Default Performance or Enthusiast?

I'm trying to decide between the Performance or the Enthusiast Model. The Performance Model adds the 18" wheels, VDC, and tire pressure monitor. I really like the factory 18's that come with the Performance, but can careless about the other two items. I'm having hard time justifying the extra $2k for Performance. BTW, what's the width for the Performance wheel?

2k is a lot for the rim upgrade. I am biased as I chose Enthusiast, so take this at face value. I know there are several people already looking to ditch their 18's to get some Rays or aftermarket rims. My advice would be to buy the Enthusiast, and pick up those rims from someone else and put the money into mods.

I ordered a performance, but my dealer messed up and got me an enthusiast. You know... in the end I'm sort of glad. Not only is it cheaper, now I dont have to worry about buying 17" rims and snow tires for the winter.. I can just get the tires. I also think that the 17" will be stronger, which is good for me because some roads in NY are bad.

I've also never had a car with VDC, so I wont miss it. Traction control is enough for me, and on my current car, I usually turn that off as soon as I get into the car (unless its snowing out).
