    So are all of the "Special Editions" considered "Final Editions" or is there a numbered series of "Final Special Editions" like 2002 ?

    I'm not a huge fan of the CF exterior. I really like the plain black. The exterior CF is just too much CF for me. At first, I liked the CF interior, but after seeing pics of the champagne interior pieces it really grew on me and I decided not to go the CF route. I do think the CF x brace is cool, but didn't want to spend the cash on something hidden under the hood. The weight savings is nice. I guess I'm just going to have to upgrade "the nut" behind the steering wheel and drop 9 lbs from it. It could probably loose 15 lbs.

    I get why people want and like the CF, but for me the price did not justify it. At the end of the day, I love all these different combos. Can't go wrong with whatever you get.

This was the same reason they did not use the SWII's and had to come up with an ACR specific wheel.
    I understand you're very serious, but you haven't provided any info to back up your claim

    When the engineers say it is the same stiffness, that means it's the same. Doesn't matter what car it's bolted to. The wheels are different, and they have different stiffness, hence the reason the ACR wheels are needed with the higher loads.
