. This is so confusing... sigh....

It's gotta be a hard decision especially if you will be replacing some of the parts that is included in the S-model.
I'll probably wear out my stock 19" tires before I think about aftermarket 20's.

I had to go with the S because I'm a snob who can't stand not getting the best....

You got to chose what YOU like best....

Me, I passed on the S. Not worth the extra $ IMO. I'm more into the luxury aspects, the power and sportyness are a bonus. I prefer the looks of the 18in wheels, the 19's look common to me and I know those 19's are going to get torn up on curbs. After taking both S and non-S for an extended ride I thought the S seat was not as comfortable, sides very stiff no matter how tight or loose I had em set, they hurt the sides of my legs after a while. I did like the extended thigh support! The front exterior differences aren't even worth talking about.
